Exhausted

Had a brilliant day out yesterday - went to Stamperama. Well, it's held in my local leisure centre so it would be rude not to go LOL Met up with a few forum buddies - Claire, Kerrie and my UKScrappers teamie Gemma, who was working very hard on the Stampin Up stand ;o) - I got a catalogue and have started a wish list :o)

I did buy a few other little bits. Before I show piccies, I just have to say that I got loads of bargains. Some of the Penny Black stamps were reduced from £7.95 to £2.95 or even £1.95. Very very happy with me bargains LOL







Also got the Stampin Up Stamp-a-ma-jig that Kerrie ordered for me and it's brilliant. Although, I was shattered last night, I had a little play and OMG what did I ever do without it. Can already see that being my best buy for this year LOL

Craft Shopping ---- again :o)

Well I had to support a craft shop that has just opened up 10 minutes from my house. If you're ever in the Baldock (Hertfordshire) area, then I thoroughly recommend that you pop into Scrap Revolution. Lots of yummy stash and Lorraine is lovely.

Hectic weekend

I really don't know where the time went. I had Friday afternoon off work and then drove down to Eastbourne. It was my aunt's 60th birthday so we all went out for a meal. There were 17 of us but it was a really good laugh. If you're ever in the Eastbourne area, I can thoroughly recommend The Yew Tree Inn at Arlington - thumbs up from my family anyway.

We stayed over at my cousin's house Friday night. Went to see her new baby granddaughter on Saturday morning - had loads of cuddles ;o) Popped in to see another aunt and uncle for a quick cup of tea and then drove home. Did manage to get to the The Glitter Pot on the way home - well I was driving!

Yesterday didn't calm down - card making session in the morning, watching the footie in the afternoon :o( and then went to see Strictly Come Dancing Tour at Wembley Arena. It was brilliant. Food and drinks in the arena were well over priced - £5 for a really small tub of ice-cream. Will show piccies (if they're okay) when I get them off my camera.

Feel exhausted this morning ----- back to work :o(

Help, I'm addicted .....

... to Penny Black stamps.

I bought a couple of the new Spring 2008 ones so thought I'd update my photos of them. Big mistake as it really does highlight how many I've got, especially the hedgies. Oh well, now I've declared my addiction, I'd better show the photos LOL

Which colour???

My family have started to ask me what I really really want for Christmas.

1 or 2 crafty things I'd love are the new Doodlebug Craft Knives and Cutting Mats. My dilemma is which colour do I go for as they're all gorgeous. It could take me till Christmas to decide unless I get some help LOL

At the moment, I'm leaning towards Bubblegum knife and Black Beetle mat but that could very well change by tomorrow. BTW aren't the colour names just brilliant.

Stash piccies

Here's some piccies of the yummy goodies that I bought at Ally Pally
