Well, there is a 12 step program, but it's geared more towards 12 steps to bigger and better scrapbook shopping. 
Otherwise known as totally enabling.  |

I just started shopping on Etsy and found a bunch of little things, ordered them, and they're arriving every other day or so... Small things that fit through the mail slot, but I don't get a lot of mail so I'm sure the postman is wondering what changed... Love the surprise though - even if I did pick it out myself  | |

I received an order yesterday, another (very small, one stamp) order today, and my Two Peas order should arrive Monday or Tuesday. That is why I decided I needed to join the frozen Peas for a while! | |

Checking in! I've shopped so much for scrap stuff this month it's not even funny. Went to A's last night & hubs was giving me the stink eye when I walked in with yet another bag of goodies. I can't help myself, it's all so pretty!!! |

I have a few things coming also. It makes me feel better to hear you have seven wink wink. I can cross one off I got today. So only really all my SC orders from last two days which at least will be in one box- not as hard to explain. | |

OMG - I seriously thought it was just me. I also have developed a problem with this MB....somone needs to do something about this. In just the last week, I have been to 5 stores shopping, and placed like 8-10 orders online, it's all useful, and great deals, but I really think i have a problem | |

Me too! I received I know 8 packages in Feb and that did not include my 2 monthly kits and my stamp sub. I do feel a little guilty and I am trying not to buy anything else for a while but there is so much more I want! | |

I tried being a frozen pea at the beginning of the new year, and only lasted a couple days.  I have a kit, some dies, and an order on its way to me. Plus, I'm going to A's. I've promised myself that I'll only spend $25 today, which means it will probably be more like $45. Lol |

I've been a wee bit out of control myself. 
I did a lot of reorganizing/redecorating of my studio, so that was a large part of it. But honestly, I just LOVE some of the new lines like Yes, Please and MME Collectables. And then there was the BG and the Heidi Swapp stuff.
In fact MME has been my downfall with a lot of their lines. And I actually use it. I guess it suits my scrapping style.
Sigh. It's all so pretty. |

I am blaming it on the winter blues, receiving those packages in the mail helps lift my mood in this crappy weather. I have gone overboard the last month and I am still waiting on 2 packages (one of them is supposed to come Saturday when everybody is home...eeek! LOL).
In fact MME has been my downfall with a lot of their lines. And I actually use it. I guess it suits my scrapping style.
I just had to have the My Girl line right away, but of course I haven't used it yet.

What are we going to do? Lol I'm do glad I'm not in this boat alone. My J's never got the BG lines but I guess that's less to spend. I've gotten so many great deals that its so hard to pass up. So I tell myself that I'm realllllly saving money hope you girls have fun scrapping your new stashes. | |

I'm sailing with you. I have 4 orders in transit, 1 which is held up with some back ordered items, I just received 2 packages and I picked up a stack of thickers last night.
I need to scrapbook. That seems to slow down the shopping. | |

I got my ATG tape order last night! I was so excited. On a whim, I had ordered some foam tape, which I use instead of pop dots. I ordered because it was like 2 something a roll. let me tell you, the roll is bigger than a dinner plate! So excited! I have foam tape FOREVER!!
Also - I bought 10 more packs of thickers today, and ordered washi....

I'm with you!!! When my alarm goes off at 4:30 am, I immediately grab my phone to see what online scrappin deals have come over my email!! I can take an Ambien, fall asleep on the couch, my hubby puts me to bed, and immediately I wake up , grab my phone and start pea'ing! (He thinks I've lost it.) And this week alone.... I've had an order in my cart I swear I've looked at a million times and had to force myself to stop from ordering it. What's WRONG with me!!!!!! |

I have been home with a cold for almost a week. So that means I was on the computer for a few days nonstop. I *think* I have 2 packages/orders outstanding, but it may be 3. I tried to order some digital stamps today, but the shopping cart didn't work.
Anyone else ever have trouble at blockheadstamps dot com? If I had been able to complete that order it would have made something for each day this week. |

I definitely have a problem. I went to A's today meaning only to spend about $25, and I came out of the store $84 lighter. I must've left my self control in the car. but the stuff I got is so pretty |

It's without a doubt a true addiction for me. I get a true high from shopping for SB stuff and just the feel of sorting papers makes me smile... Scary. Maybe the paper makers are putting crack on the paper...??? LOL | |

uhhh...I feel caught red-handed now
thing is, I order from various sources and then it never feels like spending too much..well at least at first.
I just need more time to use all this lovely stuff...I fall for any new craze much too easily.  |

Mmmmhmmmmm.... I just dropped another $100. I went in the grab a few sheets of green card stock! What the heck!
I did see an awesome post today, something like "I'm sorry! I know you call it therapy, but the IRS won't let you write your scrapbooking off as a medical therapy!" |
