You can never have enough...

A couple of weeks ago I mentioned that Angoo-Mart were offering 20% off and I just couldn't ignore it as I've bought tapes like mad this year so when I had the chance to get a little money off I couldn't let it pass by...

The package arrived this week and I did attempt to blog about it but my photos at the time were first being a pain in having to many shiny bits on and then would not transfer over from Flickr properly in that they weren't rotated the right way. Something just clicked in my mind to stick them all in a collage and show you that way and its worked so finally you have a blog post....

Isn't there just something fascinating about postmarks and foreign language text that makes no sense at all? Well I think so anyway! I also got a little free gift which was really nice of them to send.

I wanted deco tapes with the theme of hearts, flowers and fruit to match the many letter sets that I own a long with a hint of Paris. I would have loved more star tapes but I just didn't see anything that caught my eye. As for the Washi Tape which all came in plastic boxes I just wanted all of them but narrowed it down to these and I can't wait to now start crafting with them mostly but occasionally using them on my letters. I now need to be good and not buy anymore tapes... lets see if I can!

 

Did you end up putting in an order also?

Paper Muses.....

My sister is currently making Good Luck cards for the children she has worked with that are leaving this year after their exams. She was complaining that my niece will be happily playing and the minute she would take her things out she'd tell her she has finished and wanders over to investigate what she's doing. So I guess to keep her entertained she encouraged her to make a card for me which I got on Monday morning with a lovely message on the back. The little bunnies remind me of her as she gallops, skips and glides around where ever we are walking and people stop to look at her.

The wreck this journal finally arrived and I was surprised by the size at first as I imagined it to be a little bit bigger then it was but also some of the things in it were quite childish. I'd bought it as a gift and was in 2 minds in giving it as that person might wonder if I was insane or something. In the end I decided I'll ask her to have a look at it and decide whether she wanted it. I'm so glad I did as the reaction was exactly what I'd hoped it would be. I had the card at home just in case she didn't want the book so I'll give that tomorrow.

From what I'd seen on the Internet I created this insane, wrecked card.... use one word continuously (I know that's 2....), make holes in your page, fill a page with circles, colour outside the lines, rip this page..... I kind of forgot the card needed to stand up when getting over excited ripping it, it would have been better doing it along the sides.

I would still like one for the silliness of it.

I also bought a little present for me too....

I mentioned a while back that I wanted some collage pieces for my next project and I really struggled to find what I wanted until I came across the pack thats in the 3rd image. I had it in my basket for a week as I wasn't sure what exactly it contained but I'm glad I did buy it as I love it. The thing that I don't understand is that these images are on the inside of the card and not one seller took a photograph of it to make it easir to shop. I definately wouldn't have bought the 5th photographed one as I'm not into words but it would have meant that I'd have bought something else. I've ended up with a flower overload when I wanted something neutral but its ok as I really like everything and can't wait to use them in some way. I'd really recommended these K&Co packs. I've already created something using the old fashioned bicycle.

What kind of styles are you into?

As you will have noticed mine is more ecentric/vintage with the odd floral and cutesy things.

Oh my! I want Everything!

I wanted some collage pieces so decided to go in search of them on Etsy. Oh my! I want everything as its all so cute but in reality I haven't seen exactly the right thing yet as I just want lots of little images and not book pages, buttons and other little bits and pieces.

It's all in preparation for my Project Wonderful!

Have you had the chance to be creative lately?
