My latest obsession



So far today, I've been looking over ebay
to add to my scrapbooking collection. I keep thinking that one day, I'll finish making scrapbooks for my kids, our wedding, my mother-in-law's 60th birthday party. So far all I've really done is make a few cool cards for folks.

Right now what I really want to buy is a new paper cutter. Not just anyone mind you, but a guillotine style one. One that can cause a maximum of damage to the little fingers in my life. The one to the left is made by Tonic Studios, depending on where I go, the price has been anywhere from $38 - 55.

Scrapbooking in general is a dream hobby for me because I have a pen and paper fetish. So many pretty papers, pens to write with, stamps and ink pads, doo-dads to embellish my cards or scrapbook pages I do manage to finish.

One of these days I'll have my fill of this stuff and move onto a new obsession.

come on, you've wanted to buy more than that today.

i have a suggestion, how about a cutting mat, ruler and an exacto knife? i use them for hobbies, and it's a great way to make long, straight cuts:

just combine that with a metal ruler and a sharp knife. useful for alot of other stuff too.. like right angles and measurements. and easy to store. have you bought one yet??
