Re: When you buy paper
I too, buy one of a sheet of pp. Even if it is one sided I usually only use part of it and flip it for the other side. I also cut out the cent of a background piece so I have more to play with on the next page.

Re: When you buy paper
One usually and if I buy two I add it to the collection for a bit and eventually it migrates to the kid's collection... it hurts less to share it with them when I've had the second sheet sitting around for a while. Not that i'm a hoarder of paper or anything! ![Wink :bluewinkb:](./images/smilies/smileblue_wink_b_16.png)

Re: When you buy paper
Back in the day I used to always buy two. Now I only buy one. Probably because I'm making more one pagers now than two pagers. I only buy multiple sheets if I am making an album and want a bunch of matching stuff. I hate to reuse paper from layout to layout . . .

Re: When you buy paper
I only buy 1 of each sheet, but if it has a coordinating sheet then I buy that too b/c I hate searching to find something to match!

Re: When you buy paper
I think it depends on how much I like it and if it is more of a seasonal paper...

Re: When you buy paper
I usually buy two also. I do alot of 2-page layouts and even then I can usually stretch it depending on the project.

Stacks and stacks! LOL! Seriously... if they sold them in packages of a dozen, I would probably be broke now. With the cost of everything going up... .*sigh*, I have to settle with one sheet at a time.

Re: When you buy paper
[quote="suslvgeo"] When I first started I always bought two, in case I messed up. Now I only buy one and if I mess up, I take it as a challenge to myself to work around it. lol
only exception is if it is a double-sided paper and I love both sides...then I get two.[/quote]this is what i do!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: When you buy paper
I buy one, that way I can hoard more designs/patterns instead of duplicate sheets!
No, really though - I used to buy two of each but have been doing less 2-page layouts and found I am not using more than one sheet anymore. Like the others, if I really like both sides I'll get two.
