Good Monday Morning Ladies,
What a wet & wild day yesterday was, the wind & rain didn't give up all day. Luckily it didn't hamper our day. Let's face it nothing comes between a girl and her craft shopping.
The show was small which was a bonus for me getting round, it was busy when we arrived but quietens down after lunch, which us when we got most of our shopping done.
I didn't get many things from my list, there was no A3 card white 300gsm, no decent double sided tape, the low tack tape I did see seemed expensive, I also wanted another temporary adhesive glue runner for my stamps that don't like to stick to my block, but no joy there either. There was only one stand out of 22 that had Distress inks, so no good prices to be had, I think the days of 'show day bargains ' are a thing of the past. I got some lovely things, mostly from The Art of Craft, I wanted to have a go at one of the layered stencils, so I picked a Lisa Horton one that comes with a die and embossing folder, the lady that owns the shop said that she created all of the samples (which were amazing) without using the tool that is made for them, so I took the plunge. The John Lockwood die looked lovely on the samples as did the woodware stamp.
I will share Maria & Sue's shopping when I get both of their photos, it was so lovely to catch up x
I am looking forward to playing with my new things, it may have to wait though as I didn't think I would struggle so much physically as I did on Sunday, maybe to the last weeks 'issues' I was drained.
I hope that you all had a good weekend,
Love & hugs to all of you,
