Archivers!

Little did I know that where I go to do some of my shopping across the river, that just a little itty bit further north on the freeway sits an ARCHIVERS!

I cannot even begin to tell you how exciting it was to be surrounded by scrapbooking materials again. Manufacturers I recognized, old standbys, new stuff.... I wanted to fall to my knees and cry.

I bought some of the new Bazzil dotted cardstock. How could they have come out with something so perfect after me leaving Arizona? What a tease it was to keep seeing it used on layouts online. But now I have some...which I'm sure I'll hoard and hyperventilate before making that first cut. You know the feeling.

I loved seeing all of the new stuff that I have seen online since moving. New KI lace cardstock, the plastic looking scalloped papers, everything. I was in my element. It was goooooood.

Now I am armed with some new adhesive, and a bit of new paper to keep me happy. So I guess this means you'll have to ignore my last post of being scrappy frustrated.

It is beginning to snow, which also gives me the perfect excuse for not leaving the house so maybe I'll get to play around a little today. :)

On a side note, I saw on CNN this morning that there are 19 days left in the year. That seems so hard to believe. As happy as I am to bid farewell to this past year, it still shocks me when I realize that another one has gone by.
