After striking out last month, I finally found a few things today (Labor Day). I'm primarily a card maker, with a dash of 'papercrafter'.  I had under an hour to go to both Micheal's and TM - including drive time. My Micheal's was a disheveled mess. It look like they are 'flipping' the store over, plus stirring it up. Ugh. It was hard to find anything. Then the check out had 15+ people in line with only 2 checkouts open. I spent more time in line than I did actually shopping. Used my 50% off coupon on a Celebrate it! Tiny Treasures vintage look little red truck w/a Christmas tree in the back of it. I hunted all over for it last season and grabbed it up. Now on to Tuesday Morning:I ended up with a whopping 5 minutes to spend in the store.  I only had time for a superficial quick glance, but did manage to find: Cricut Cartirdges: Anna's Lovely Layered Card 2 and Anna's Elegant Embellishments 2 My Boutique 4" x 6" Self Sealing Clear bags (34 per package) I'm hoping these will work for shaker cards. At 99 cents per bag, I thought it was worth trying them out. Aithoh Co. Japanese 3" x 3" Origami paper - Travel/Writing $3.99 They are just so cute. I like to experiment with Mixed Media and thought they might work for a travel background that includes a few of the travel rubber stamps I have. Can't wait to play with them. That's all I managed to get with less than 5 min to look.There looked to be a nice selection of Halloween items in stock, but I didn't have time to look closely. My store was very neat and orderly and pretty well stocked. I guess most people went away for the holiday. Lucky me! LOL |

I love little red trucks. Trying to stay out of stores though. |

My local TM still has the Minc available. I still resisted, but I did buy a couple of rolls of foil.

Lots and lots of paper on an end cap today. The Simple Stories and Echo Park just keep rolling in. Several EP Christmas lines, SS Let's Party and more. Nothing new from Tim Holtz or Sizzix that I saw, still lots of Minc foil left.

I haven't bothered to go this week because holidays usually put them really behind. |

I went in yesterday and didn't notice much but they had a Christmas 12 by 12 pad of plaid and it was nice and traditional colors and was only 4.99 - I am still totally on the plaid kick so had to get it especially since it doesn't have to be used for Christmas . I looked at one at Hobby Lobby but didn't like it and am glad I didn't since this was less than half the price.

I went last weekend and found a bunch of stuff! Mini minc (they didn't have foil though), Tim Holtz 12x12 paper stash pad & burlap panels, AC remarks Halloween puffy stickers, Trinket Thickers (I try to resist thinkers since I have a lot, but only had one of these and already used a bunch), Crate Paper cool kid rubber embellishments and Maggie Holmes Open Book 12x12 pad.
There didn't seem to be a huge collection of any one thing at mine.

I went today. It is shipment day. I found some great packs of "boy paper" called High Five from We R (25 of the same sheet)
They also had a pack of paper from the Cool Kids line that I loved. It should work as great background paper for other bright papers.

A new item I saw today was Bazill variety packs, 8 x 8 and 5 x 7 in different color tones - pastel, primary, etc. Nice for die cutting, photo frames and card fronts.

The only thing I found that I wanted from the week were 2 Little B Washi tapes (the same one, I just bought doubles). They had the teal gold foil Love one a few months ago and a few weeks ago got the heart only teal gold foil one that matches. This week, they got the red gold foil Love tape. The Christmas lines from EP were ones I either had or didn't feel compelled to buy. No new ephemera, not much else that was exciting.

Picked up a little magnifier on a stand. The eyes are getting old. I also got some more enamel dots and a bazzill mat stack in Halloween colors. They had a ton of new pads this week but nothing I wanted. No Christmas papers yet. Lots of planner items.

Stopped in Tuesday afternoon and just as I was thinking to myself that they didn't get anything new in the clerk says to me "Do you want to sort through the cart? I have it all ready for you!" I'm not looking forward to when the manager returns. The craft aisle is her baby and she rarely lets me sort through the carts, but then she usually has that aisle stocked by Wed morning.
Now to what I found. I didn't have time to snap pics so this will be rather vague:
about 5 packs each of Echo Park and Bella Paper?? Christmas Kits, about 6 different styles (most were on tan background not white)
handmade papers in 6x6 and 8x8
printed tissue paper packs 12x12
7 Gypsies small album covers and inserts/file pockets and more I can't recall
7 Gypsies single style paper packs assorted
vintage ephemera packs, journal pages and chipboard tags/labels
Misc Me journaling boxed set Baby Bump and cookbook set
Tim Holtz embossing folders Halloween, Christmas, etc
Spellbinders dies about 8 designs mostly lacy type strips, the gate, cottage, and a few abstract designs
washi multi packs in pink, neutrals, and orange
Glitzy stack 6x8 pad 6 colors 2 sheets each
Actually it was a rather small shipment SB wise this week, just many of the same items.
Happy shopping!

I bought the Spellbinder dies that have the words: Celebrate Forever Fun I was pleasantly surprised that they were nice sized. For $4.99 even! And the font is very pretty. I was afraid they were going to be puny, considering the pkg size. I also bought some 6x6 and 12x12 Crafter's Workshopt stencils for $3 and $4, And a wire hanging thingy to hang in my craft room for $16.99 |

This the one number below the code 1884552. Above the code 5102. 1509. 0917 Says stack 12 by 12 plaid. It's really nice snd has some gold foil on some of the sheets. |

More Spellbinders dies arrived, Darice embossing folders many are christmas themed, and TH embossing folders too. The deluge of paper pads and kits continue to flood my store but many are repeats. More binders for the Misc Me line.
Didn't get to sort the cart this week but that's ok, I just got back from WDW and I'm dragging. I like how i put going to TM ahead of going to the grocery store today!
