let's get rid of the stinky spammer posts!

have you purchased anything new and exciting lately, or see anything in the shop that you can't wait to get your hands on?

for me...well i am always purchasing lol.  the best thing lately was the 49 & Market mystery box.  hands-down best mystery box i've ever received!  there was literally only one thing in the box i wasn't interested in, and it already has a new home.  

this new order-holding policy has been lethal for my pocketbook  seems like i no sooner get one box then i receive a shipping notice for the next one!

I recently purchased the Picket Fence Gold Splatter and plan to use it for my Christmas cards.  I'll be playing with it in a bit.  Also, the bead sets for making jewelry.  They are so cute and worth the purchase.  I'm scouting through the store right now looking for something to buy!  LOL!  I have a crop coming up in 2 weeks and I think I NEED some new papers to take along!

let me know how the gold splatter is.  i saw it and am intrigued!  i mean, i only have like 3 spare bottles of heidi swapp gold color shine and am trying desperately to finish my jen hadfield gold glitter spray, but i might need a new gold ink in about 10 years 

There's so MUCH goodness here! I REALLY want the Possibilitarian (sp?) stamps and stencils set from Sizzix!

i really like that set too...only i know i would never use it lol and it's kinda spendy for something that sits on a shelf eh?

I haven't purchased much of anything lately.  I'm trying to hold out for Black Friday here at ACOT!

That probably wasn't the best plan because it seems I've missed out on most of the Doodlebug "Hey Pumpkin" goodies. 

But, I am looking forward to these:

Echo Park Cool Wood Grains Collection


Holly Jolly Holiday Alphabet Thickers

 

I just bought a planner die from Elizabeth Craft Designs. (I'm making an October Planner.) & I broke down and used some of my GC's. Those dies are so addictive! ...I'm getting impatient waiting for my order!
I just added the gold glitter to my wishlist!! I'm on my last bottle of Heidi Swapp.

I haven't used it yet, but opened it.  I was surprised to see that it's actually a glass dropper?  Not sure how that's going to work.  I may be putting it into a spritz bottle.  However, the gold color is amazing.


 

I'm  involved in 3 separate Christmas  swaps, so I have taken advantage of the sales and promotions.  I really love the new shipping tiers, and I collect the maximum cherries daily.  It really helps. 

I'm  going to wait until after Christmas and then purchase my wishlist.  Hoping they have a good after Christmas/New Year's sale.

I so wish I had gotten in on the 49 and Market mystery box.  I was trying to behave.  Behaving isn't fun!  I recently bought the rainbow colored Waffle Flower blender brushes.  They were half price so I couldn't resist.  Other than that, I haven't purchased much. 

I just did a "teeny" order using my points and GCs and ended up only paying $4 lol. I ordered PHotoplay's Gamer collection as well as the sticker sheet and solids paper pack from Bella Blvd's Teen Vibe Carson line. These will be great to scrap DD's Halloween pics from the past 2 years - she went as Mario and Luigi with one friend last year and as Mordecai and Rigby (from The Regular Show and they play video games and I made some "joysticks" for their costumes) last year. Plus I have tons of pics over the years of both my kids gaming. It's already been shipped so now I have to actually order those pictures LOL!!

Ooh that wood paper pack looks fanastic! I ordered 3 sheets of white wood papers in my order too.  I would've held out for this...
 

Oh speaking of mystery boxes...I ordered the Echo Park mini mystery box ($75 for $35) and when it came handed it directly to DH and told him it was a Christmas gift for me. To open with DD and see what they want to do. That's the easiest Christmas shopping for him LOL!!!  And now I don't have to feel guilty about it!!!

I posted a photo of it in a previous reply in this thread.  The color is gorgeous, but I'm not sure I like the dropper idea.  But, we'll see.  I am pretty sure it's going in to a misting/spritzy bottle!!

i ordered that gold splatter a big ago.  I love the colour of the splatters,  but that dropper is useless!!!!!  I ended up just dipping my paint brush in to make splatters!

I used it on this layout.

   
 

I wish American Crafts would bring back the gold color shine. It would be a huge big seller since so many of us love it and are getting down to our last bottle. I've tried other brands and nothing compares!! 

I purchase the recommended items from the fabulous cherries to do embroidery on my cards and layouts.  I know it's shipped so...excited.

I also have all the new Doodlebug in my wishlist...lol.  Might be buying for a gift under the xmas tree.
