Hello, my name is Debby and I’m a stash horder! I like to be neat and tidy (ish) but my propensity to keep things ‘just in case’ has meant that over the years I’ve been crafting my collection of craft items has grown out of control! I took last year’s Online Card Class kick start which was filled with inspirational ideas on how to get your mojo going. One of the elements of the class was organising your craft space and knowing what you have. With that aim I set about tackling my patterned paper collection; I went through and cut down part used pieces of 12×12 papers into 6×6 pieces which I find more useful for card making. I have more paper than I could ever use in a million years so I have collected together some piles of about 100 6×6 pieces to give away! The papers come from the usual big name Paper Crafting brands but are mainly from older collections.
I’m trying to be realistic in what time I have to tackle my stash but my aim over the next few weeks/months is to sort out what I still want to keep and what I want to giveaway. I’m starting today with my paper giveaway and due to weight this giveaway is restricted to UK followers only. Sorry international friends, but your time will come; once I’ve tackled the paper mountain I’m planning on the embellishment breeding ground next and being lighter in weight I will post those items anywhere :)
So if you are one of my followers living in the UK and fancy a stack of 6×6 papers then please leave a comment below :)
Edited to add – this giveaway is now closed.
I prefer collector vs hoarder! Good for you that you are strong enough to part with some of your stash! I do like your idea of cutting to 6×6 – I may do this too!
I’m not in the UK but really wanted to stop in and say good for you Debby! I need to do the same. I might like hanging out in my craft room a bit more then lol.
Good luck with your culling.

International follower .. but just wanted to say.. the idea of cutting down that 12*12 into 6*6 is great.. I am gonna do it this weekend :)
I would describe myself as a paper enthusiast lol. So you give away is right up my street :). Fabulous idea which I will save for the day I have “too much”. Thank you for the chance and yes, I live in the UK and visit your fabulous blog for inspiration :).

Hi Debbie, what a good idea cutting down your papers. I love dp so thanks for your generous giveaway. x
how wonderful.i’ve just discovered your blog through a craft mag and am new to cardmaking. my stash is small and growing slowly – pay day by pay day so would love some papers to get me stocked and ready to go! thanks.
Hi Debbie, I live in U.S, I know it is not for international, but I am newbie to craft and really have very low paper collection and I love DP’s..
