Craft Haul - April, May 2018 - VIDEO

Hello! Here I am sharing my crafty hauls from April and May. I combined them as I knew I was going to Happy Stampers in Port Sunlight in May.

I'm over on my You Tube channel where you can watch it, or you can watch below. Details of where I bought the items are in the description on my YouTube video.

Thank you so much for all your kind comments on my GDPR posts of the past couple of days and I'm glad some of you have found them useful. We shall see what happens on 25th May!

I'll be back with some crafty posts soon - I have a lot of NBUS to use up!! Happy Crafting Everyone :)

Craft Haul - March 2018 - VIDEO

So this was originally the smallest haul video I'd done, when I got an email to say a local craft shop was closing down and they were having a closing down sale. As I'd been planning a visit next week for some fabrics, I popped over to Samuel Taylor's in Embsay (just outside Skipton) on Good Friday and picked up some things in the sale. I wouldn't say it was the best discount in the world on a closing down sale, but it's all things I'll use, and I got what I needed. It's not closing until the end of April, so I dare say I'll be back.

You can watch my video below, or on YouTube:

Thanks so much for stopping by and Happy Crafting!

Craft Haul - February 2018 - VIDEO

Hi Everyone! Thank you for your well wishes. I still have a cold, as you'll be able to tell from this video, but it is improving every day and I certainly don't feel as ill as I once did.

I'm over on my YouTube channel sharing my crafty haul for last month. Managed to spend a bit this month - ooops! But got some nice things and am desperate to get stuck in and crafting a bit more. And if you stick with the video to 7 minutes or so, I hope you'll forgive my generous mistake!

You can watch it below, or over on my YouTube channel.

Once again, thank you for stopping by and Happy Crafting!

Some news and Craft Haul - January 2018 - VIDEO

Hi Everyone, I've been MIA for a while owing to life getting a little bit hectic, but I'm back and ready to share my haul for the month of January.

First up is my news. I've recently got a paid job, as opposed to my current unpaid work as a full time mum, of  5 hours a week as the school librarian in my daughters' school. It takes me back to what I was doing before I became a Mum and has been good fun. Extra cash, but sadly less time for crafting as I adjust to it all.

Of course working in a school comes with hazards. The germ ridden little darlings then gave me tonsillitis which is a horrific and unimaginably painful disease for which I've been on antibiotics for the past week. I can't wait to see what else I get - been a while since I had the mumps..... 

So that's my life lately, of course it hasn't stopped me buying stuff, so onto my latest haul. You can watch it below or on my YouTube channel, where I'd love it if you stopped by and subscribed.

I've ordered from the following shops I've used before (please note, I don't have any affiliation with these shops), Amazon, Seven Hills Crafts, Clearly Besotted and Samuel Taylors, but I've also got some digital stamps from a newish company run by Patricia Alvarez. It's called Kinda Cute by Patricia and I love her little images,and they are very reasonably priced and don't take up much storage space.

Thanks for stopping by and Happy Crafting!

Craft Haul - November, December 2017 - VIDEO

A very Happy New Year to you all! I hope you had a good Christmas and that Santa was very good to you all.

I'm back for my first video of 2018. I'm aiming to be much more consistent with my videos and do a haul and a crafty video once a month. Nothing like starting the new year with good intentions!

This haul is things I purchased at the end of November and in December. I actually won some of the goodies I'm showing from Dies to Die For in their Christmas giveaway - not bad at all!

Here's to a supremely crafty 2018!

Craft Haul - September, October, November - VIDEO

Hi Everyone! Despite my craft room being in a bit of a mess for much of September and October, I have still managed to buy a few bits and pieces here and there, so I have a haul video to share with you today. I've ordered some online at Seven Hills Crafts, but I also had some purchases from my September Copic class with Dies to Die For Pop Up shop, a trip to Stamp Magic in Doncaster with the lovely Natalie, and popping into my local Hobbycraft.

Thank you to all of my lovely YouTube subscribers, as I'm almost at 200! I know there are lots of people out there with a load more, but 200 is quite a milestone and I just want you to know you are all very much appreciated for popping by and watching and leaving me such nice comments.

Happy Crafting Everyone - I'm off to make more Christmas cards :) 

Craft Haul - July, August 2017 - VIDEO

Hi Everyone! I made it back from Edinburgh in one piece and had a wonderful time. More on that in another post, but in the meantime I have a haul video for you of the crafty goodies I bought in July and August.

Don't forget that the 30 Day Coloring Challenge starts on Friday 1st for a whole month. I believe this is number 8 and you can read about my previous exploits (July 2016 - Week 1, Week 2, Week 3, Week 4) and I have a video on how I usually prepare - if I have the time. I still have quite a lot of images I stamped previously to colour in for this challenge - and of course a whole pile of new stuff!!

Happy Crafting Everyone!

Craft Haul - April, May, June 2017 - VIDEO

Hi Everyone! Those of you in the UK, how are you surviving the heat wave? Seriously, it's nearly 9pm here as I type and it feels like it's about 24 degress outside. Musn't grumble as it's lovely to have the sunshine, but an ice bath would be really nice right now....

Anyway, I have a haul video of the purchases I've made over the last three months, including the recent craft fair I went to that some of you may have seen on Instagram.

You can watch the video here or over on my YT channel and if you haven't already, would be lovely if you could subscribe. That way you don't miss any in future :)

Craft Haul - Jan, Feb, Mar 2017 - VIDEO

Hello there and welcome to my first video from my new craft room. It's a haul video, so I hope you don't mind. I'm still testing out the video set up as I rather unfortunately discovered that I couldn't put my camera mount arm right above the window due to a large steel joist. Obviously this is there to stop the building falling down, for which I'm very grateful, but it makes me a little sad because I may have to move the desk away from the window :(

In the meantime I discovered I could use my tripod in an interesting configuration and this video is the result of that experiment:

I've purchased from a couple of new shops and with one, Dies to Die For, I can't seem to add the photos of the products to my InLinkz links. I'm still figuring out what the problem is, it may be me, it may be their website, but I'll try to figure it out so I can link properly. Also the Enamel Accents don't appear on the Samuel Taylors website either, but I can assure you, that's where I got them!

Here's the video. You can watch here or go to my YouTube channel - if you're not already subscribed, please do, I hope to bring more videos in the next few months.

My Favorite Things Prize Unpackaging!

Well Hello! If you recall, I won a prize recently of $100 for My Favorite Things thanks to a comment I made on Stephanie Klauck's blog. I waited for a couple of things to come back in stock and then I spent it! 

Here's the video of me unpackaging it all. It's also available in HD on my YouTube channel.

Here's a list of what I purchased. I've linked to the US site as that's where I got them, but if you would like a UK or European stockist, I highly recommend Seven Hills Crafts - it's where I normally buy US supplies.

Post Lent Craft Haul - April 2016 - VIDEO

Hi Everyone! How are you all? Still Easter Holidays here with us, so occupied with small people and relatives visiting, and not getting much time to craft. I have however, managed to come up with a nice video for my 100th post (can you believe that?) showing all the lovely goodies I bought after Lent. I'm itching to get back into it all in the next few weeks.

I've bought stuff from Simon Says Stamp, Seven Hills Crafts, Cult Pens, Lucy's Shop, Samuel Taylors and of course Clearly Besotted. Wow! It's a lot!

   
Hope you found it interesting and I'll be back sharing cards and another video with you in the coming week.

Thank you for taking the time to visit, please do say Hello! in the comments - I love hearing from you all!
