The sad state of my craft room today. Returning home on Tuesday, I had multiple packages and a suitcase full of craft stuff. Everything just got piled up on the counter. Now I have to clean this before I can begin crafting again...

Working on some wedding related projects today. I'm collecting Project Life advice cards and photos for the wedding scrapbook. You can also see the paper bouquet kit that I want to make for the rehearsal. And I've got some dresses to package and return.
Sunday Haul #11
I grabbed a few random craft products during the 50% off sale of Joann Fabrics. I bought some of the Heidi Swapp mini planner line. I'm not doing the planner, but some of the accessories are pretty cute. I also snagged a woodgrain embossing folder. Been wanting one of these for awhile now.
I found one of the PL value kits that I wanted. Loving the idea of throwing in some simple balck and white cards into my more colorful spreads. Also bought: WRMK journaling cards, sparkly hearts, jewels, enamel dots, work stickers, and a 3D wedding cake sticker.
I really went to Michael's for snail but came out with a tube of pink washi tape, snail (yeah!), a new corner rounder (right size this time), and alphas. The Scotch washi tape came from the Target clearance rack.
Sunday Haul #10
Lots of fun packages arrive this week. Let's start with what I got before leaving for Indiana: I made a few purchases from one of my FB swap and sell groups. I grabbed partials of multiple kits.
Then I received my Paper Issues swag bag for March. I also love the mix of embellishments. These are my go-to supply kits for Project Life pages.

Finishing up a banner for a baby shower this week. Simple, but cute! We don't know the names of the babies, so I went with a generic "Welcome Baby" in fairly gender neutral colors.
Sunday Haul #9
I went a little crazy during Joann's big sale last week... There were too many great deals! Among those that i bought were the Polka Dot Party and Flea Market PL mini kits. Not my absolute favorite designs, but I do like them a lot. I also grabbed a ton of mini alphas to use in the PL albums.

Finishing up some bridal shower invitations. These are going in the mail today!
Sunday Haul #8
I got my February stamp club order. While in stamp club, I'll be using it to buy mainly cardstock and tools. This month I bought:
- Silver foil paper
- Gold foil paper
- Vellum paper
- Window sheets
- Blushing Bride Ink Pad
Later in the week I went to Michael's to get some ideas for bridal shower invites and decorations. I came across this collection that was 40% off. I snapped up a ton of supplies to use. I also grabbed some white paper garland, a banner kit, jute rope, and flowers. The berry baskets will be decorated with all these supplies and used as centerpieces and favors at the shower. It's going to be March 22nd, so I need to get moving on all the details!

The state of my craft area today... Working on examples for my March and April classes. Plus that mess on the left is my meet and greet card for Saturday's open house.
Sunday Haul #7
Just a few acquisitions for this week... First stop was Michael's to grab some snail, but of course I can't always just get snail. I ended up grabbing some fun silver alphas, rhinestones, kite embellishments, envelopes, and a fun canvas bag. I also bought another craft knife as I somehow broke my old one.
I took advantage of the blowout sale on Becky Higgins. I grabbed a variety pack of page protectors, Boy Theme Pack, Coral Core Kit, and Slate Core Kit. I actually forgot that I already own the Boy Theme pack. I guess with three boys I'll find places for the doubles. I'm planning on using the Slate Core Kit exclusively for the twins scrapbooks.
I saw Steals was offering the entire SNAP Life Documented and I had to have it. I actually ended up buying half of the collections from Steals and half from Amazon (better prices on a few things). I am going to use some of it for my planner next year, but most will be going into my PL supply stash.
