It's a Party

It's party time over on the High Hopes Challenge blog, perfect timing to use A Party Donkey. The papers are the My Mind's Eye Penny Lane stack, as you can see I'm having a purple and green moment. MS zigzag punch had another outing and a couple of corners, finished off with a bit of ribbon, job done.
So did I manage to resist buying anything at the Glitter Pot of course not. I did buy some essentials, like some more white fun flock and white flower soft ready for Christmas, some foam blending pads, paper stumps. Now what wasn't on my essential list, embossed leaf punch, flower punch, sentiment stamps (but these were only £4.99 for loads of sentiments) a Tim Holtz alterations and you can't go to the Glitter Pot without at least one Penny Black falling into you basket.
Spent quite a bit of time chatting with Francoise and Jenny, we've known then for years so its like chatting to old friends.
It seems though that the Glitter Pot is hoping to move to bigger premises but we couldn't force them to tell us where cos its not all signed and sealed but I needed to know to see how it will work when we go on our West Sussex craft trip. At the moment we can drive down the M25 to The Craft Barn, Lingfield, 40 minutes from there is The Glitter Pot, Scaynes Hill, then another 40 minutes to Crafts U Love, Charlwood and then its another 40 minutes to my house, so an alteration to our journey might mean less time to visit all.
