In My last blog, #7 – My Must-have-go-to-tools, I compared my paper crafting tools to my kitchen tools.  The same can almost be done too with supplies/ingredients.  Of course, you have the basics that you have to have like paper, cardstock, photos, and adhesive – compare to butter, flour, sugar, and eggs...

How much "stuff" do you really have?  Boxes and boxes full?  Of things you just can't get rid of? What about that so called 'junk-drawer' in the kitchen.  C'mon.  We all have one.  Batteries, papers, old mail, screwdrivers...just full of...stuff!
