Retail therapy!

Hello,
I read on Trimcraft forum that Dufex has gone bust and wanted to go to a local stationery shop to see if they had any more Dufex nativity decoupage like I bought there a few months ago. Unfortunately they didn't have what I went for BUT they did have 3 bargain bins. Seem to be getting rid of a lot of stock and I bought over £30 worth of card packs, mainly A6, at half price - packs of Dufex cards and envelopes worth £3.99 for £1. Also bought some packs of papers, including monochrome and baby patterns plus a few embellishments and other bits. Have to admit to spending rather more than I had intended but it helped take my mind off the fact that I'm waiting for a mammogram etc after finding a lump recently.
Also my Forever Friends baby bear stamp(the one brought by the stork) arrived today from Sue/Hello Gorgeous. She is selling her craft stash to concentrate on jewellery making and there are bargains to be had :)

Now I really need a reorganisation of craft space so I know what I've got!

Hope your week is good so far. Thanks for popping by.

Friendship card


Hello there!
I'm still waiting to find time to have a go at the gift bag I mentioned before - have missed the deadline for the Trimcraft challenge but never mind. Maybe this weekend I can squeeze some time in. I made this card for a ribbon swap over on Trimcraft - hope my partner likes it. Am eagerly awaiting the postie for mine in return as we've had no post for two days now, so hopefully tomorrow. However, I had a delivery from Crafts U Love and have used some of my new stash on this card: Stampendous Blossom Brackets clear stamps, Labels 9 Nestabilities (my first set)and EK Success retro flower punches, large and medium size. Thanks for looking and I hope you'll be back.
