My OG Sizzix circle die (it made 4 different sized circles with one pass) stopped cutting, and it's annoying to have to cut circles with my Silhouette all the time. So I ordered a 1.5 inch and a 1.75 inch circle punch (I already have a 1 and 2-inch punch) so now all the circley goodness will be mine. Exciting stuff! To get free shipping a few other things might have ended up in my cart, but they're storage items and even less exciting than circle punches  |

Nothing recent, but I’ve got some pop up die sets in my cart at Karen Burniston’s site. I’m still trying to decide on a few things before I check out.

Yes! I bought mixes from this Etsy shop: Magical Mixery StoreThe prices seemed very good to me and the shipping was also not bad. I wanted a mix with pink and shapes that looked like peppermint candies and she had exactly what I wanted. I'll definitely buy again. |

I bought The Greetery's Big Beautiful Bow Die this weekend. Tracking says it should be here by tomorrow! I saw some of the sample cards on YouTube and couldn't resist! I do already have a bow die but the bow does not lay flat so I was looking for one that would be easier to mail. thegreetery.com/products/big-beautiful-bow-die |

I got several collection kits and embellishment packs during the recent EP warehouse sale. I wasn't going to shop but I caved when there was an extra percentage off. The kits were 7.50 and the embellishment packs were 2-3. I got a lot of stuff for the 50 I spent to get free shipping.

When ACOT had free shipping with $35 purchase, the other day, I placed an order. Assorted items.

I knew I shouldn’t have looked, it always costs me money. |

I bought a Stampwheel and I bought a bunch of Sketchmarker alcohol markers from Ellen Hutson’s clearance.
I haven’t used either yet but I think they’ll both be fun to use.

No, I've been so busy working on getting 10 months of layouts ready to scrap that I haven't really been buying. I did get Adobe Lightroom put on my computer and a nice external hard rive for the pictures.

The only thing I’ve gotten (very) recently for myself is the snap envelopes I like that are no longer being produced. The price is ridiculous, so I’m buying them one package a paycheck u til they run out. But I did finish getting all of the paper crafting supplies I bought for my nephew in and packaging them up for him, almost more fun than buying pretty paper for myself! |

Betsy Veldman is a freaking genius! And she picked an awesome design team. I love everything about The Greetery! |

I bought a Glimmer hot foil machine along with some plates. I was supposed to go to the Expo a couple weeks ago but I got Covid. I decided I’d buy a few things with the money I would have spent on a hotel room and classes.
Looking forward to learning to use my new machine this weekend. .

I bought one of the new Fuse Foiling System machines Gina K. launched last month. It's similar to the Minc Mini, but at a lower price point. It foils so much better than the Swingline office laminator I've been using for several years! I love how I don't have to wait 20-30 minutes for it to heat up, too.

I bought Paige Evans Sugarplum Wishes 12 x 12pad, 6 x 8 pad, washi, diecuts and mini alphas because they were crazy cheap at Spotlight here in Australia. $4.20 for the 12x12 and $2.10 for each of the other items. I wasn't going to buy any Christmas supplies this year, but at those prices it would have been a crime not to  . |

I just bought a good number of photos from Persnickety Prints -- my first time buying from them!
I'll also be using some double-sided adhesive soon for the scrapbook the pictures are for. Now just to hope I can get the setting on my Cricut just so so it cuts through the paper I'm using (Doodlebug Design) and the adhesive. 🤞

I picked up most of VB's Discover & Create. I bought way too much of it and feel slightly guilty, but I plan to dive into it right away. I have also placed an order with scrapbook.com for some 6x8 page protectors so I am ready for December Daily...and while I was at it I purchased a stamp set that lindas pointed out to me when I was looking for a particular Christmas phrase. I did not need it, but it was not too expensive, and I think I can make good use of it. |

I pre-ordered the new Taylored Expressions large glass mat, the bow die and some sentiments. Going to put a freeze on myself for a while.

I put the Karen Burniston dies back into my wishlist and ended up buying a bunch of items (papers, stamps, and dies) that were added to the Heartfelt Creations warehouse sale. Since HC is going out of business, and I have limited time to get the products from them that I want, I figured that the KB dies can wait.

Did you notice a shortage of punches when you were shopping? I, too, recently had a need for 1.5 and 1.75 punches (who wants to fuss with individual dies for a big batch project). They either were on clearance in "standard" scrapbooking stores or were not stocked at all. I bought "no name" brands from Amazon and hope they will cut well. Are punches another product doomed to extinction?

Except for circles, the punch selection is very limited at most of the places I checked (I was thinking of also getting a star punch.) I was wondering what was up... |

I just received the new Tim Holtz paper trimmer while and I can’t wait to try it. I really needed a reliable trimmer for crops. My Fiskars Procision does the bulk of my cutting at home. I have another Fiskars recommended by Jennifer McGuire that is lovely except you cannot hold your paper in the middle. It causes the platform to sag and won’t cut the paper in the middle section. The first thing I did was push down on the middle of the new TH trimmer and it was very solid. Yay!

I just got the new Catherine Pooler metallic inks, but I haven't got a chance to try them yet. I ordered Concord and 9th's new knitting stamp and dies. I pre-ordered Kindred Stamps Christmas box. It has a stamp set, dies, a 6x6 paper pad, maybe some sequins? but won't get here until mid December.
