GOT JO'S TAG BOOK!

Package from Australia! Got my tag book swap from Jo yesterday. So thought I would post about it today! Great green and white tissue paper. The tag book came in this container. Lot of lovely detail in the package. First tag sweet little boy.Great Paris tag, the second one.Third tag says it all!!I saved this cute little guy that was the stamp on the package. Jo did a lot of sewing on this project. I can sew but don't do it, but looking at Jo's maybe I should incorporate some in my projects. Have to dig out my machine. Went to Mike's and HL yesterday but was just too late for the bargains. Everything was gone , and they were stocking spring stuff.
They also had valentine stuff out. Only a couple things 40% off. HL had some Tim Holtz at 30% off so I got a package of fragments. Stopped at a different WM and found a few Christmas sticker type things for next year they were 48 cents. And that was all my after Christmas bargains. Bummer :( Going to check for yard sales this AM and maybe make a quick trip to Jo-Anne's I do have a 40% off and a 10% off total purchase. I am really wanting a Big Shot and wonder if I could get it with these coupons...that would make it 50% off...works for me. lol Thanks Jo so much for being my swap partner I love it. That's all for now thanks for looking and come back soon

MICHAELS HAUL

Got an flash email from Michaels with a 2 day 50 % of sale Recollections was the one I was interested in. All embellishments were on sale. They don't advertise these email prices in store. So I went wild lol , but I could have bought more! Got these roses love them! 50% off you cant beat it. Sale date Nov 1 & 2 so you still have time to get some goodies!Got a bunch of Recollections Christmas embellishments, you should have seen me trying to make things, with next to nothing for Christmas. Started already on projects. Got these humming bird charms they were 50 cents each 60% off made them 20 cents! Some of these were in the dollar bin, but the charms were 50% off. Got several paper pads, K&Company Julianne was 60% off, it might be an old pad, but new to me so in the buggy it went! Recollections Sugar Plum was 50 % off. Donna Salazar Antiquities was 60% off, and I got two Halloween / Fall pads K&Company and Recollections that were 70% off I know if I did not get them I would be upset next fall with no supplies and have to pay full price that I would not do!! I did not take a pic of all the paper pads. The best buy was of a dog paper pad with a few things in the package, it was &14.95 marked down to $5.95 when I went to cach out it rang up ant 1 cent lol now that was almost free!!!! WEATHER IN MELBOURNE FL--- Beautiful, not humid, in the 70's a little windy but great! 60's at night. I am working on a mini Christmas album. I have never made an album mini or other wise. But after watching many You Tube videos that got me inspired, I am going to start making them for gifts and to sell. Still hoping to do a show in the spring, we'll see. Any way I will show you soon, I am making a tutorial, sort of, about it. Never did that either. Should be interesting lol. I named this first mini album Sugar Plums since I am using the new Recollections paper. I think in Dec. I am going to have a challenge THE 12 DAYS OF CHRISTMAS. It will be a tag challenge so this gives you time to think about it. I think I will go to the other Michaels that is local and look around after all there is one more day to the sale lol. I found all Michaels are not the same, carrie a lot of different things. I am lucky that I have 2 with in 20 min one north the other south of me. All for now thanks for looking and come back soon.
