Hi guys! I have a haul for you on the blog today - it's from Hobbycraft and it's all wooden stamps! Hobbycraft have decided to on offer their wooden stamps for half price and I decided to take a little advantage on this offer. Their large and bookmark wooden stamps were originally £8, their medium wooden stamps were priced at £6 and £4 and the smaller wooden stamps were price at £3. With 50% off on wooden stamps the prices are now: £4, £3, £2 and £1.50. Hobbycraft in general do have good sales on their website - the only problem can be is that while one product maybe in stock, when you order and they recheck - it may already be out of stock - the system just does not update quick enough. Delivery is £3.50, next day is £5.50 and Click and Collect from your local store is £1.00. I always opt for Click and Collect personally, but delivery is a reasonable price. Here is my little haul:  Flower Background Stamp: £4 Medium Stamps: £2 each Small Stanps: £1.50...

Hi everyone and thank you for stopping by the blog today. In this post and a few other posts further down the line, I will be creating a mini series on cards that are made and created with postcards. It's amazing how just the simplest of paper items can be turned into something completely different. I have been collecting postcards from various different stationery stores and have found in the past that I haven't used them for much apart from maybe a little bit of scrapbooking - but I thought I would try something different this time round. I've purchased most of the postcards from a UK stationary store called Paperchase, and they are 70p each. Today, we've got some Thank You (Post) Cards -------------------- I've added a few touches with some sequins and some adhesive gems to this card. I love the silver foil of this card and the blue splatter effect on the design too. To this card I rounded off the edges, trimmed down the card to...

Hi there guys and welcome back to the blog today! In this post I will be talking about the My Favorite Things March release, as well as my picks and the items I bought from the release. The March release from My Favorite Things came out on March 7th 2017 at 9pm EST in the US and then on March 8th in the UK and everywhere else. The release was as always a great one - it had pigs, lions and tigers, baby themed stamps and dies, two new paper pads, new home and houses dies and sentiments, as well as a love theme too with tags, keys and locks. They also had ninjas and sushi eating panda bears too. Okay, that probably sounds like a weird mix of random elements, but MFT always pull it out of the bag! Here are pictures of the release below - from the MFT Blog website . My favourites from this release are the Ninja-mazing Stamp set and Die, great versatility and will go great with the other Japanese themed dies and stamps. I love the Lions and Tigers set as well - very uni...

The weekly hauls now turn into monthly hauls as a new haul every week sounded waaaaay too much than it should! And that would prove (terribly) that I shop way too much - which wouldn't be a bad thing - it's a addiction that cannot be tamed! Here is the belated February Craft Haul... *Most websites are UK based, but if an international version is only available, this will be stated instead Seven Hills Crafts | www.sevenhillscrafts.co.uk MFT Farm Friends Stamp Set & Die-namics MFT Fancy Flowers Stamp Set Mama Elephant Pop Up Trio Die Lawn Fawn Year Fab Flowers Stamp Set and Die Lawn Fawn Year Seven Stamp Set and Die Lawn Fawn How You Bean Stamp Set and Die (Non-Shaker Die) Hero Arts Love Note Pair Die Lawn Fawn Gazebo Ink Cubes Dies to Die For | www.diestodiefor.com Mama Elephant Tiny Ninjas Stamp Set and Die MFT Beary Special Birthday Die-namics Hobbycraft | www.hobbycraft....
