Shopping makes me happy!

Guess where I went today....? The Stitches and Craft Show, Yay!! {dancing around the room with glee}. It has become a tradition for Mum and I to go to the August show (althought they cancelled the Feb show this year anyway with no explanation.. anyone know why?) We have been joined on numerous occasions (like today) by my Auntie Julie as well as my cousin Megan, sis Felicity and Cooper. I had a great day, got heaps of bargains and lots of things off my shopping list and spent lots of $$$, as usual! I am sooooo tired now though cos I've been up and on the go for 17hrs non-stop. Argh!
So I thought you might like a little sneak peak at what I bought, and what hopefully you'll be seeing on lots of pages and cards when I get creative soon. Sorry there haven't been any posts this week; life has been fully hectic {lol} and I don't mean like "fully sik".
Probably my favourite find at the show (although I love it all, otherwise I wouldn't have bought it) were some little grab bags of bits and bobs I got at the Memories2Remember stall. They were $2.95 and have tiny felt shapes/chipboard shapes/arrows/journalling spots etc in them. I'm going to try to do little collections of fun stuff like Yvette does on her pages. I also got some big felt shapes from them too and the Maya Road Owl Stamp that is sooo cool! I love the October Afternoon die cut shapes you can see in the middle and the black/white thing on the right is a piece of super thin die cut tin!! Amazing!! And only $4, what a bargain. I'm going to get my tin snips out for that one :) I also got heaps of lucious ribbons so keep your eyes peeled for them on cards!
:) Sleep time now..
