January Treats!

Hello Everyone  - Long time no see, I hope you all had a peaceful holiday and so far new year as been kind to you. I also hope you are well and if not I wish you a speedy recovery. 

I have been a wee bit naughty and bought a few new bits and yes I even got two boxes of Hunkydory Christmas Boxes. I'm a sucker for all things Christmas, pictures below are of what was in the two boxes.

Towards the end of 2022 I knew I wanted to do a order of some new essentials, I kept looking and adding to my online basket. At times I wasn't sure if I was going to do a order and, then on the 2nd of January 2023 I decided too. I paid for next day delivery, something I rarely do.. 

Down below is a list of what I ordered and below that again is the pictures.

1: For the love of stamp - Paw some pups

2: For the love of stamp - Paw fect pups 

3: Free gift - Puppy Love

4: StazOn Ink Pad - Jet Black 

5: StazOn Ink Pad - Gothic Purple

6: For the love of stamp - cosmic cat

7: A3 cutting mat ( been wanting to upgrade my 12x12 mat for a while now)

8: A3 Silicone Mega craft mat

9: Premier Craft Tools - stamping press and extras (been wanting one for a while now)

10: Woodware stamp - Freddie Fox

11: Woodware stamp  - potted poinsettias 

12: Watering can die.

Has you can see above are the essentials, and below is what I would say is not so essential. But I am planning to do mix media, I also fell in love with a few stamps. Plus I wasn't going to say no to the free gift was I. In the past I've missed out and have regretted so.

I also did a small order with The Works, a few Christmas/ New Year gifts and some must haves. The Christmas/New Year gifts I can not share as well I've not sent them yet.  What I can share is the two 8x8 scrapbooks and air dry clay. 

The air dry clay I have never used, but have wanted to.

Over the course of the year and possibly beyond I will use January Treats as a tag. 

Thank you for taking the time to read my latest post. 

Until next time

Blessings

A small haul

Today I needed to pop into my local Poundland shop.

To pick up some card blanks and envelopes, as they work out cheaper than the shop I normally go to.

While I was in there I also got a few other bits..

First three items are washi tape, and if I don't have enough already!

PVA glue this is one thing I needed, and the mini pegs will come in handy.. 

Last but not least the main reason I went in, was to these - I got two packs...

My reason is I have enough embellishments but I have ran out of card blanks. Plus I've started today making Christmas cards...

Please let me know what you think? 

Birthday Haul

It's been a while since I have wrote a single blog post.


So yesterday was my Birthday, I decided to go to Bournemouth and Poole not been in a while. In the I ended up at hobbycraft in Ferndown, Bournemouth with my mum and brother.


At first my brother was not happy until he saw the Airfix and leho section!  Mum was not to happy as she is in a wheelchair and had trouble getting around the store properly. Due to narrow isles - I guess Christmas is more important than customers..

Apart from that we spent about two hours or more in there, I guess it was because I was like a child in a sweet shop, I spent just over £100.00.

Once we all got home, we decided to have a chinese takeaway.  My 1st sad I know!

Anyway this is what I got my self!

Last Day Of June Haul

Today I went into the Range, to get some bits for a couple of cards.  Also to get the loom to try out those band bracelet thingie that are a big thing at the moment here in the United Kingdom.  I believe it is big all over the world.

The Range is where you can get household, outdoors, pets, diy stuff from. Plus they have a craft section...

Only trouble I have with the place is I don't always find what I'm looking for.. Anyhow I got some bits that I will use, I know!

This is what I  got...

Sad thing was I couldn't get my hands on the band bracelet loom thingie!
