What are the last few things you bought?

some inks and a couple of clearance collection kits from HL

I've been buying more than scrapbooking lately. I've recently bought the new MME lines, Gingham Foundry and Wild Asparagus, from my LSS. And of course, I picked up Tim Holtz Kitsch Flamingo ink that I missed out on earlier to go with it.

I also recently purchased the mixed media backgrounds and some die cuts from Vicki Boutin's Color Study line. I ordered from Scrapook.com because I could not find them anywhere locally. And while I was at it, I also bought this corner punch because I have wanted one forever. Just don't ask me if I have actually used it yet

I don't need a thing and I found 5th and Monoco and another Vicki Boutin paper pad at HL 75% off.

I bought a few things from Stampin Up: a banner punch, some triangle dies, a flower stamp & die set.

The only things I have been getting (besides my sub) is sketch classes. I am doing the 6x6 class right now, and then picked up SC summer sketch class as well as Elles Studio sketch class.

Stampin' Up "What's Cookin'" stamps and dies and Evergreen border punch.

Photo Play Crafting with my Gnomies and Simple Stories Vintage Farmhouse Garden collection.

On Friday I am driving to the LSS to pick up my box for Maker Mania 3: have no idea what is in that box! And I registered for two SCT fall events that will deliver me even more surprises...

1. Acrylic spacers used in making mini albums/books and a couple of really cute baby collections from Country Craft Creations. Typically not my style but they spoke to me!

2. Spellbinders Glimmer hot foil system. Turns out the only machine it doesn't work with is the Cuttlebug, which is what I have. So I also got a new manual die cut machine (Spellbinders Platinum) along with several colors of foil and handful of plates to start with. I'm a bit obsessed!

3. Lowercase alphabet dies: Heather by Pinkfresh Studio.

4. Scrapbook.com has a new container meant for 6x12 stickers/Thickers. I was able to reclaim half a Kallax cube by consolidating my stash into one. Very happy about that!

5. Classes/Virtual events: Shimelle's half & half class, Scrapbook Generation 6x6 class and some SCT online fall events.

I really want the new spring collection by Pinkfresh Studio. I'm happy to see it's included in the sneak peeks of the June Hip Kit Club kit. I'm trying really hard to curtail my fun money spending right now as we're going on vacation next month. I did get some cute yellow "walking shoes" in preparation.

I bought label stickers from Studio Calico this morning. It’s the thing I’ve used most from when I subscribed. I’m sure there’s a cheaper place to buy them but it was quick & easy and shockingly they already sent me a shipping email

I bought a kit from my LSS

I’ve been making cards with my new Hero arts stack of books die

I have stuff in baskets at Gina Marie designs & Elle’s studio but I haven’t bought it yet.

My last order from A Cherry On Top:
SS Safe Travels
A few Garden Party items paper, paper, another paper and some chipboard stickers that are out of stock, Pinkfresh Happy Blooms paper, cardstock stickers, and ephemera.

I ordered this Southern Charm paper pad and a 6x8 Garden Party paper pad from Joann.com. 

I went to Joann last week and got 3 Damask Love papers with Hawaiian kinds of prints, some unicorn sparkle cloud paper (it’s like a cotton candy/dreamworld sky), a bee paper, and a yellow hexie/honeycomb. I already used up all of the DL papers and most of the coordinating cardstock making cards.

I have some Concord &9th alpha dies coming too.

Today I watched some videos so I want to buy all the things, but I’m also exhausted by trying to finish all my WIPs which makes me want to not buy anything ever again.

Pray tell, AussieMeg, what does a digital scrapper do with cut files? 

Last couple kits I got were the Paper Person kit and the Everyday Explorers mini book kit.
Plus I bought some additional stamps from each.
I peruse scrapbook.com every week or so for new stuff that I have to have, but I haven’t yet looked this week.
I also get ScrapRoom.com kits and Cocoa Daisy kits every month. Those have a good monthly variety. I got May a few weeks back...we’ll see what June brings.
I did order a few Hero Arts dies from their recent release—looking glass dies and stencil templates.
I like to shop...

A photo printer that will do 13"x19" size. Canon something or other. I'll have to look it up.   Canon Pixma iX6820

And the Gemini Jr. I love my Cuttlebug, but I just can't crank that handle anymore.


Had a kidney stone recently so sadly both are still in their boxes.


ETA:  The printer was from Amazon and the Gemini was actually from an online Office supply store.  I was able to get free shipping.  

I bought three of the past Hip Kit pocket kits just to see how I liked them. I liked them so much I decided to subscribe for a while and see if I'm still impressed with them. I have picked up a regular Hip Kit here and there and I have enjoyed all of them.
