NEC goodies!

Hello lovely people,

As many of you will know, on Friday I was at the Hobbycrafts show at the NEC and I thought you might like to see all the lovely things that fell into my bag during the day!

Unsurprisingly my biggest spend of the day was on the LOTV stand!  I got a couple of retired stamps, the gorgeous Happy bears clear stamp set and these yummy paper pads...


I want to try my hand at some non-card stuff too so I got some MDF hearts...LOTS of them but here's the 3 different sizes...


and some plain gift bags...

I wasn't going to buy any dies, but have had my eye on these pretty Memory Box dies for a while and couldn't resist any longer!
I got a couple of others I haven't photographed, just a border die and some tag shape dies.


This next item won't be to everyone's taste but I got some new Magnolias, very cheap as they were unmounted.
I quickly mounted them up this evening and stamped them on some scrap paper so you could see which ones I got.


And the day wouldn't have been complete without a few odds and ends of lace, buttons and pearls!


So, it was a great day out and I have been happily playing with my new LOTV stamps and papers today :-)

I am also very excited to now have 101 followers so watch this space for some candy, once I put something together... some of that lace I bought might just find it's way into there ;-)

Thanks for visiting and I hope you have all had a lovely weekend.

  1. Wow, lots of lovely goodies Kat. I haven't gotten around to taking pictures of mine yet, they are still in the bags as I had a craft fair today and was getting ready for it yesterday.
    It was such a treat to see the Magnolia stand there this time, I got some lovely dies but no stamps I'm afraid. Look forward to seeing your makes with these goodies.

  3. Ha ha is it me you mean as you know I hate Tilda. I always head straight for LOTV too, their papers are very scrummy and a few stamps always fall into my basket. How exciting that Magnolia were there though, never seen them at a show as I do love their dies, though they are expensive, I use them a lot, look forward to seeing your makes, have fun x
