WOYWW 265

Good morning  fellow Bloggers!  And others too! :)   I spent a wonderful week-end at a stamp show with my BFF GF. We stamped, shopped, and shopped some more,  and watched Hallmark movies in the evenings.   I hadn't been able to do something like this for several years, and it was so fun. We learned new techniques and  also learned what we needed to do those techniques.  So, of course, I spent some money for some of those things!  Not that I don't have enough, already!  I couldn't wait to show you my desk with all my new goodies and some things we did at the Make & Takes.   Okay, just in case you don't know why I am showing you my desk, it is because I am participating in this wonderful world wide desk hop sponsored by Julia Dunnit.  All the details can be  found at  Stamping Ground.


Make & Takes, new dies, stamps, tools, inks & glitters




New stamps from ODDB, CC Designs, B&Js Art Stamps, Morning Star, Lost Coast Designs, Stamp A Mania


Card I made with new technique.
Card I made with new image & new dies.
So fun to learn new techniques,  and to use my new CC's Coffee Sue stamp & new Spellbinders A2 Curved Matting Basics B die.

Thanks for stopping by and thank you for your kind comments.  I will come by and see you after Wednesday morning Bible study.  :) 

        Ps. 34:8  "Oh, taste and see that the Lord is good!
                        Blessed is the man who takes refuge in him!"

  3. Looks like you did have fun - I'm off to a show this weekend and V V excited. I never do manage to watch the demos as much as I'd like - this show has been running for years but seems to get smaller (fewer stall) every year. In the same space as ever, I really wish they would allow it to expand to use all the space available rather than cramming the stands so close together. I always feel I am in someone's way if I stand and watch a long demo, and if I hang back, people will scoot in front of me - lucky I'm tall :)
    Lovely cards

    Happy WOYWW!

  5. Wow. And wow again. You did do some shopping! How marvellous a weekend, and everytime you use one of those techniques or products, you'll get a faint recall of the fun you had with your BFF. Perfect reason to craft.
