Morning, WOYWWERS! I mean afternoon Crafty Peoples! Hope today started off well for you... It's raining here! Surprise! I'm actually in my craft room today... and in the kitchen, joining in with WOYWW!? over on Julia's Stamping Ground!
Above you can see my small haul from Craftelier arrived, it took ages!! (Temu is quicker) thought it was coming from here, in England, but of course it wasn't. I wanted The Magic Forest, had some from my local Craft Shop...Emerald Crafts, about 35 minutes away but they only had some stickers (which I already had from them) and I really wanted more (don't we all!) But they did have some 'Deep Cocoa' A4 240gsm card, which I'm going to use for the journal. I've seen a few YouTube tutorials using The Magic Forest, which I'm going to use as a guide. I did try CraftStash first, wanted to use my 10% VIP, but no luck. 'Your search returned no results'
At Emerald Crafts I also bought some Distress Oxide 'cracked pistachie' ink (the first one I've ever bought) and this cute Tim Holtz booklet 'District Market', the only one they had with £3 off, so, that jumped into my basket too. Then I drove up to see Emma (lovely daughter) and the three of us went on to Hobby Craft, were some goodies popped into Niamh's basket.
Now I know you're going to moan, but....this pen holder came from Temu....it appears I had some 'rebate' so this was, well... no money at all! A little while ago this arrived... under £2 pounds...there is a dearer one.. (about £6) It's a little photo box with light and extra coloured felt to add inside...
It's on my cooker. It folds flat and has its own little bag too. You can even take pictures from the top.
What else arrived?? Oh, well, I'm not having much luck with my GoPro Camera, still not found the grapper to hold it, so I ordered this for my phone...
Don't laugh, I can hear you! That thick wobbley bendy bit is very strong and hard to pull into the shape you want...I mean, it was getting in the way of any filming and...for the life of me, could I open that foot that fixes onto the shelf? No! Temu got the seller on line and he couldn't workout why I couldn't just unscrew it and said he'd get back to me... Meanwhile, me wanting to use it NOW, drove over to Bro and Sis inlaws where Big Pat said, "threads twisted, you'll never get that open," and used a dirt big knife to false it open and Hey Presto! That did it... meanwhile, I have seen a phone holder with a ringed light attached that looks perfect for what I want it for...on Amazon. So, that's it from me! Happy WOYWW!? Thank you for stopping by!
