We've been busy hunting for Pokemon lately, so I've not been crafting so much as buying when I'm out hunting! Yes, I've unsurprisingly joined in, as I've been a fan and a collector of Pokemon and Pokemon Cards since I was a child. I live in a small town in Somerset, but not so rare that I haven't been able to catch some good ones! Still on the hunt for an elusive Squirtle however.
We've been frequenting cafes so much we were starting to get sick of them, so decided to go to the park instead - which conviently has around 5 Pokestops (where you can get free balls to throw at Pokemon). We packed a full picnic and headed over with W, who absolutely loved it - in fact she loved it so much she learnt to free stand right then and there! I was so proud of her. She's not walking yet but she's getting there.
While I haven't been crafting (as much!) I have been buying, picking up the lastest DoCrafts issue for 2.99 in The Range, saving 2.00! Free gifts included were a set of Forever Friends Opulent stamps and 4" x 4" papers. I also have a new gullotine, more black paper (as every card magazine seems to use it) and a corner punch, which is a pretty wonderful invention.
I discovered the Kaisercraft Boho Dreams range and purchased the papers and collectables, which I would definitely purchase again. I had a lovely morning this morning sticking papers together, choosing to go "free form" as I'm calling it, having no direction whatsoever and just seeing what would happen. They're my favourite cards so far, so I'll be using this method a lot more often.
Until next time, V x
