Downsizing my scrapbook stash

And wow!

Decisions decisions.

Here is my scrappy space.

I love my scrappy space and everything is white

is mine all mine!

I have a lot to get rid of.

My awesome husband bought this brand new toolbox.

It's pretty cool actually and it'll allow to

scrap inside or outside.

As you can see from this post I have rearranged my

12x12 albums to give to the kids/grandkids.

I then decided that 8.5x11 would be more storable especially

doing it project life style with some 8.5x11 size

tossed in for variety.

Also, I'll be using traveler's notebooks for well 

whatever floats my boat. 

We'll see how that works. And they'll be

a lot more storable.

I also purchased a new paper trimmer - mine was 12x8 size

and that would be too cumbersome to store.

 I did take the trimmer out of the top drawer and added

some punches instead.

Carefully culling through I decided not to go with 

shapes like squares because I can use the

trimmer for that so I can bring more variety in 

things I'm not talented in, i.e., like birds, butterflies, my

favorite sunburst/fireworks things like that.

I also tossed in my circle scissor that'll give me a

variety sized circles and it takes up less space than 

several heavy punches.

And then there's my super satchel for paper, alphas, 

cut aparts, and all kinds of embellishments.

I also went through my assortment of PL cards and

tossed them in.

I went with recollections 8.5x11 cardstock and added

a lot of 12x12 papers that I purchased prior to the

whole RV living thing.

Pink Fresh, new Hip kit - that I changed from scrapbook kit

to project life. 

I had 3 die cutters; a big shot, QK revelution and squeeze.

I chose to bring the big shot since it does all the dies

it seemed to be the best choice and again I

have chosen dies that lend to things I'm not artistic

enough to pull off.

We haven't stopped long enough to really break it out.

Overnight stops aren't really enough time and I'm usually

too worn out to even think about it.

We will be back in NJ for about 4-6 weeks so I'll

be breaking things out to see if I packed well.

The plan is to take my IKEA Alex drawer and put it in the 

coach - that'll eliminate the super satchel and it'll add more storage.

Also it's perfect for my canon printer.

I also have a selphy but I'd really like the option of

being able to print 8.5x11 size photos so.... we'll see how

well that rides.
