Craft booty sneek peek…….
Hey peeps,
Okay I have taken a stack of photos of the obscene amount of craft booty I brought back with me from Canada and the US.
To be very honest I feel very shy about showing it all off……kinda like the kid at school say, na-na-ni-nah-nah…. in your face, and that is definitely not what I want to be like!
SO, i have decided to show you the pile it all makes, and if, and I mean IF you would like to see close ups, (i have taken the photos) then please leave a comment and let me know. If enough of you have the curiosity to see it all, then I will be happy to share, you just can’t think of me as a show off! Is that a deal?
Okay here is the pile sneek peek for you all…..
What do you think? Close ups or no?








OMG!!!!!!! I don’t think you are a show off!!! I think you are absolutely delightfully crazy like me!!!! (when it comes to craft at least!) You are very lucky to have such a great looking stash!! And yes I would love - pretty please - to see close ups of each and everything!!! You are lucky that you live in Nth Qld otherwise you might just have me landing on your doorstep to ooh and ahh irl !!! and know I am not a stalker I am just a papercraft nerd!!!!! Hopeless right!!!???
I have checked out/read all your lovely holiday blogging and thank you for sharing it - wonderful!!!
Bye for now and waiting (only slightly patient for close up pics- hahaha!)

Goodness, did you have to pay import duties on that lot!
Loved reading about your trip, thanks for the updates.
Regards, Cathy
OMG!! I feel just like a child in a candy store (the bit about look but you can’t touch)! PLEASE do share ALL the details and real soon - I’m dying to see it all. Have so enjoyed reading of your travels and the absolutely amazing time you guys have had xx
That’s *all*? Pishaw…LOL! Uhhhhh…YA! Close-ups, please!!!!
Hugs,
Brandi
Good for you!! Know your prices are double ours so way to take advantage of the deals. Must have been a suitcase on its own LOL! Would love to see a close up - curious minds must know LOL! Enjoy playing with your new goodies and we’ll enjoy seeing what you create!! Win/win, love it
Please, please show us all the goodies up close!!! You should not feel embarassed, I think it’s wonderful you were able to get a lot of stuff for yourself at great prices.
Oh my goodness… CLOSE UPS PLEASE!!! Especially of all your PTI goodness! I’m so glad you were able to take advantage of the cheap prices over there…you probably should have bought back even more so that you could have sold some here…that would have covered your craft spending!! Just a thought for next time!
GOSH…..I HAVE to see it Makeesha!!!!! I’m impressed you could get that all home?? how ya do that???
OK, I’ve just wiped the drool off my chin! Yep, you know we need close ups!!! So glad you’re all home safe and sound, and I’m booking my flight to come and immerse myself in your stash!! ;D
xx Sude!
Close ups please!!! We love to live vicariously. Plus I can show my Mum that I’m not that bad in the buying dept after all LOL. I’m so glad you could buy all that gorgeous stuff. I am blessed with knowing the lovely Lavonne who sends me US treats, & the gorgeous Lee-Anne Barry who just spoilt me with some lovely PTI. Its good to know others are blessed too.
Glad you’re home safely. Will expect to see some gorgeous stuff made with all those goodies LOL.
Love Fi xoxoxox
om goodness. I am sooo very jealous. Look at all that stuff. i want i want I want. If only I could get my hands on that US catalogue. You are going to have hours of fun with all those goodies. I bet this picture is only half of what you are bringing back are you holding back somehow….hmmm I wonder I think there might be a few more things you aren’t showing….. I seen a very large box in a previous photo. Enjoy and I can’t wait to see what you create with it all. I hope you have a safe trip home.

OMGGGGGGGGG!!! Look at all that! YES PLEASE!!
Makeesha,
First of all welcome home! I have enjoyed reading your blog as you travelled throught Canada and the States. AND, yes, you definitely have to show us everything that you acquired on your journey! I am very jealous of that gorgeous pile of goodies, but would love to see it up close and personal!!! My girlfriend and I are making a 5 year plan to get to a CHA!

Oh my word Keesh!
So good to hear that you and your craft loot are home.
You must be itching to get creating… or very tired… or both!
oh my goodness - what a fun pile that is! I spot SU, Martha, BG and I think a large pile of Copics! You are going to have a BALL with that lot!
(and I’m joining in the “More pics, More Pics chant!)
YES YES YES YES YES … please?
Oh my gosh….look at all those Copics…and SU! stuff and PTI stamp sets….oh wow you are so lucky…I wanna come and stamp at your place Keesh!
Omigosh!!! What an awesome stash!!!
OMG…… I am jealous…. I have been flicking through my copy of the new USA Stampin’ Up! catty and writing a very long wish list…. pretty much all the SU stamps you bought are on my list and just a few more {lol}.
So happy you had a great time.

Wowwwzers! Great stash! LOL
And I thought I had bought way too much during my stay in Toronto (not just the Bella store - we also stopped at a scrap store in Kingston that was two minutes away from the hotel, the one across the street from our hotel, the michael’s that was two corners away from the hotel, then one last stop at a store that was two minutes away from the hotel in Montreal… Hmm, notice a trend? Those stores are way too conveniently located!)… Anyway, what amazes me the most is that you had to lug all of this stuff around with you during your trip! That must have been a couple of heavy suitcases you had there (’cos cardstock ain’t lightweight!).
Betcha gonna be having trouble deciding where to start when you get to your stamp table… *wink* I cannot wait to see what you’ll share! I want to see those Mo Manning stamps in action!
Have fun!
Cindy
