NEC craft show

Yesterday i went to the NEC craft show, had a great day. I went with my hubby, mom and dad as always, but it didn't seem as busy as years gone by and not as many stalls, but i still managed to spend my money.

here's what i brought, 8 stamps from LOTV, 2 packs of brads, the whole build a blossom kit from La pashe (including tools) set of 12 lnk pads, 5 promakers and 2 packs of paper. I think i did well, and all that's to do is play with them.

and that's what i'm off to do now.
