When you became a digital scrapper, did you get rid of your stuff? (papers, punches, stickers, idea books, stamps, ect???????) Did you regret eliminating your stuff?

I am seriously thinking of doing away with all my stuff!
TIA,
Cindy

I got rid of a lot of my "elements" - brads, eyelets, chalks. I kept all the papers, stickers, & IDEA BOOKS! The papers & stickers are great for kids projects. I use cardstock for printing cards. Idea books are great whether you are paper or digital. I go to the LSS looking specifically for idea books.

I got rid of 90% of my stuff after 6 months of digiscrapping. It was just bothering me so much to have it there and not be used. Once I got it out of the house, it was like a weight was lifted, I didn't have to think about it anymore. I still have my stamps and cardstock from my StampinUp days, but I think I will use that again once I get DS's baby book done. But my scrapbooking papers and stickers and stuff (I had a TON) are gone and I don't miss them! I did keep my idea books, but I may thin them out too, since some of my older ones (5-6 years ago) seem a little out of date with all the techniques and stuff that have come out since then. Sell your stuff and use the $ to buy some stuff for digiscrapping (kits, hardware, camera lens, etc) and don't look back!

I've sold some of it... probably gotten $300 or so, but i have tons more to sell... just need to find the time, motivation to get it on ebay or whatever. I've no regrets yet. prolly will keep some papers and some things i think i'd still use.

I kept mine and got more stuff because I still paper scrap, too! It find it fun to make little mini albums, plus my daughter and my oldest son's albums are paper. But I just do event pages for them in those now.

I still have all of my paper stuff because I also still have boxes of film-produced pictures I need to scrap. Since I started digiscrapping, I can't seem to bring myself to drag all my paper supplies out so it all sits in my closet just waiting......
