I thought this would be a great discussion to start and maybe we can get new ideas to bring into our projects or learn ways to spice up our old way of doing things.
My most favorite scrapbooking product are glue dots. They adhere die cuts, embellishments, buttons, flowers.. anything with ease! Its easy to put ribbons on too. I buy the kits with different size glue dots, some are 3D, some are tiny, some are larger.
It makes it easy to do projects quickly-- and theres no wait time for drying.
So what are your favorite scrapbooking items?

Oh, that is a hard question. I rubber stamp more than I scrap, but I love those glue dots, too, and I wish I had discovered them long before I did...lol. Who knew?!? They have multi packs with different sizes...? 
Hmmm...I like my Creative Memories cutting system...I just wish they would come out with more. I have every single one ever made, I believe. My newest toy is the Big Shot.

That's a hard one to answer. I'm into different types of brads at the moment. Small to large, makes no difference to me. They come in so many colors and shapes now. I do like the look of metal embelishmens on a page.

Brads can be used to fasten paper together - like velum to cardstock or as an accent. You can also use them to attach flowers to a page as well. I added a photo of some of my brads. I hope you can see them okay. I like them because you only need a hole punch, unlike eyelets when you need to have a punch and setter. Not that it matters because I have those too, but it's one less step. You need to pull and squash the ends so it will lay nice and flat. Thanks for asking! :)

I've always liked brads for scrapbooking. Funnily enough my husbands name is Brad. Recently I've discovered memory makers shimmer brads. I love them. I ordered a bunch from Joann.com because they are on sale. If you like glittery things you should check them out. They look really nice with Prima flowers.

3-D stickers and prima flowers. And a zillion other things because I have become a scrapbooking adict. I wish i could find someone near me who is into it as much as I am. I've found though in about 80% of my layouts lately I am using the 3d stickers and flowers.

Right now, I am loving the diecut punch out alphabet. I bought a whole package of 60 sheets with over 3100 letters from Wal-mart for under $6. I use them on so many pages. The pack that I bought has two different styles of letters, with 30 different colors and patterns. These can really jazz up your pages.

my favorite items are simple ones other than the pictures and things I use, but I love buttons and ribbon. I use the so much and stickers too. I search for perfect stickers for all occasions that I could use throughout any of the books i am working on. I love everything about scrapbooking so it's hard to say what I like the most.

I haven't really got going on scrapbooking yet, but I bought my sister a sizzix set with loads of different shapes a few years ago, and I'm thinking about buying one for myself now as I love playing with it so much.
I do enjoy playing around with all sorts of different patterns & textures of paper. I think finding something around the home which can be reused in a design is probably the most fun for me. Free too!!

I love patternedpapers and flower embellishments a lot! I don't own that much cardstocks because I am having a hard time using it. As for the flowers, I guess majority of my layouts have at lease one flower!
