Stampendous stamp ideas

You know how it is when you're sitting at the computer supposedly working but the need to browse crafty web sites takes over and you end up frittering away an hour (sometimes two!)?

I guess I can justify it by saying that I was looking for ideas on how to use some of their stamps that I stock.

Anyway I found a few that I thought you mght want to see and if you go to the Stampendous website you can see a lot more.

I've also added the links to the stamps on my website, just click on the names under each card.

Childers Craft Bazaar

I've had a few outings for Lorna Blue in the last couple of weeks.

First of all was PCYC Craft Markets on the 9th. It was a little quieter than normal but I think with so much going on for the CRUSH festival people are having to choose what they attend. After I had packed up I went down to have a look at the BRAG markets that were on until around 3pm and it was great to see local artists and crafts people set up in the gallery. Last year they held it on a different weekend than the PCYC and I had a stall which was really fun.

Next was the Bargara Home & Life Expo on teh 15th. It was a shame the weather was a bit iffy, we had showers in the morning which put off a few stall holders and some customers but overall it was a good day. It's such a shame the council can't make some more accessable parking out there because the centre itself is lovely.

Lastly I went down to Childers on the 18th for the Craft Bazaar. As always this was a great day with lots of people coming through. I had a lady next to me that makes flowers and gold fish out of coloured stockings. They are beautiful. My Aunty used to do that when I was little and I haven't seen then since. My in-laws came down and they had lunch with some friends at the Hotel next door and they were all very impressed with the quality of the meal.

I've also been receiving in some new lines so it's worth a peek at the website. Of course we're all starting to think of Christmas so more stamps will be arriving so keep an eye out for those.

Coral Coast Home & Life Expo on tomorrow

This is where I'll be tomorrow along with a lot of other stall holders. It's a great location and last year was the first year it was held so this year it will be even better.

By the way it starts at 9am not 10am as the poster states. Just in case you want to make sure you get a gift bag.

Where to find me this weekend.

This weekend I'll be out and about both Saturday and Sunday.

On Saturday I'll be in Hinkler shopping centre near Boost Juice along with Christine from Adele Collections (she has jewellery and handbags). We'll be there from 9am and we'll start packing up around 3pm.

On Sunday I'll be in my regular spot in the hall at the PCYC craft markets.

If you haven't had a chance to see any of the new lines that have come in recently this is your chance to see them "in the flesh".
