Christmas has come early!!

Yes it is literally like Christmas for me! Why? Because i went to the NEC show yesterday and bought loooooooooads of stuff! In my defence i don't get out much and well.. every gal has to treat herself sometimes! I went thinking i won't get too much stuff and recently bought a fair bit and have lots of design team stuff to do too...but well we all know plans like that never happen!

So here is some piccies of my new stash...lots of new techniques to try out!

Lots of inks and messy stuff to play with

Paint Fusion stuff i wanted to get - sheena was amazing, makes it look so easy!

Loads of embellishments and flowers that i 'needed'!

A few papers - as there weren't that many there!

Jewels, Ribbon and few embellishments
Lovely pre printed memory boards, £1 clock kits & jewellery card kits

LOTV are now longer doing cute squares, so got the new replacement :D

I said i wasn't going to be buying many stamps, got a bit excited at the LOTV stand as usual!

Lovely new releases from Jayne @ Stamposaurus for my DT duties!

Oh and some lovely new dies!

Here is cheeky jasmine looking shocked as i've just caught her stealing my new stash!

Now just gotta find more TIME to play with it all!!
