WOYWW 287 - it's here (December that is!)

Hi, and welcome for another world trip the easy way - courtesy of Julia's The Stamping Ground .  I am writing this earlier than usual, as Tuesday will have seen me out for an early Christmas "do" after work, and whilst it may not be a very late night, I couldn't take the chance of having time to write this when I got home...
There are, once again, new goodies to share - no Black Friday bargains, but some a bit of a save on some and just plain greed for the rest!

The gelatos are the bargain, with £10 off, and the DecoArt Media sprays I enjoyed so much I had to get a load more... the little bottles are antiquing creams and the fat tub is sand texture paste.  Whilst I was buying them, I had to have the stencils too! (they are 12x12 to give you an idea of size)  Good job I can have parcels delivered at work, although as it turns out they may have been delivered on Saturday at home, but I couldn't take the chance.
Just need a load of free time to be able to play with them all now!

That is good that you can have parcels delivered to work. It's a pain when you are not in the house and a delivery is on its way.
Love the Gelatos although I don't do that much with the few I have. Need a lesson - are you up for a bit of cyber tuition.
Have a good week.
Hugs, Neet 18 xx

I had to smile at getting stuff delivered at work! I'm at home all day with DH at work, so I'm ok here!! Mind you, it's sneaky Christmas gifts rather than crafty stuff, mostly. Enjoy playing with your new toys - wish I could join you! Happy WOYWW, Chris # 15

Those sprays a sound fun, though if I had a go, it would everything covered in the stuff except the paper!! I'm so glad you resisted Black Friday, that for me cross! Goad you got a bargain though :-)

The gelatos look like a real bargain, actually I think you often pick up a great collection of goodies. Hope you get some time to play.

These goodies make me jealous, wanted to try gelatos myself, but funny enough they are hard to find in Germany, nobody seems to store them only the packs of 4. Have lots of fun playing with it.
Thanks for you earlier visit.
Cheers

I always come to see what is new and you never disappoint! I can't find those sprays here...I looked. Were none to be found on line on Black Friday or Cyber Monday's specials either. Can't wait to see what you make with them. #24

Oh I love gelatos! I use them all the time. I agree, I need a good chunk of time off work to play. Happy WOYWW! Sandy Leigh #40

Lovely looking goodies - hope you have lots of fun playing. I managed to be very restrained on Black Friday and Cyber Monday... still dealing with the aftershock of USA crafty spending sprees!!

Hi Helen,
Thanks for your lovely comment re my Christmas cards. I do enjoy making them, but honestly, when they are finished I lose all interest in actually writing in and sending them. Have to force myself to do that job :(
I'm interested in seeing how you find those gelatos. So far I've avoided buying them :)
Have a good week,
RosA # 3

So happy for your happy mail! I have been waiting, what seems days and days for some new stamps. I am retired and think each day they will come. Can't wait to get them and play with them. Enjoy yours! #55

We just used our Gelatos in our art page, they'd been sitting in the box neglected but they are fun to play with.

Hi Helen, I am sorry I am so late getting around for this most recent WOYWW desk hop. I am loving all your new supplies, and a little jealous while I have absolutely no right to be jealous with all of my WIP's, UFO's and thoughts swimming around in my head! LOL!
Hugs,
