I treated myself today to a trip up to Skipton to visit Jill and Ian in their stamp shop,
The Stamp Man :) It's a beautiful drive up there through the hills, especially as it is still so green yet with hints of autumn. I saw the occasional tree with deep red leaves, yellow and orange but not one of them was in a convenient place to stop and take a photo...typical!
I hadn't been to the new shop so it was a real treat to see the new space full of yummy stamp supplies, collect my
fairy stamps, have a sneak preview at what's in the offing (my lips are sealed but there's great stuff on it's way) and catch up with Jill and Ian, who I usually only see now at Port Sunlight. Oh, and I saw Jill's
weeny suitcase, which has a gorgeous accordion fold card/book inside, so of course I now have my own weeny suitcase!!!
I did take a picture of my stash but it appears to have got very late all of a sudden and I'm not sure my brain will cope with downloading more pics. So I'll leave you with the card I made with my new stamps.
Not that these are the only stamps I got today you understand. I got more bits off Jill, then stopped off at Paddy's on the way home (it's on the way, honest!) and we planned my demo project for Port Sunlight.
If you've not already done so, take a pic of your workspace for our
'Where Women REALLY Create' challenge (you can take a pic of the tiniest smidgen if you like, but you'll make us all feel better if you show at least the table). I'm going to put blog candy up for this so watch this space!!
A big HAPPY BIRTHDAY to
Julie, it's her birthday today, well, it was when I started writing this post, and still is in the old US of A!!!
