Yesterday two friends and I went on a little road trip to Buffalo, NY, about an hour from here, to visit Buffalo Stamps and Stuff. Sharon has a wonderful little store that is crammed with good things. It's hard to restrain yourself when faced with so many goodies for crafting.
I managed not to buy any 12X12 paper since I have enough to last me a lifetime. I went with a list, and found almost everything on it. Here are my major finds:
I did buy two packages of the new Memory Box 6X6 papers. They are so soft and beautiful. One is shades of pink and the other blues, greens, and purple. The big find was the boxed set of Cavallini stamps. Earlier in the week I saw a beautiful card using one of these stamps, and added a "realistic bird" stamp to my list. Just as I was getting ready to check out, I looked on the floor and there was the exact set I was looking for. I added the new Memory Box stamp to the basket, thinking it will make a good background for some of the lovely stamps in this set. I don't have anything like these, and best of all, I had a 20% off coupon that I was able to use for the set of stamps. Here's a look at the stamps:
Some adhesives & colorful pearls, two containers of Ultra Fine Flower Soft, and a set of Twinkling H2O's rounded out my purchases. Afterwards we went to Pano's for lunch. We're always happy with the delicious food and relaxing atmosphere here.
Great day and then came home to dinner out with Tracy and two good friends at a new restaurant, The French Quarter Cafe--fabulous New Orleans style food.
