WOYWW 270

Well hello again, Wednesday desk hoppers!  Reporting for duty at the Stamping-Ground

Sunday was a grand day out at Stevenage, (wrote about it here) but as promised I'll share the stash pics again!
 first there is this lot.... lots of it on the list so that doesn't count, right?!







and then this... some of these were on the list so they don't count either!
and I had happy mail today too - a little while ago I won a fingerprint charm from our very own Diane (Morti) on Facebook for her jewellery business made by her own fair hands...
I couldn't get a very good photo of it, because the camera insisted on firing it's flash! Hopefully this link will take you to her FB photo! which is much clearer. Thank you so much Diane.

I've started playing with the new stash (so that's money well spent!) and I'll share it soon!

I finally got back in the swing of things for WOYWW. Jeezzzz, July went by so fast, that I stumbled into August.

I'm swooning at all that lovely stash! Honestly, I would have bought most of that myself :) The stencils and the archival inks are certainly on my "need it" list!

Good morning Helen, and thanks for visiting me so bright and early in this morning.
Didn't you have fun shopping at the show! What a great haul, and if you really need to justify the purchases, write a list of all you bought and then you can say it is all on the list so none of it counts. :)

Fab spending spree Helen, I would love to go around a show with you, you search out the most interesting stuff.
Lucky you too, what a fab pendant you won. It looks beautiful, hope you get lots of opportunities to wear it.
Thanks again for the hook u last week.
Love Neet xx 27 ish (forgotten)

Yah, if it's on the list as required stash, it doesn't count. Sure. And using it already means you were totally right to buy it, so your conscience is clear. Mine is a little blurred with envy, but it's all good!!

Lynsey said...

Love the stash! Necklace is beautiful, Lyns #35

Kate said...

Great stash, is that the limited edition paint set I spy?

Felix the Crafty Cat said...

Hi Helen, I fully agree that if you have it on the list then you must have used it up and therefore need more, fully justified in buying it and we have to test out new stuff too, so there you go Lol!
That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it LOL!
Have a good week and happy crafting, Angela x 38

I do love your stash posts. And what a pretty necklace! Who knew Morti was such a talented beader? I guess the button bouquets should have been a hint! I have a couple of grab bags on the way, random stamps, perhaps with duplicates. Maybe I'll run the list past you when they arrive.... might not be totally your style but you never know :)

Happy WOYWW!

I love your new stash - I want a few of those things myself! Maybe - but not this month - too much other things to think about!
Lots of hugs,
