It's WEDNESDAY! What's On Yours???#776
My Craft Stash package contained TimHolzts inks and oxide, and a notch and corner punch, which was less than half price. But I think my baragain of the week, from a charity shop, was the 'as new' six hole puncher, for £3, seen in the left hand corner. I've been looking for one of those for ages, so, a lucky find! Now, I'm off to Emerald Crafts for my last look before they've gone forever. Have a great WOYWW!? week. 'See' you all later! Thank you for stopping by.
Ps...I am going to do a freebie later!
So, with my new goodies, I salvaged my mistake... and used my new inks and oxide inks over some stencils (I had in my stash) and way hey! I think that will do for some ATC's.

Some great fun things to play with. I love thrift shop finds. And so many businesses here are also closing. Our mail is so long in going and coming...but I have to order on line it seems . Enjoy and good luck on that shopping sprea.
ReplyDeleteHave fun with the new goodies. Stay safe and Happy WOYWW. Sarah #13
ReplyDeleteThank you! You too!!
DeleteWhat a lucky find! I trawl the opshops regularly to see what I might pick up!
ReplyDeleteBut I have had two shops close recently that were my standby craft supply places. What a shame!
Happy WOYWW! Susan #12
My Crafty Carity shop closed at the end of last year, with a promise that they would reopen it as soon as they could get a shop....well, they did get another shop, but just filled it with second hand clothes.
DeleteI don't know Emerald crafts, it's such a shame when your favourite shops close. Hobbiliciouys has shut recently and their's no where like them for MDF projects, very sad, Have fun with the new goodies. Sending woyww hugs Angela x11x
ReplyDeleteIt is sadd, but Ollie the owner is off to do something else, so I wished him luck. Unforturnetly there wasn't really anything much left! No TM Holtz inks (which have always been cheeper there than anywhere, and no glues. But I did get some 'SnomeTime 2' backing papers,and two different sets of 3D decoupage to match what I already have.
DeleteI love that light blue paint I see in your last photo, I have some. But when I use it on my Gelli plate, my brayer just slides around. It's very viscous I think! Great luck finding the punch you wanted! Luckily, so far (knock on wood) I haven't had the disaster pull that you had. Was it using the blue paint? Have a great week, Lindart #18
ReplyDeleteno I don't think is was...it was just a spare bit of heavierweight paper and I don't thing I put enough paint on. Anyway! I've already made three ATC's out ofwhat I could save!
DeleteThat's a shame about Emerald Crafts, I have a friend who moved to Poole who loves them! Great finds you struck, well done. Happy WOYWW Helen #2
ReplyDeleteEven Sam Calcott mentioned them once...I always got my large bottle of Collall glue from them because they were over £5 cheaper than CraftStash
DeleteWhy did the paper stick to the geli plate? Did you have to dunk it in water? It is so sad all the craft shops are closing, although with the cheap products from China they can’t compete. Happy WOYWW. Angela #7
ReplyDeleteI don't think I put enough paint on it to get a pull, so it stuck! But I have managed to make something out of the bits I had left!
DeleteAlways sad to hear about a business closing. But it looks like you got a great haul. I do find any sort of coated paper, and especially photo paper, will stick to the gel plate. Woo hoo on the punch! Is it for a planner?
ReplyDeleteHappy WOYWW!

Yes, I have a couple of 'planners' (from charity shops) with the six holes, and was finding a bother to get the holes in the right place, now it's easy peasy!!
