A day of scrapbook-i-ness

I had a great time today!  Hanging out with my ma, looking at various crafty eye candy, and shopping.  Who can not like shopping?  Well, maybe the next day if it was overdone, but still fun.

Ma drove herself up to the house early in the morning and we all went out to grab some breakfast.   We went to Gilbert’s Deli in downtown Bellevue.  Always good food and always too much.

Jeff then dropped us off at the Meydenbauer Center where there was long long lines to get into the vendor faire.  It was quite funny how long it was because after we got our tickets to go in, the line was already gone.

We walked all the whole faire and gazed at all the new scrapbooking paper, embellishments, and tools like this glue tape gun.  We tried it after the lady showed us how ease it is to remove the carteridge as well as place it in backwards to cover the tape end while traveling.  Very handy!  So we both got one.

We also found this awesome booth / group called Cocoa Daisy.  I think I saw there stuff before and its basically a kit company where they bundle stuff together to do scrapbooking and have a new kit every month.  I ended up signing up for their subscription.  There kits had awesome stuff like 7Gypies, Jenni Bowlin, Basic Grey, etc.  All companies that I dig.

After this booth, we found good $1 bargains as well as the booth is what I all “Basic Grey” booth where they have all new Basic Grey lines.  Wonderful paper goodness. Everywhere in the faire had awesome scrapbooking products, but we soon got through the whole faire and was tired.  So we left to go home and upgrade Ma’s mac to OS X 10.6.

While the computer was installing 10.6, we popped over to the Value Village in Redmond where there is always awesome findings, but only lasted so long as we missed lunch.  So we picked up a pizza on the way home and called it a day.

Was that enough craftiness for the day?  Sure, but I did get in a bit of actually using crafts and created the front to one of my albums.  Finally.  With my newly bought stuff too! 

Now I am tired and so am sleeping in tomorrow.
