I just placed 3 orders today.
i bought a ton of stencils I think 15 of them, One I have been trying to find it has been discontinued and I found it in stock somewhere. They had one and it was normal priced. I found it on amazon for $30 including shipping. I'm not paying that for a 6x6 stencil.
couple of prima stamps
the last 2 dylusions paint i needed to finish my collection.
A blue archival ink
and clear matte texture paste
I am waiting for the new lawn fawn release to come available. I want the snow globe stamp and die set.
Last year I had a thing for snowmen in my Christmas supply shopping this year its snow globes.
Michaels in Canada is have 40% off Tim Holtz stuff and plus Saturday morning 25% off sale prices. I am hoping there is still room in the budget. I really do not need anything more but you never know....

I pre-ordered some Memory Box Christmas dies and just got the notification that they are shipping. My PL subscription from Scraptastic is also on its way.
I have adhesive in my Amazon cart but that hardly counts as a fun, scrappy purchase.

Just a few items at Tuesday morning. 2 6x6 paper pads, black sticker letters from American Crafts and then a pack of 5 black AC markers. I am going to a crop this weekend though where there are a few really good vendors. I might be buying there! LOL

Ordered some of the CP Journey collection and a few pieces of the Shimelle True Stories collection. And a Hero Arts ombre ink pad. Trying to use up lots of stuff to justify all the upcoming collections I want to dabble with.

Too much!
A kit from Freckled Fawn and Pinkfresh Studio as a way of trying out their embellishment subs
August kit from Scrapbook Circle
And I recently signed up to Ali's story kit so my Roots kit just arrived.
Oops forgot about my Pinkfresh Happy Things pre-order from Mei Li Paperie.

I just placed a $200+ order. In my defense, I haven't bought any scrapbook supplies in over a year. So I went back and bought a lot of collections I missed- both Shimelle's, the "I Am" collection (I can't remember who makes it- Crate paper?), Simple Stories boy collection, Basic Grey's Adrift, the newest KI collection, a couple of other paper pads, too. I bought a beautiful pink and orange collection but I can't remember who made it- but I saw a lot of it in last month's Scraptastic kit.
I also bought a few packages of die cuts, a few packages of Thickers, too many packages of enamel dots (I love them), a stencil, and an octopus punch.
Once again, I haven't bought anything in over a year so I apologize for the excess. There was just so. much. prettiness!

July Distress Paint and Marker Pink Paislee Atlas Pad and puffy stickers Various items from Tuesday Morning (picture on TM thread) I was all set to place an order with ACOT this weekend with their "Free Shipping" on $40 purchase promotion. I got my cart filled and the shipping was not free. Turns out it was really discounted shipping up to $8. That kind of stuff really ticks me off. Why make me read the fine print to see if your promotion is as advertised in the banner print? Just say $8 off shipping if that's what it is. Anyway, the full price shipping was over $16 on $40 worth on full retail price stuff. No thank you. I almost started a separate thread about it, but I don't want to get labelled a trouble maker.  I did email them about my displeasure but didn't hear back, which sort of surprised me. Customer service just isn't what it used to be. |

White cardstock! I'm a beginner card maker and needed inexpensive, yet relatively sturdy cardstock. I ordered some Neenah from Costco Online and got it today. I'm excited to try it out with my new embossing folder I recently purchased to make Christmas cards.

Oh I love memory box . I am really trying to slow down in my die buying. I have be going thru storage and organization nightmares with my dies. My LSS has hundreds of them and I have three on back order. They are so cute. I just started a new organization of my thin dies. I love it and feel the need to buy more. It is on a magnetic sheet (vent cover) that goes in an Avery Elle 5 x 7 clear envelope. They sit in a double sided fridge bin with my stamps and embossing folders. |

Let's see...my AE story kit, the WITL kit, some little things at a Christmas in July sale from SC. I snagged 5 brand new SU ink pads at a garage sale for 50¢ each. Not too shabby, IMO.
But, now, I'm on a freeze. I'm saving up for a DD kit and also a new phone. So, no more scrappy spending outside picture printing.

I just dropped $63 on assorted stuff when a (sort of) local store was having a big clearance sale. I bought a bunch of summer and road trip themed stuff to use for pics from our recent trip to my nephew's wedding, swimming paper for pics of DD's swimming lessons that I didn't have and a few pieces of Doodlebug 4th of July papers and some stickers to match. I can't even remember everything I bought because I was on a timeline and in kind of a hurry to get back home!

I picked up Ken Oliver's The Best Ever Craft Mat from an online store that offered 60% off one item for one day. With shipping and tax, I got it under $13.00 (MSRP is $15.99). Really excited to get it - due to arrive tomorrow Other than that, I'm being good until a couple of weeks from now (aka Scrapbook Expo in Chicago) - LOL!! |

Today I bought a Marvy Uchida 1" circle paper punch, NIP, at the Salvation Army for $1.99 Did I really need it? I don't know, but I would have regretted not picking it up for a couple bucks, ya know? It is a size of circle I didn't already have, a brand I like & trust their quality, and heck, what scrapper doesn't need a variety of circles?!  |

Even if you had also done that last week, no need to defend  That is going to be one fun box to open! I often do my yearly splurge at GASC in Dallas. I didn't go this year and so planned on going to CKC in Houston. My back is laughing at that idea. So I decided to spend the gas, hotel, class and shopping budget online instead. So far I have placed one big order including Bazzill, alphas, misc. embellishments, and assorted papers. Plus kits and fun things in these lines which are new to me: - CB ~ All Hallows' Eve (Haloween Cards)
- CB ~ Christmas Day (Christmas Cards)
- CB ~ Fall Blessings
- CB ~ It's a Celebration
- SS ~ So Rad (Scrap DH in high school)
- SS ~ Summer Vibes
Next will be some basics (glue, cardstock and albums), a couple of tools I have been eyeing, and organization items. I checked out the CHA releases and only require a few things form there thank goodness!

Most of my online purchases are from Steals.com and other daily deal sites, or A Cherry on Top. I also pick up things here and there from Tuesday Morning, maybe a little from Michaels with a coupon. I even have some local scrapbook stores, because I live in Southern California. I took a long break from scrapbooking, so I don't mind older lines because it's all new to me. I have built a supply of things that I like with lots of variety. I love putting together kits from my stash, and adding new pretty things that I know will fit in. There have been lots of other online favorites mentioned in previous threads. When you get a chance, take a look back for some ideas. |
