You Know You're Addicted to Scrapbooking If...

·         When you reach into your purse, your family scatters - they think you are reaching for that dreaded camera!
·         You see something metal in a parking lot or on the floor and you go back to pick it up. It turns out to be some sort of buckle/pop tab type of thing, so you pop it in your pocket, and think - yeah, I can put some ribbon through that.
·         You purchase every scrap magazine that hits the shelf, even though more than half the layouts in some are NOT your style.
·         You dream about layouts or crops.
·         You buy scrapbook "stuff" and have no idea how you are going to use it but think, "I will use it someday."
·         When you start scanning kids clothes because they would make great inspiration for a scrapbook page.
·         When you spend all day at work/school sketching layouts instead of working/studying.
·         You know you're addicted when you find an awesome piece of paper and actually DRESS your child up for pictures in clothes to MATCH THE PAPER.
·         You know you're addicted when your husband runs into the local eatery yelling "I need water....my truck's on fire!" And your first response is, "WAIT! I have the camera!"
·         You plan vacations around scrapbook stores or drive 175 miles to a scrapbook store.
