Hi folks! better not hang around for long - I'm getting my bag ready for the crop on Saturday - why so early? We are going down tomorrow so we can see more of the area - last year we managed to get to Stonehenge and Avebury and we have few places in mind for this trip!
Just in case you haven't worked it out, it is Whats On Your Workdesk Wednesday with a link to desks of the World courtesy of Julia!
Mine has been cleared - some things have already gone into the bag!
What you see here is what I bought at Happy Stampers on Saturday...
…also bought a Visible Images set - packed already!!The Crafty Individuals pile includes one of the new background stamps and the others from the bargain area for £1.50 each!The top one will be a perfect stamp to use in my journal for our upcoming trip to France
Best of all though - I got..
I haven't had time to play yet though!
A Quick Film Review
Yesterday we went to see 'Spooks'. We used to love the TV programme - this film was like it, only on a bigger screen, so if you liked 'Spooks' you will probably like this deals and deception film!
Thanks for looking, I'll be round later! Now, if I can only decide what else to pack!!
Chris
fabulous new goddies Chris!

ReplyDeleteForgot to say, we can highly recommend Winchester Cathedral for a look around. Jan & her hubby took us there last year, it's truly an amazing sight. Shaz xxx

ReplyDeleteLucky you with your bargain stamps. I love finding those, makes a shopping trip more worthwhile if you can say you saved money lol
ReplyDeleteYes yes I know we always spend more but still. :) #31
I have heard those brushos are just awesome to play with..but have not make the leap to get some. Have much fun at the crop! I wish I could attend and meet the deskers...but alas I live in the US. Thanks for sharing :) Shel @ PaperOcotilloStudio

ReplyDeleteLooks good, sounds like you are always on your way somewhere! Hugs, Valerie
ReplyDeleteLove your new goodies! Have fun at the crop! Sandy Leigh #52
ReplyDeleteOh my! She's jumped into the Brusho pool. You'll have to keep us posted on what you think. I've seen awesome things made with them. That looks like you scored some fun stash! Judy #59
ReplyDeleteHiya Chris ... looking forward to seeing you again on Saturday! Your box of Brusho's made me smile ... a very similar box arrived on my doorstep only yesterday! All MaggieC's (Silvercrafter) fault ... had not heard of them until she mentioned them and I finally gave in and bought three little pots on Friday - got them home and immediately had a very quick play and ... well, now I have 15 little pots! Serious new stash envy ... love all your new goodies! Love Debbie xXx
ReplyDeleteSee you Saturday - safe journey down - let us know where you went visiting! Love the goodies - enjoy the brushos when you play with them - hope they told you, a good tip is to just pierce a small hole in the lid and use it like a salt pot to sprinkle the powder, don't undo the whole lid, you need so little of it.

Enjoy your crop, Chris. If you are going south you will enjoy some lovely countryside. Thanks for your comment. Yes, I am enjoying the greenery around at the moment. It's a lovely fresh time of year and rain expected tomorrow, so I am mega happy.
ReplyDeleteIf you are off to France you may be in for some hot weather. They are having very high temps in Europe and Africa, everywhere south of here.
Love your stamps!

Your desk looks fabulous today, Chris! Love your goodies and I also like the Eclectica stamps.

Hi Chris, I do wish I could be with you all on Saturday but sure you'll all have a good time. Thanks for the visit to mine. The photographs of the Bluetits were good luck and patience. He appears to have his head poking out of the box but was actually flying out, they move so fast.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the visit and happy crafty woyww, Angela x 34
Fabulous stash on your desk Chris. Hope you have a fabulous time at the crop

Have fun at the Crop and those stamps are all wonderful Crafty Individual ones are so kewl looking they are just so lovely for BG's :) hugs Nikki 2
ReplyDeleteI asked at my local stamp and scrapbook store and the owner has never heard of Brushos. Seems they haven't really made it across the pond, or if they have, they have not made it to the middle of the country, Most of my mixed media friends have never heard of them.
ReplyDeleteHave fun at the crop. I'll be there in spirit, and of course, with an ATC for you. Thanks for the earlier visit. Happy late evening WOYWW from #9.
How lovely that you're going to have a bit more time down here, there's lots to see!! Looking forward to seeing you on Saturday, it's going to be a fun day :-)
ReplyDeleteHugs, LLJ 18 xxx
What a lovely lot of stash! And a great idea to turn the trip into a few days away. Looking forward to seeing everyone on Saturday and like you, I have to pack something to do!! Happy WOYWW Cindy x

ReplyDeleteOh I'll def. stop by to see what you are doing at the crop :) I KNOW I need to make more, cause mine is multi-part and stupidly labor-intensive. One year I will make a simple one, but not this year....
ReplyDelete:)
Happy pre-crop WOYWW!

ReplyDeleteRemember to wear the gloves with the Brusho. Great to see you too on Saturday. I didn't see you buy that little lot. You sneaked that in.

What a great score! I am so jealous that you can get Brushos!! I have not been able to find a single place that sells it! Luck you, can't wait to see what you make! hugs :)
ReplyDeleteLovely haul from Happy Stampers - can't wait to see what you do with the Brushos! Hope you've been enjoying Avebury and Stonehenge, and have a wonderful time at the crop tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteAlison xx
Oh, that looks like a fun pile of supplies, and what a bargain too!! Enjoy yourself at the crop.

No idea what happened there - published comment and it disappeared without trace. Great stamps, lovely bargains. Brushos are really fun - must get around to digging mine out at some point! Great photos of the crop are beginning to appear - sounds like a good day was had by all.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the visit and the kind comments. John is now much better and even managed to get to church yesterday for the first time since before Christmas!
Take care. God bless.
