Fun New Scrapbooking Terms

OK...once again it's been WAAAY too long since I've posted. So here's a fun bunch of new scrapping terms defined for us. And come back this weekend, I'll have some new layouts posted of Erica...I promise!!! Oh, and I don't know where these terms came from. I saw them on a forum I visit and the person who posted it didn't share her source. I'll update the source as soon as I find out.
  • Scraptrum: The full range of 37 different shades of paper between light blue and medium blue.
  • Catscraptrophe: The combination of Murphy's Law as applied to cats' natural curiosity, occurring 30 seconds after you leave your scrapping supplies unattended on the table to visit the bathroom.
  • Scraplooking: The scrapper's second-favorite hobby, when the visit to the scrapbook store comes BEFORE payday.
  • Scrapitulate: To buy scrapbooking materials with that last twenty bucks you said you weren't going to spend.
  • Scrapdashery: The art of risking a traffic ticket when the decision to scrapitulate comes as sudden inspiration while sitting at home just before the local scrapbook store closes.
  • Scrapplication: The art of tuning out bothersome distractions (family, work, etc.) and concentrating fully on your project.
  • Scraptivity: Solitude (generally self-imposed) preventing one from engaging in lesser activities until the current project has been completed.
  • Scraptain: The leader of a small group of scrapping friends, who usually decides what the day's project will be.
  • Scrapperpillar: The project you're completely disgusted by, until it metamorphoses into a beautiful finished work.
  • Scraptice: If at first you don't succeed...
