New Year's Resolution 2011- Recap!

Hi Y'all!
Do you remember I have a New Year's Resolution to reduce my Patterned Paper stash and scrap stash by 20%? And if I buy any papers throughout the year I have to add them to the target too? Well, I thought i would give you a re-cap as to how I am going, seeing as we are half way through the year already! Where has time flown to? {looking off into the distance with hand against forehead}
So using up my Patterned paper stash is going really well! I (shamefully) had over 500 papers at the beginning of the year and I have used up 10%, so for half way through the year that makes me right on target! Unfortunately it's not going as well for my scrap stash! I have only used 2.8% of my total stash, instead of the 10% I should have reached by now. EEEK! {hiding under the table in shame!} I really need to work on that one a bit more. I was pleased I managed to not even look at the papers at the Quilt show the other day! I really don't need any more in my stash!
I did make a bunch of cards yesterday which would have used a few more scraps! Maybe I should just go through them and throw some in the bin! I have a compulsion to keep even the smallest scrap thinking "I can stamp a sentiment on that!" I think I'm a hoarder!
And here is your Friday pic of our little man! It's from a long time ago, when he was still a tiny 3 week old Bub! Oh he is such a cutie! He was even too small for his 0000 clothes and used to wiggle a shoulder out!

Enjoy your weekend!!

Well done with the 12x12s! At least your scrap stash hasn't increased. Cos that would obviously be cheating... And great restraint at the fair!

He he he... that shoulder is so cute and nibbleworthy.
