Do you save every little piece of paper or does it need to be a
minimum size? If so what size?
Do you save PP and CS or just CS?

Yeah...I did the same thing and realized it was a problem when I
had more scraps than regular stuff!
I pretty much only save CS scraps now and they need to be at
least 4x6.
I'll save larger PP...at least half the sheet must be left.

I used to save all scraps, now when I scrap I only safe pieces
large enough to use on a card or to cut embellies from with a
die cut system. I was thinking of throwing them all away, but I
may make a "scrap box" for a giveaway soon. Watch for it
ladies.

Unfortunately, I save EVERYTHING. When I scrap 2 pg LO's for my
travel albums, I usually use up to 20 pics per LO. That doesn't
leave a lot of room for paper. Also, since I started making note
cards for my Etsy store, I can use up to the smallest of strips
as accents, so it's hard for me to get rid of anything. :-P
I also keep any size green scrap of cardstock to use for leaves.

I save it all. I sort it out into 2 boxes. One for prints one
for solids. Then the papers are sorted by color in ea box.
I really have a problem!!!

I save almost all of mine too, mostly cardstock for cutting out
letters with my Sizzix. The pp I save goes back into the bag
with the other papers from that line. I've started keeping all
my pp's together in clear bags organized by maker and by line.
Sure helps a lot!

I should say that I throw away pieces that cannot be cut back
into a square or rectangle. I do keep both, but I make tons of
cards all year, so I don't have that many left overs. I like the
idea that someone had, I think it was Diana, to make a card or
in my case a tag with the leftovers as soon as you finish your
layout while it's all still on the desk color coordinated and
everything.

I have a lot of stuff. just....a lot of stuff...I have gotten
better about getting rid of things that I KNOW I wont re-use
again. But we have many kids around with projects and such, so
things DO get used.
Speaking of that - I donated a ton to Gracie's GirlScout troop
as well, they're making thank you cards to give out with their
cookies ;)
