That Avery Elle Handwritten Notes stamp set has had a fair bit of use this week, eh? :)
And on the topic of Mother's Day - ma and I had a very nice but rather shattering outing to the Metrocentre and IKEA, polished off with a good old burger at Gourmet Burger Kitchen:
So good, but boy oh boy was the walk back to the car a difficult one!
Yet again we had spent something like 3 hours in IKEA, and left with the usual... serviettes, tea lights, washing up scrubby and zip lock bag restocks!
However, I did come away with a new storage container for my stamps, and the two smaller boxes in the set are great for storing 6x6 pads.
These Notudden baskets were in the bathroom section and are pretty durable compared to the cardboard CD storage boxes. They are those ones made from a durable fabric that zip diagonally at the bottom to assemble. I have some cream ones in my Hemnes chest of drawers in the bedroom, but I loved this print and they are really handy looking. The baskets will definitely do for now for my stamp collection, if it needs rehoming again I shall just move these baskets to my Hemnes drawers to store chargers, etc.
Well, I had best log off, as I think an early night is definitely in order after today's shenanigans!
Really pretty card Nat - bet you would struggle to find a "Mam" card in the local supermarket! Those Ikea boxes look rather nice too, think I feel a trip coming on, it's been a while!
