My paper fetish arrives in droves of boxes on my door step…

yes.   I admit it.   I love paper designs.  Almost so that it pains me from cutting any of it as just looking at the patterns themselves making me jump with glee.   So put paper on the list of my things that I adore along with small sized things, boxes, containers, and cute kitties.   I’m sure there’s more on my list, but I’ll save that for another post.

Besides my paper packages I got today, I also got a few other things.   Some brads, stamps, and buttons that go well with the paper designs.  Actually, i don’t remember buying the buttons on ebay but maybe the lady was very happy that I bought so much paper that she threw it in.  Maybe no one else was buying them and decided that my house needed them more than hers.   I don’t mind buttons.  i am a button whore as well. ;D

After being overwhelmed by my stack of packages today, I decided to do another layout of my wedding album.  I am almost done actually which freaks me out because I thought I would slaving away and perfecting it.  Maybe it’s because the design is so simple and clean plus that the design is pretty set in how it goes that it does go pretty fast.

The layout didn’t go as I thought it would when i ordered the prints, but this seems like a good fit.  I pondered putting the best man and lady’s name on it but thought that maybe I’ll write them in or do some journaling on each page as well to stick into the album.

I also finally took pictures of the bottle cap necklaces i made.   I saw a few bottle cap necklaces on etsy.   Different than how I did it.

With all this jewelry making, I’m thinking of getting a crimper.  Not sure which one to get though.  Anyone in blogland got suggestions?
