If you haven't been to Michael's in a while....

They got a ton of new embellishments in!
They have the following:
  • New Studio G Valentine's stamps (the wooden ones, and some different clear sets than they had the other day i was there)
  • These things from K & Co.:
Adhesive Lace Paper... (on my "To Buy" List)
Pink glittery chipboard
The matching Rub-On's, Rhinestones, and Felt Heart Stickers. (Of which i may get some)



  • They also had new things from Making Memories:
Mini Metal Tabs: that say love, kiss, or images of hearts.
Heart Shaped Brads in a variety of colors,
Epoxy Buttons



and so much more!! Their Dollar section has tons of great stuff too....
But i'm on a budget now with the card making andd craft project stuff. $20 per pay check. I can't go overboard anymore. Today i spent $15 of my $20 allowance.
I got: 2 K & Co. small mat stacks, 2 packages of matching 3D stickers, 4 tiny matching spools of $.99 ribbon, a small metal wash tub for $1 that i'm going to work my Valentine Magic on, 2 Studio G wooden stamps (that will go perfectly with my christmas gift to my self).

This christmas gift to myself that i have yet to speak of?! I bought two sets of Nestabilities! The Large Scalloped Circles, and the Large Regular Circles.
I have made some cards (mostly ones with the great K & Co. embellishments that D's sister got me for christmas and the stuff i got for $.99 at Gabe's the day after christmas.) But i did use the scalloped circle on a card this morning that turned out pretty cute! I want to make more things tonight before i post. And i also want to work on some things to sell on Etsy.com. I need to make some $$$ so i can pay for my craft habit.

  5. I just love the K & Co adhesive lace paper ribbon. I like to tint it with a sponge & some ink & It is even great under aluminum tape. I'd never seen it in white though! Congrats on your goodies :0) Mel
