I had preordered Ali Edwards' WITL kit, but the transparencies weren't sent. Thankfully they were only delayed a few days.

I spent all weekend attempting to completely clean out my craft area. Here's the state of the counter today. I didn't take a picture from Friday, but I promise you it was piled high with stuff. I ended up with multiple bags and boxes of things to sell at our upcoming craft garage sale. Almost 174 priced items ready to go! Now I can actually get back to crafting...
Sunday Haul #24
First delivery of the week was July's Messy Box. For awhile i didn't know what to use these for. And then I hit upon using the kits for the Find Your Voice class. Perfect combo. I'm itching to use those silver stars for something soon.
My monthly SU stamp club order arrived. After one of my customers ordered it, I had to buy the Happy Happenings stamp set. It is such a great collection of sentiments. I also finally bought the aqua painters to experiment with watercoloring. And I snapped up the metallic sequins and Everyday Chic washi tape from the weekly deals. Can't wait to use my fun new supplies.
And finally look what showed up on my doorstep! Ali Edwards' Week in the Life kit! I preordered the kit almost a month ago and couldn't wait to get my kit! I opted for the grey "Stories" album and it's absolutely perfect for my style. I quickly looked through the supplies, but I want to keep everything together until we get closer to the appointed week in August.
Second delivery (from store to my house via me) was this haul. I went in for page protectors for my 8.5" x 11" household binder and came out with all these pretties! Thankfully I remembered the page protectors.

Finally using my ABM Messy Box. Starting the Find Your Voice class with rukristin. And this counter is a colossal mess. Hoping to share my spreads soon!
Sunday Haul #23
Popped into Michael's with the twins. Went a bit overboard on the clearance items. The only thing in this pile that I can justify is the clothespins. I'm using them for Stamp Club this week and the retreat in October. Although, I probably don't need that many...
Sunday Haul #22
A fun haul post for this week... I went to Joann's to use a 60% off regular priced item and ended up with quite a load of stuff. And I didn't even use my coupon on any of this. Turns out all of their scrapbooking supplies were 30% and a ton of stuff was on clearance (note the red tags). I snapped up a ton of things for Arthur's scrap albums, a few stickers for specific spreads (flip flops for beach and pool spreads, SF for our upcoming day in the city), and some rhinestones (getting low). I ended up using my coupon on two white t-shirts that we are planning on tie-dying next week.
I also saw my good friend Pam and got my June club order. Watercolor Wings and coordinating die cuts plus some dimensionals. I can't wait to use my new stamp set for class.
Sunday Haul #21
My Stampin' Up club order came in this week. So excited to play with my new goodies next week!
The box contained:
- Homemade for You Stamp Set
- Happy Patterns Decorative Masks
- Baker's Box Thinlits
- A While Lot of Lovely Stamp Set
- Pretty Petals DSP Stack
- Pretty Petals CS
Desktop Monday #4
Working on the twins' PL pages this week. I'm planning on highlighting this project on Thursday...
Sunday Haul #20
Popped into Michael's to get snail this week and walked out with more craft supplies. Yeah, I have a problem. I grabbed a Heidi Swapp mini album (for $1.99!), HS glitter stickers, HS stickers, HS journaling and design cards, and snail (glad I remembered that!).
I also scored the September Skies Core Kit for half price, two fun clearance stamps, and the PL Christmas theme pack ($1.79!).
Sunday Haul #19
A few acquisitions this week. The first was actually something that should have arrived a few weeks back. I placed an order with Becky Higgins and my package arrived missing an item. Thankfully I alerted customer service and I received my missing item this week: Floral Theme Pack.
I also received two cute little kits from a FB swap and shop group that I'm a part of. I picked up Echo Park's Scott and Bella Blvd.'s Tiny Tots. These are going into the Arthur PL supplies box.
