Make It Show, Farnborough

Hi everyone,

What a lovely sunny day it is here in Surrey today! Sadly I won't be seeing much of it as I am snowed under with jobs to do inside. I'm still busily working to finish the first batch of 100 cards for the order I blogged about last week - they are nearly there! Plus I've had a load of orders on Etsy, despite the fact that I've not had time to do any marketing/promotion recently. And I have a 7000 word assignment due in to Kingston Uni as I'm doing the second module of a Masters degree at the moment. Phew, feel tired just talking about it!

Just a quick post today to show you all the goodies I bought on my visit to the Make It Show in Farnborough on Friday.



There's over £120 worth in that little pile! My favourite purchases were these Memory Box dies:


I can't wait to have a play with these but have had to put them away until my essay is written!

 I also bought a set of Spellbinder dies called "Fleur de Lis" which I think will be good to use as a base on some quilled cards, as will the decorative Marianne oblong die. And I couldn't resist this EK Success punch.



As well as these exciting purchases I took the chance to stock up on more mundane items - coloured A4 card, white card, sticky pads, double sided tape, ribbon, gems etc.

These rolls of ribbon were a bargain - 23 metres for £3.00 - sorry its a dreadful photo - took the photos last night in artificial light.



Have a great week. I'll try and pop in next week for a very quick post. Don't forget to spread the news about my Mother's Day card giveaway (scroll down).
