showing off some of my recent scrapbooking haul

i'm back and i'm going to blog with vengeance...ha! the physical overhaul wasn't quite successful, so i thought about the arts and crafts haul.  in short, i have half a luggage of max' & co stuff.  another luggage is scraping and beyond stuff of course.

i actually have ordered graphic 45's alice and steampunk, but i couldn't resist when i saw them firsthand. also some of the older batch.  i'm liking this company, although i never made anything with them yet.

 i saw these my mind's eye collections on the afternoon i was leaving back.  of course i planned the trip back on a thursday because that's the day made with love weekly new arrival are displayed.  i love these classy glittery collections.

more papers...

stamps and stuff...

thickers, sassasfrass' alphabets which i've been looking for a while now, and melody ross' alphabet stamps from gcd studio.  don't everyone have more thickers than they can use and still keep buying for more.

some prima, wools and stuff...

7 gypsies, tim holtz, maya road, studio calico, ....

alcohol inks, utee, stamps, embossing stuff, glue, glimmer mist, clearly pearl, dabber paint, some tools and ranger's stuff....

you bet i have more...but  i'm tired of unpacking them now.

laine's and papermarket was having promo of 45% off for punches.  although i don't use them much, but couldn't resist the deal.  i also got lots of 40% off coupons.  first from their make and take and from my first day shopping spree.  i also picked a few of somerset magazines.  they're about the only craft magazies i consider worth buying these days.  

the rest are polymer stuff—molds, studio sculpey and et cetera.  canvas, frames, lots and lots of pewter and copper charms, cameos and kin—thanks to my mother for pointing them out for me.

i don't think my niece was too happy when i gave her a few bags of max' goodies to bring back home before she could even said hi to me.  i'm pretty sure i couldn't fit a single needle more in my mom's or my suitcases by the time we're leaving back home.

for a person who doesn't actually scrap that much, i think i'm quite a scrapshopaholic.  my mom said that i have more than enough knickknacks.  she has no idea!
