:: Scrapbook and Paper Craft Fair ::

A few weekends ago I went to a scrapbook and paper craft fair with my Mum and two of my sisters. The fair started around 9am, so we decided to arrive around 8:30am because from past experiences we knew the line up could be quite big! When we arrived the line up was huge! There was probably already 150-200 people there before us! And boy oh boy, some lovely little old ladies can be quite vicious when it comes to scrapbooking! The elbows were out in full force!

Okay, not really, but there was some surprising pushing and shoving ... all for some stamps and glitter glue! Never get in the way of a lady and her craft, haha. Our main objective was to find my sister some stuff to use in the album/journal she is making her little one. And, obviously, I couldn't resist buying myself some stuff ...

I am in love with my new washi tape. My washi tape addiction is seriously getting out of hand, but it's just so versatile! I can't wait to show you the washi tape thank you notes I made for my sister's Baby Shower and my future sister-in-law's Kitchen Tea. They're so cute and seriously so simple.

PS. For those of you who are wondering the outcome of all my tests a little while ago - my surgery is booked for the 6th of August. I have to have part of my small intestine removed. I will be in hospital for anywhere from three days to a week, depending on my recovery. From there I won't be able to drive for at least a month, I won't be able to do anything strenuous for another six weeks (no gym etc), and it will take around three months to be able to start eating normally again. But I'm actually really excited about the surgery, because I'm looking forward to not feeling sick all the time!
