Gorjuss Craft Haul



So I went shopping 2 weekends ago with my friend Ber and we happened to wander into the Art & Hobby shop.
I had been looking at the new Docrafts Gorjuss range online and wanted to pick up a few bits. I absolutely LOVE Gorjuss stuff but I wanted to have a look at it in reality and touch it and make my choices so off we went into the Art & Hobby shop and this is what I ended up purchasing.

I actually ended up getting a few more bits than planned (isn't that always the way? ;-})

First thing I picked up was this gorgeous stamp set. There are 4 different types in the collection but I had limited myself to one (having said that I may end up getting some more of these in the future ;-})

I got this one which is called "I Gave You My Heart". How pretty is she?
 The next thing I picked up was this paper pack. They're 6x6 papers and there's 32 sheets in the pack, 2 sheets of each design. I need paper like a hole in the head, but there you go!
I absolutely LOVE the packaging on these because it's reusable. On the inside of the packaging you get printed toppers.
I also wanted to pick up the March/April "Creativity" Mag because it came with free Gorjuss buttons plus the mag is really good and such a bargain at €3.50.
Seeing as most craft mags these days are nearly €8 I love that they've managed to keep this one at a good price and that they nearly always give a great free gift. 
I was in my local Easons recently and spotted last months "Creativity" mag priced in there at €7 ;-o
It was exactly the same as the one that I had purchased in A&H earlier in the month with the same free stamps. The only difference was that it was in a plastic bag. So DO NOT buy it in Easons!
Another thing that was on my list of must buys was this gorgeous Owl stamp! 
It's the only thing I bought that wasn't part of the Gorjuss collection and I was keeping my fingers firmly crossed that they would have it.
So that was the end of what was on my list of stuff to purchase but somehow these other bits fell into my basket as well!
This 12 pk of A6 cards and envelopes. There are 6 designs (2 of each) and OMG the envelopes are SO cute. The inside of the packaging also has toppers like the paper pack!
And seriously how gorjuss are these brads and little pack of mini notelets?
I couldn't leave them behind {blush}
That's IT! 
I think I did pretty well. I LOVE everything I got and now that I have them photographed and up on the blog I can't wait to use them. I have SO many ideas buzzing around in my head. I'll be sure to share what I make with them, so keep an eye out for that. 

Oh and we also went into Boots so I'll share what I got there over the next few days! (I just need to take pics)
Seriously if you can get yourself into Boots over the next week or so DO. 
They have a 3 for 2 mix and match across ALL the lines of cosmetics and haircare, so it really is worth a visit to stock up (like I did) or to try out new things.

Until next time
