A few days before we left we had Christmas with husby's family. My SIL gave me an awesome Martha Stewart border punch. When I found out how cheap it was, I begged husby to take me to Michael's craft store to see what else they had. He complied (happy wife happy life) and we went to crafters paradise, and bought me some goodies. Luckily for me there were some sales on too! I got 6 tubs of brads, some gem stickers, 4 border punches & a handheld punch all for $90. I couldn't get over how cheap everything was. It took everything in me to not start throwing it all into my basket and buy it all and bring it home!!
So I have gone from having NO punches to 6 and I'm super dooper excited to use them!
I'm also super dooper excited to get stuck back into my crafts because I have missed it so much. And I'm also thinking of starting up my own online store in the New Year, either Etsy or Madeit. Just looking into the pros and cons of each. If you have stores through them I'd love to hear feedback from you.
I'll have to upload pics of my punches soon... I just don't have the energy right now. I still have SO MUCH unpacking and organising to do. Thank goodness all my Christmas shopping is done!!
Happy weekend and crafting!

Wow...I can't imagine the flight.
I bet Michael's would ship, wouldn't they?
Geez I'm slack, I still haven't done another post since I've been home to show off my punches.. sorry!
And Michael's only ships to the USA and Canada. They're selfish like that :P
WEll on your question of Madeit or Etsy - I had both to begin with. But I bowed out of Etsy and just do Madeit now - can't really say why, I guess just being Australian and smaller than Etsy it's easier to get discovered. It's a great site. Good luck ! and Merry Christmas. Used some of your cards and ribbon the other day from the giveaway I won, thanks again !
