UPDATES & UPCOMING SHARES....

Hi Everyone, the ribbon is in transit via UPS and I am hoping to get it all in the mail within 72 hours of receiving it.... Thanks to everyone who participated- you will not be dissappointed.

As well, I am proposing a new share. It is for the Prima Chip board letter sets shown above: you will get a full set of each in the cute alterable container... the cost is $25 for one of each set.... the ones above are: brown sugar, raisin and spearmint.... CUTE! CUTE! CUTE!

Next, there will be a Big Box of Blooms share... again, you will get all 3 varieties in the boxes for $25. (this is Canadian :)

Next, is the Isabelle's secret share. For $32 you will get 3bras and 3 pairs of panties.. see the pictures above. My LSS retails these ones for 7.50 a pack and then of course taxes on top of that..... you are saving quite a bit... plus I have only seen these at one store.... and I shop around.


Essentials 2 are beautiful large flowers.... for $32 you get a full box of each one or for $18 you get a half box of each one..... (this is the inset with the four rectangle boxes... they are gorgeous!)

Lastly, will be the accents share. these are the tins with all the little bits and pieces. there are over 175 items in each tin including brads, rhinestones, buttons, flowers and ricrac. these will be 3 tins for $36 and they will be the top 3 diagonally or the bottom 3. I will allow you to choose on a first come first serve basis... but really you cannot go wrong.

Email me with any questions... stampsnspice@shaw.ca

Sorry all the pics are together... I have not figured out how to move them, so if anyone knows, please advise me... :)
Please contact me with any questions.....

Addicta-Bella! (thanks, Steph)

My dear friend, Stephanie
has turned me into a Bella addict.
So, here is the birthday card I made for my
good friend, Marcia. Happy Birthday,
Marica and thanks, Steph :)

Yes, I Have Issues..

I went to my LSS today and they had 75% off on May Arts, Maya Road and other delicious ribbon. Well, I have issues so I could not resist and bought this pile of luscious lengths. Now, I may have to use some and not just hoard it..... PS they had the bras and panties from Prima and they are sooo cute that I am thinking of doing a bulk buy of them. You do not get a ton, but they are a good size and come in polka dots, lace, french script.... and well, you can never have enough primas or ribbon. if you think you may be interested in joining, email me jangeoman@shaw.ca

UHU... I love you!

So, I finally used my UHU glue runner that Maria at UHU sent me to try. If you are a blogger, you can email her for a sample. You just have to write a review once you use it. I have to say, I was very impressed with this glue runner. I go through oodles of glue runners and this is one of the best ones I have found yet. It did not get caught, break or get twisted like some of the much more costly competitors. It rolled on smoothly and evenly and held in place very well. This glue runner gets 2 thumbs up from me. Thanks again, Maria. I will definitely be buying this product again!
