I did it again! I did what I said I wouldn't do.  I went crazy with CHA new releases! I got a great deal of Crate Paper Maggie Holmes Confetti, Crate Paper Craft Market, Crate Paper Journey, Shimelle Cottage Living and even Amy Tan Rise and Shine. As soon as Cassie Box said she loaded these items in store, it was like I was possessed.  I was COMPELLED to go over there and add a gazillion items to my cart and check out! I still have lines here, that I haven't even opened.  With that being said, I will NOT be purchasing ANYTHING ELSE, until July! I have to use up some of this product I have. This is ridiculous!!!!! Especially when I am trying to DOWNSIZE my stash!

Is anyone else like this! and now I want all of the dylusional paints, now I may get those along with the last 2 of the new HS sprays! but, I will not buy anything else, I don't care HOW CUTE it is! I have to stop!!!!!  and the fact that I got a new job, making GREAT MONEY, makes it even more accessible and tempting.  Don't get me wrong, my hubby had no problem supporting my hobby, but I would sometimes feel bad at all the money I was spending.  Now......it's so easy for me to buy whatever I want, when I want! but, I am not going to do that anymore.  I have a HUGE CRAFT ROOM, and I have to often Purge or buy new storage to hold all of my stuff! I need to get BACK TO THE BASICS, EXERCISE SOME SELF CONTROL, AND CRAFT MORE.......AND SHOP LESS.

Am I the only one who feels this way?????? Please comment your thoughts below!
Btw, I got all of my goodies from Paper Issues.  CASSIE BOX ROCKS!!! Use coupon code INSTAGRAM for 20% off.
Until next time...
