Wishy-washy...

...where, oh where are my wishes?! I've wished for SO many things since CHA (bad, enabling CHA!) and it has led to the accumulation of more things for me in the past week or so!

I thought it would be fun to look back at my earlier wish-lists when I first started papercrafting to see how far I've come...(or how broke I've gotten, whichever way you choose to look at it!)

My Wishlist #1
More cartridges - Paper Doll, Stretch, Alphalicious and Fabulous Finds and Doodle Charm being at the top - but really, I would say ALL of them
Nestabilities - Scalloped circles - both sizes, but again, I would say ALL of them
Cricut Expressions - I put this third on the list considering I haven't even gotten my Baby Bug yet...I thought I would give it a fair chance before I start lusting after the E...
More Stickles - when they come in lots of different colours, well...then I want them ALL!
More Cuttlebug embossing folders - because you just need them ALL!
ATG - haven't gotten the fever for this yet, but I know it's only a matter of time...
Design Studio - from what I've heard so far, it sounds a bit intimidating, but I shall CONQUER it...once I get it...
STAMPS! - Penny Black, Stampendous, House Mouse and basically ALL those cute little stamps everyone seems to have! But I could always use more!
Secret Sister - Lurking the secret brother/sister boards is like how people can't get enough of reality shows. I love looking through and looking at all the fabulous things everyone is getting. I haven't signed up yet because I want to make absolutely sure I'll be able to devote 100% to it, but everyone is just so great.
Random stuff - so I can be ready for a secret sister and also so I can start doing some RAKs!

Wishlist #2
More carts - Walk in my Garden (is that what it's called?)
Nestabilities - mostly the small and large scalloped circles
Cricut Design Studio
Cricut Expressions
Radiant Rain (or distress inks and perfect pearls to make my own) Unnecessary
Distress Inks
Perfect Pearls
Twinkling H20's
Mini Misters
MORE stamps (I think I've been able to acquire quite a few Studio G stamps and some House Mouse - but you can never have enough stamps!)
MORE paper (different textures - I think Bazzill is quite popular?)
More random things like stickers and embellies, etc. for RAKs (I must learn to not want to keep them all the time!)

*LOL* Well, it looks like I"m doing a pretty good job on getting things crossed off my checklist! Obviously there are things there that I didn't really have to scratch off, because, I mean...when do you REALLY have enough stamps? NEVER! Same goes for paper and fun little embellies! And now, especially after seeing the new releases at CHA, my list of course has gotten longer even though I've managed to cross a few things off! It's a bitter, never-ending cycle - only bitter because I have no money! HAHAHAHA...

But besides buying things and getting a little bit of crafting in, here's a little progress on my scraproom overhaul:



Ooooh!!! Doesn't it look so PRETTY!!! I feel just as contrary as Mary with all my Stickles all in a row!

The top shelf is my little mason jars full of embellies from the dollar store. Second and third rows are all my glitter-anythings...Stickles, Martha's, Studio G's...so PRETTY! The other rows are my acrylic dabbers, distress inks and powders, crackle paints, and Studio G ink pads - all from Marti over at Pez-a-Doodle Designs!

Starlight, starbright...

...very first star I see tonight. I wish I may, I wish I might, grant me the wish I wish tonight!

Well, there aren't any stars out yet, but hopefully it doesn't stop my wish from coming true one day!

I keep checking Katie's site (http://katiespaperhaven.blogspot.com/) and I am wanting Nestabilities in the WORST way. It's one of those things that when you get an idea in your head that you WANT it, it keeps festering and festering until you MUST HAVE IT! I'm actually surprised that I've held out this long (it probably has something to do with the fact that I think they're kind of pricey) but Katie's cards are so CUTE that every time I see those sweet scalloped edges, I WANT Nestabilities all over again!

*breathes*

Maybe it's time I started price comparing...

Is Nestabilities the only thing on my original wish-list that I still don't have? I think I've pretty much managed to acquire everything else! LOL...

Wish List #2

...I wish I may, I wish I might
order all of these things tonight!

Hahaha, actually no, I won't be ordering anything tonight - hopefully I'll be kept too busy to have any time to mosey on over to any sights to see what else I would like to have!

But it never hurts to have a wish list!

My Brand New Wishlist

  1. More carts - Walk in my Garden (is that what it's called?)
  2. Nestabilities - mostly the small and large scalloped circles
  3. Cricut Design Studio
  4. Cricut Expressions
  5. Radiant Rain (or distress inks and perfect pearls to make my own)
  6. Distress Inks
  7. Perfect Pearls
  8. Twinkling H20's
  9. Mini Misters
  10. MORE stamps (I think I've been able to acquire quite a few Studio G stamps and some House Mouse - but you can never have enough stamps!)
  11. MORE paper (different textures - I think Bazzill is quite popular?)
  12. More random things like stickers and embellies, etc. for RAKs (I must learn to not want to keep them all the time!)
So there's a few things off the top of my head. I think I would even put Design Studio at the top as I've been seeing some fabulous things being done. And I think being able to modify things on the carts I already own might keep me satisfied enough to delay my cart purchases so I don't go completely broke really soon!

Here's crossing my fingers in the hopes of getting some things in the mail today!
