Where did September go!!!

I honestly have no idea where September went. I know I went on holiday but that was only a week lol.
Well in the last month I did my usual and done shopping!! I will post my hauls the next few days....

There have been some good bargains and I just couldn't resist....

Today I went into the works and they have some fab papers around!

And got a complete bargain... the decoupsge paper pad by docrafts were only £2!!!

Thanks for visiting.....

Haul haul and more haul

I seriously think I have a problem..... I bought more things!!!

This shape is from everycraftapound website.... I love this website... I get some tabby deals in this... normally things should costs 3 or 4 times the value of the rrp.... most of the time it's cos the products are last season.... but I don5 ,one... don't think there's necessary an in thing for crafting right?

I got 11 sets of dies 2 stamps sets 3 embossing folders 5 paper pads 1 is a5 size and the 1 is 8x8, 3 are 12 x12! 3 x of the building flakes as well.... (saw a video on This and thought I want to try but the nuvou box is 5 quid rrp and I'd like at least 2 colours thought that was about much so been keeping an eye out.... they have these in plastic boxes so did get messy but I think it cos me way less than 1 quid. 

Anyway I got this lot came to under 45 quid. So impressed with the value and the service. So would highly recommend everycraftapound.

This next lot is from craftstash.. . Oh man I found this site from magazines in May and since then I just been shopping far too much from there!

Loving the stamps though can't wait to play.... the service and value is good too..... 

Well finally... I got This lot from Poundland... been wanting it for a while as other crafters got them and shared on hauls finally found them...actually I sent my hubby out to look near his work lol

Well happy crafting and shopping lovely crafters..... off to make an anniversary card.... poops late again!

More haul and new idea of mini ink pad storage

Well the last week I done some shopping and also had an idea, so my credit card company is loving me just now!

Below is a selection of things I bought - a couple are a complete bargain and looking to put them to good use shortly. I was very lucky as there was a fellow crafter browsing - but for some reason she didn't spot it or don't want it, so I'm glad I've picked it up!

The docrafts goodie bag.... I picked this up for £4.99 at the Range.....

Look at try amount of goodies in it... Loving my bargain and looking to use it 😁

At the Range I picked up other crafty things... mainly paper..... and foam... these are just black and white and brown.... for £1 that was pretty good....  will be using these as to give project dimension especially for larger item

I shopped at the works and Poundland as well great deals there if you have one nearby 

Online shopping is a wonderful thing and dangerous.... recently found a great online shop called craft stash.. . Their prices are very good so made quite a few orders there recently... got some back issues of magazines which had great gifts and also some new Christmas baubles dues that's really cool.... would red recommend this shop if you need anything... I do shop around before deciding to buy too lol

 

 

Create and craft is also good... esp when they have capped shipping offer on. I ended up getting some 12x12 white card and some art glitter glue.... they sound fab but only seem to be available from America..  anyway create and craft have it so I thought I would try it out 😁

Right lovely people... im off to craft.

Happy crafter!!!

New cards and some haul

I seen a haul video lately and they said poundland was selling this washi tape - which I really liked the look of, so I asked my OH to have a look for me yesterday as I didn't fancy just going out to the one shop when is just by his office... anyway I love radio shopping lol - with technology today its great, he took pictures of the washi tapes and I called him and told him which ones liked!

Excellent :)
Loving that I'm getting back into card making - made a few - some are decoupage cards, some I've been playing with my die cuts and seeing how what different things I can do. 

Happy crafting! 

Crafting Haul - July 2018

There's one thing that I can think of that's not good at getting started back on my favourite hobby.... my bank balance!!! Been playing lots and also surfing online and getting ideas lots, so ended up buying lots of fabby craft products so I can play.... they are abit of a bargain too so its not too bad I suppose....

So below are some of the items I have bought recently!

So I've been looking at distress ink a lot, but I didn't really have the space for the large ink pads so wanted to get the mini ones..... I went to a local-ish store called Rejects, and spotted these - they were such a bargain - £4.35 for each pack!! I couldn't believe it so I bought the 4 different ones they had on the shelf, was quite proud of my wee bargain there.

 This Hero Art's ink pad set - I love, I've seen some lovely layering stamping completed by other crafters and loved it - so I bought this to start - I have some layering flowers which I got last month, so these will be perfect with it. I got these of Amazon via one of the 3rd party companies which I've used many times - its supermart USA. I've not had a problem yet, and it normally arrives within 2 weeks. I think I paid around £6 for this set.

So with my day job, there are times when I need to work away, and earlier this month, I was away for a few days and had just one too many coffee!! LOL I ended up staying later than I wanted and spotted one of the company I liked on Facebook that they had a wee sale on, so popped on the website to have a look and ended up spending another 13 quid! It's brilliant for the amount I got though! I got the free gift for club members, which are ice cream/dessert toppers card set, a stamp set, some 3d foam squares (im running low!) 2 magazines which came with free toppers/card making set as well... So looking forward to using these. These were from Hunky Dory website

In the last few months, I found my favourite craft shop!! I dread to think how much I have spent with them so far!! The store is called craft stash, and the things they have are brilliant - the above 2 pics are just a selection of what I bought recently, I got too excited and started playing with others before I took a picture. 

So been playing with my perfect pearls that I had with dovecraft, what I found with those was that it left a point bit when I lift and I have to flick it to flatten, so tried the Nuvo drops and they were brilliant - it didn't leave the point, so ended up buying more from Craftstash as they were really good price... think they are £2.99 RRP but they were selling some at £1.99.. what I found was that they were doing an offer where if you get 3 for £5! so I ended up getting 6 lol.... then beside it I also bought the Nuvo crystal glaze as well. 

In their bargain section I found those dies for 2 for £2!! they're normally over 4.99 each so well chuffed with those and will be playing with them shortly!! 

As I said I have bought more things but not had a chance to take a photo before I started playing.... oops!! next time Im sure I have more in the post to come lol!

Off to do some crafting now - will take some pics of the cards I made, some are from kits others are new techniques I'm trying out after seeing some crafting videos.

Toodles!
