    i can’t scrap w/out my kraft paper and cardboard–i’m totally addicted to them–then next would be my adhesives and stazon ink–love it–by the way, i need to go buy some more–i used it so much i’m running out–i would love to try those stamps out–wooo-hooo!

    I cannot scrap without my cutter. Without that there is no way to cut straight lines. LOL….Also, adhesive….and we all know we couldn’t live without that!

    i need my paper trimmer and cardstock/paper. i’m always trimming the paper or cardstock. too many papers to choose and i’m a hoarder of paper so i had to stop buying unless it’s for a specific project.

    I can’t be without my cutterbee scissors. I am always cutting out elements from patterned paper to use as embellishments and those little scissors are the best!

    My must-have item is my paper trimmer and I LOVE my fiskars self healing mat — it protects my table and I can just cut right on it and no need to get our something else. Originally bought it for quilting, but use it for scrapping more!

    I cannot scrap without inspiration. It’s the mojo that keeps everything flowing. And my glue. I’m sure I could come up with something I like using just my imagination and glue.

    I absolutely have to “start” with Bazzill cardstock. Sure, I love my patterned papers, but I could make dozens of layouts with just Bazzill.
    Thanks!

    I can’t scrap without my paper trimmer. And, lately, staples. I’m not sure why- maybe the back-to-school season has subconsiously weaseled its way into my brain.

    I can’t scrap without MUSIC…I need something playing in the background…or in my iPod (my beloved iPod has died, and I’m sad)…since I sometimes do digi-scrapping, I can’t pinpoint a tool…so music has to be the common ground!
