That is a really great deal Marie!!! Let us know how it works!

Don't you just love that $1 Studio G stuff?!? I could buy it all, & it looks like you almost did!! LOL!

Wow Marie wish I was with you shopping till you dropped! Fun fun fun

I bet you'll create some great LO's - and lots of them with that haul, Marie! Great price on the grand calibur!

Tarah - A few pointers I can think of off the top of my head for matching up colors is:

Start with your pp that you chose for your pics. Use the colors in your pp to chose cs, ribbon, buttons, flowers etc. They can be the same shade or a lighter or darker variation.

Keep pastels, brights and regals separate from each other as they tend to clash when put together.

If you are having a hard time getting another color or two added to the project, go with neutrals!

The names went into a cup....



The prize looks like....



And Aesyln, my great niece drew ---

Jessica for doing Helen's Challenge!!!


Congrats, it is going in the mail today!!!

Thank -you for to all the ladies who posted NSD activities.

From the posts, I think maybe Marie is the BIG WINNER but she had to pay for her own prizes.

Linda!!

Jessica!

WTG Jessica!


I definitely got lots of great deals and am very happy with my new stash. Yesterday I dropped off all of Tams prezzies that I picked up for her so she has lots of new stuff to.

Marie - I love your idea of a shopping trip! Mine is 2 items! LOL!

Ladies - I keep showing dh the purchases and die cut lists and saying - "see I don't have much at all". LOL!

I agree with Lisa! That's my idea of shopping, and I'd have a ball organizing all of it too!

As it is, I'm very happy with this stash I just won. I'll be watching for the mail lady!

Came today! Thanks, Linda! And yes, I'll use the 8 1/2 x 11 paper... I often do LO's that size and like that size for making cards.

PS - cute crocheted flowers! I love them!

AWESOME!!! Have fun!
