I have been shopping again (still from the closing down Stamp Attic, where Wendy is still adding new things to the sale...this bundle arrived at work last Wednesday (typically!) and there will probably be another one arriving at work today..
Haven't got very far with them yet, decided I'd do the backgrounds whilst the card is still in one piece and then...
so the cutter is out ready to cut along my pencil lines (which are on the back so I can still see them)
Then I just need to decide how to finish them off.. and maybe make some more!
Not giving you too much of a peek so the "surprise" isn't spoiled.
Till next time, happy WOYWW. Head to Julia's Stamping Ground for the links and all the info .

Aah Helen, I too went shopping this week, got home from my spree to find a whole load of boxes from last week's online crazy time waiting for me. Clever idea to create the background before cutting out..Cx #6
Wow, between the goodies on your desk and those beautiful tags and ATCs on the previous post, I am on visual overload!
Have a WOYWWtastic week! :-)

At least you've started your ATCs. I really must, if I want to bring them to the crop. How has it come around so quick?!
I am nowhere near getting my ATCs designed, let alone made! Time to get a wiggle on then! As for your sale stash...lucky girl! It all looks faberoonie! #18
I bet you'll use those witchy stamps loads! In fact, are they small enough for ATCs? That would appeal to the WOYWW coven ;-)
Hugs, LLJ 13 xx
Now you're making me panic! We need to discuss your travel arrangements too.
Isd your cutter new, or do you diligently put it back in the packet? Colour me impressed if you do! I'm a great one for chucking our packaging and am living to regret that now as I try to re-organise my clear stamps. I think. I cant quite decide, I just know that my current system is useless!
I'll add my voice to the interst in the witchy stamps too, I've looked at them a few times and each time have decided I need to see some ideas first......
Oh man! DS's girlfriend has a passion for all things raven. I may have to grab that stamp if they still have it, or get a couple of stamped images from you if I can twist your arm. I had a similar Smeared Ink one that I used for a card, blocking out the N to make it evermore :)
See you in a few weeks then? Are we swapping?
Happy WOYWW!

Hi Helen. I've been making ATCs too and am hoping to send a batch to the crop for those that are going 😀
Hugs,

I see we're both at the same stage with the ATCs for the swap!! Sorting my background is going to take some time this year .... I have the new paints to play with!!!
Have a good week

Imagine my surprise when I saw the Halloween stamps! So much crafty fun sitting on your desk! Looking forward to seeing how you finish those ATC's! Diane #28
It's sad that Stamp Attic had to close down, but you've been stocking up with some great stuff. It sounds like your ATC plan of action is underway. Happy WOYWW! #35
I was surprised to see Halloween stamps but then realized if the store is going out of business there would be all kinds of stuff going out the door. I do love the withcy stamps for sure! Happy WOYWW!

Hi Helen, I am awaiting an arrival from Wendy myself and will probably have to take another look today. I really will miss the Stamp Attic for sure.
Have a great woyww and happy crafting, Angela x 30
Aaahhh, new goodies to play with! Have fun! I must start my ATCs too... thanks for reminding me. Happy woyww and a hug from Holland, Marit #38
Oh Helen! Great buys again! Going to start my ATCs while we are away! Chrisx
Oooooh loving the look of that new stash. In particular the raven is gorgeous and the stripes!
Thanks for coming to see me already.

You've got quite a haul with that pile of goodies! Are you getting ready for Halloween with the witches? Nice busy desk! Happy WOYWW!

I think it would be disappointing if you weren't sharing new stash!! Look forward to seeing those ATC's at the crop. I'm busy colouring away for mine. Take care Zo xx 44
Lovely new stash to play with. Those Halloween stamps look really intricate and I'm sure you can do lots with those.
Good idea to do the background of the ATCs before you cut them!
Thanks for your visit and kind comment.
Have a great week,
Lisca#19
Argh, I'd forgotten about the ATC swap, might be able to do just one in time. It's times like this that I wish I could use a stamp! That's a clever idea to do all those ATC's on one page.
Have a great week,

Lovely space you have. And one can NEVER shop too much for art & craft supplies. Hee :)
I swear shopping is one third of crafting. The other thirds are organizing and then actual crafting itself . Have such fun with your new goodies
happy woyww

Great looking desk and I love those new stamps! I have been buying my ezmount from Crafters Companion. It seems to be the cheapest over here. Thanks for visiting my desk earlier. Vickie #61
Hi Helen, love the Stampendous cling stamps, the Poe Raven is one of my favourites! I too need to get a move on with my ATC- atop of my 'must-do' list for next week! Running late this week, it sort of ran away from me,lol.Have a great week, Hugs, Shaz# 11 xx
Fab haul from The Stamp Attic - and it looks like you're being highly productive... can't wait to see how the ATCs look on the other side!
