In the grand scheme of things today has not really been a productive day...
I started the day reading a new book cover to cover, did some housework, then my mum and dad popped round with new additions for the garden... which is looking gorgeous in all this lovely summery weather we're having - but the washing was in the way so no new photos to share...
And it has just been too nice outside to worry about getting other things done.
But I have some photos of some of my recent stash purchases.
Wednesday night I checked out the new Paperchase shop at the Metrocentre and picked up yet another (new!) binder for my collection. I hadn't seen these fabric covered ones before so think I will use it for my baking album or something else no doubt.
Also in TK Maxx I managed to get the stub Corner Chomper - not exactly a bargain price but more or less the same price I've seen it online - just nice to have it in person. They didn't have the little rounder (yellow one) so I was lucky to just walk out with one of these!
Thursday night I had a few PTI stamp sets to assemble... now I just need to get playing!
My little CD case that I use for storing my Spellbinder and PTI dies in is now 100% full and bulging at the seams, now that my latest PTI additions and those fancy tags are in there. Can't wait to try some of them out on my next card project.
Is it sad that this photo makes me happy? I don't think it's just the stash, I love all those colours together... So much so I've hung these newest embellishment packets over my desk to tempt me...
Mmmm some lovely Crate bits and pieces to go with the papers I bought - yum, yum, yum...
Also these Fancy Pants papers have some nice designs that will mix and match in with other stash as well as together.
Tomorrow is looking like it'll be a tiring day - ma and I are off to the Metrocentre/Newcastle centre for our shopping excursion and if the weather is like this again it's going to be boiling... fingers crossed we'll come back with some nice goodies and not just window shopping! Mind you, I could go for an ice cream from Marble Slab Creamery if they're still there... mmmmm.
Your stash is totally making me drool all over my keyboards ;)
I even spotted the PTI Tiny Tags in there!! Eeee - they are too cute but I can't afford to buy anything from PTI for a few months yet. I am going to have to hang on and be inspired by seeing what you make instead ;)
Hugs, Ruth S
