Saturday we made a quick trip to Alexandria to visit the SHRINE for all crafters. Hobby Lobby is my favorite store. I literally could stay in there for hours. They were having a great sale and I added some more crafting items to my growing stash. I thought I would share my haul.
I purchased this gorgeous paper pack called Tyin the Knot by Paper
Studio. Although some of the papers are specific to a wedding, most can be used for any theme.
This is a sample of one of the papers - so lovely. I have wondered away a bit from paper crafting but I am excited to share with my readers some of the new ideas I will be working on.
I purchased several new stamps. I will begin making altered postcards so I needed the postcard stamp. I am excited about getting started on these.
I love the stamp color called ocean. I also got some great flowers at a great sales price. These are great for greeting cards and scrappin.
I was also able to add some bling to my stash. I have a concept that I will be experimenting with that involves altered note cards. I will share as soon as I get a set made.
I hope my readers remember my messy craft room. This is the newly organized room - I hate the file cabinet but the beast stores so much and it was free. I know not everyone is into paper crafting but I want to share what I am doing. Please let me know how you enjoy your free time.
I was just thinking about making some stationary/gift cards! Maybe we can do some together sometime!
ReplyDeleteSounds awesome - I've got some ideas but I have not put it into practice yet. I'll share when something comes to fruition.

ReplyDeleteHobby lobby takes so much of my $$! When I'm doing observations in Alexandria and I have a cancellation or one wraps up early, I'm in hobby lobby killing time đŸ˜€
ReplyDeleteAlso, I have a thought. You said you hate your filing cabinet. Maybe you could make that a craft project and paint it and decorate it. There's so many fun paint colors and even colors chalkboard paint.
Jessica thanks for commenting on the blog - Yes Jessica I will take your idea and make the beast a project. I will share on a post when I have it completed. Off to get ideas for the file cabinet.............
