Black Friday. Coupons. Sales. Why don't they just tell a drug addict that there is free drugs on every corner. How can you resit? How can you not go. You can't. So I went. Yep. Out to Michael's last night after a very wonderful Thanksgiving dinner prepared entirely by the Hubby! They say, after you eat you should go out for a walk. Does that including walking with a shopping cart? I think it does. So off I went... at 6:30pm on Thanksgiving. With the 30% off coupon in my hand and a smile on my face.
I will confess, owning the silhouette makes your selections a little different. I didn't buy any pattern paper. Because I'm not sure how the cuts will look on pattern. I did buy 100 sheets of black card stock which I use ALL the time, on just about every page. I bought white card stock, cause I'll be using that with the silhouette especially once I learn how to print and cut. I bought 4 bottle of glue, I was down to my last one. And, here comes the addiction... ribbon. OMG. It was 60% off, and then you got another 30% off of the 60% price. The wall was lined with colors and patterns, like a candy counter with zero calories! I could not pass it up. 5 spools later I was done.
The rush was great! The hangover to put it away... always a challenge.
I did pick up a couple of sticker sheets. An incentive to learn how to do the print / cut feature on my new friend- "Miss Silhouette Cameo".
I'll see if I can scan them in. Copy them over, print them out and cut them. Sounds complicated, but I hear it's easy.
What I didn't do yesterday was work on my projects as much as I had hoped. I finished one. But then ended up cleaning, napping, Watching three episodes of "Dexter", eating, workout and shopping. I guess that is a full day too.
And today I have off. Another day to live in the crayon box of a scraproom and create. I won't have to worry about cooking, since I'm never eating again.
