When you buy paper - Page 2

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.

Three: One to use, one in case I screw up the first one and one to add to my collection

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!

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 . . .

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!

I think it depends on how much I like it and if it is more of a seasonal paper...

Almost always 2..

SBcrazee · Wed May 07, 2008 12:25 pm

Just one usually.

Bernadettte · Wed May 07, 2008 3:53 pm

One of each, but then my layouts are really busy and i don't normally use to much patterned paper.

rebajane · Wed May 07, 2008 4:08 pm

I usually buy two...but I cant remember the last time I bought paper. Not this year. Love the new stuff tried to buy it but they didnt have it. Figures.

bskts4ver · Wed May 07, 2008 9:23 pm

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

Wed May 07, 2008 10:22 pm

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.

butterfly843 · Thu May 08, 2008 7:56 pm

I usually buy 2, but if I really like it I buy 4.

ChrisPozzi · Thu May 08, 2008 8:03 pm

[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!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

katarria · Thu May 08, 2008 8:06 pm

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.

depends on how much i like it lol...i bought enough of K and Co the pretty one that is aqua, lavendar with butterflies and such on it..i bought enough to do an entire album out of it...come to think of it 2 because 1 is already completed lol
