 Hi everybody thank you for watching today so this week I have got a few bits and pieces a bit random but I am waiting on some magazines so this video may be like two videos together so yeah you will see if that does arrive but I've picked up these bits I've got some ideas for some fun projects using elastic so this one here was 99p from biology now I do think there are more of these I'm sure somebody else said but um anyway so you get the four mill by five oh sorry four meters by five mill four meters by eight mill and four meters by 12 mill so yeah I thought they were quite good I like the packaging actually I like the way that they've done them and then you can just obviously take those off because they're just attached with a bit of tape and you've got them all separate like that so it's easy to store so yeah I mean it's sewing elastic by the sewing box so I don't know where that's from is I mean yeah it just says sewing box Manchester there's no website so um yeah I I think it's still a wholesale I don't think it's an actual like you know individual shop kind of thing so but again if I can find any links I will do but um yeah watch this space for those I need to play around now I've got the the elastic so um yeah it might not work hopefully it will but that's that then I've also got this assortment of elastic bands again I'm not holding out too much these again we're only I think these were 79p but I'm hoping uh yeah there are is these small ones that I want oh they're actually quite good yeah so smaller ones but there are I mean those are huge you get all sorts you get your traditional I guess more most common ones there but those it's these smaller ones but even those are different they're the right yeah it's more that size that I'm looking for so again watch this space but they will just they're just handy things to have the other ones I did have before starting to dry up you know when you pull them and it's all like literally crackled away so they weren't gonna last me at all then I just saw these these were 99p each and again it's always that craft brand they're just a huge wholesaler and a lot of people a lot of companies buy from them and just rebrand the packaging as well so yeah it's um I do see a lot of these things and I'm like it's like the works for example the works just repackage a lot of this stuff so yeah when you shop and you see as much as I do you start to think I'm see I've seen that somewhere before I'm sure I've seen that so yeah I have okay so this is what it is but the reason I liked it is it can unwind so I've actually got them all individual so they're kind of all twisted up together so imagine find the right one there we go that's the the leader I guess they should well then it goes in with that one there they are kind of it's going to take me a few minutes to oh no there we go I think that one's there we go I just had the wrong one but I just thought they looked really nice to put on gift bags and have behind you know little sentiments and bits and pieces like that I mean I won't need all the wire on them so I will end up trimming that but if you imagine that behind I mean then the nice thing is because they're on wire I can shape them they only had these two colors so I've got that's almost like a a gun metal I've got a slight greeny tinge to it and then those ones there which are kind of that kind of almost this yeah it's like a platinum yellowy kind of color that even is a color but you know what I mean but again I'm gonna yeah just untwist them all I don't like them as one one thing it's not really my style I prefer them a bit smaller and then yeah plus I get more for my money so 99p I thought they were actually really quite sweet you can see that one there as well so yeah I've got all of those and then I've got these I've just taken them out of packaging so it always creates a glare but they're just black faceted but they're a really nice size you can see there and yeah I just thought I like them so I got those ones then I picked up these I've got two packs again I think these were 79p that one's moved let's stick that one there and the little dome kind of letters they look like the old typewriter keys you know on the tops or like an old cash register kind of effect and they're just sort of realized I like that they're a bit smaller so I've got two packs so you've always got enough of all the letters there then I picked up these now I know they're glitter but the difference with these is they are thick and they're more it says here glitter flakes but the main one I got was this white one because I'm going to be using this for a lot of my Christmas projects because it looks just like snow so if I just get it out there you can see it's much much thicker and yeah I just thought it was going to work great I'm going to just tip that there because it's going to get an MS on here I know it is but they were one pound so I got that in the white it says here it's called Brian Clegg Glitter Flake 60 grams again this is all from biology but the the silver ones are really really thick they're going to look great in shaker cards because it's a yeah it's nice to mix that all together so that's more for my Christmas project you can see they've got it everywhere and then I went to Lidl now again I don't know I know Lidl is in a lot of European countries but I don't know if it's in the likes of Australia or in the States and Canada I don't know so this is by Crelando Crelando I think it's Crelando and yeah it's the Lidl brand but I think you can purchase it I'm sure I've seen it on Amazon so whenever they do their paper packs I always grab them because they're always really good quality so this is the 135 gsm paper so this is the drawing pad and it's all um a three size yeah it must be a three so this is perfect for mats and layers but the colors are lovely and you get one two two of each color so you've got your black and you've got a couple of brown tones there you can see you've got a real nice kind of mix and you've got a really light cream and white you've got some grays lighter grays and you go into your greens really nice colors and then that brings you into these nice blues reds pink purple another pinky color and then finishing with your oranges yellows and again that cream so I got one of the paper and then I got three of the cardstock the cardstock's 270 gsm and I've had a lot of these over the years they are always really really good quality they don't crack you get a nice piece of grayboard on the back as well so you can always use that and again this one here you already get one of each so that's why I've got three packs and I've got three of each and I can cut them in half if I need to but they make you know it's great that they're this size so you can make bigger gift bags and stuff you've got browns creams whites like I said one of each color they're so nice slight few different kind of shades to the paper one that I showed you it's pretty similar but yeah three of them so I've got sort of 75 sheets of really nice cardstock for they're three it was two for three pound so I got yeah those two and those two so yeah 100 sheets of you know really nice card and paper for six pound so I thought that was bugging so yeah maybe I should have got another pack of them maybe a pack of them as well because again you see how much I craft I go through this stuff so quickly so yeah if I can find bargain card that I've already used and I know works then yeah I grab it and then I received my order from hunky dory so this is there for the lover stamps range I absolutely love it they're beautiful stamps great quality all photopolymer and I just they're just so nice to color in I use them in a lot of my cards so the ones that I picked up are all from their clearance section so I do encourage you to go over there because they have some really good bargains so I'm going to talk you through each one with the prices I paid so the most I paid was $3.99 with one two three four five of them being 99p so really really good so all of this came to $15.78 and then I had to pay $2.99 postage so I thought that was great and it came within I think two days so the first one is this one which is sent with love and you can see all of the perfume bottles really easy to color nice and easy to cut out and you've got here you never you're never fully dressed without perfume glamour never takes a day off and have a beautiful day really like those things they're super cute and that one like said was I don't know I haven't said the price so this is $2.99 then this is one of my favorite ones this was 99p this will be great for well any food lovers but more masculine style cards as well so it's a pizza and you can put all your different toppings on and there's loads of different toppings there I think it's cool you've got your pepper mushrooms olives peppers chili sorry a little shrimp or prawn tomato and then oh gosh I'm hang on I need to stamp them I think to see you got lettuce I'm not sure what that one is trying to work out anyway they definitely get used you've got your little pizza cutter a slice and then you've got your the slice of my life your supremely awesome which I think is really good and then this one is just your pizza stamp you've stolen a pizza my heart isn't that cool love that and that was 99p brilliant absolutely love them so you're going to see those featuring definitely because I've already got some ideas for that one then I picked up these these were 99p this is the essentials inserts collection this is the frames now the reason I've got these is because I've got a lot of stamps that don't have corresponding dice sentiment stamps that is and when you stamp them sometimes it's quite hard to cut them out and you don't know whether to cut a square or a rectangle so the idea is I've got two lots I've also got this one here which is the occasions and this one was also 99p so any kind of stamps that I've got I can stamp it find one of these frames that's going to fit obviously it's not going to fit every stamp I have but a lot of them it will stamp the frame and then cut around the frame which is going to be so much easier and I think neater so I've got some nice circle stamps small ones which I know will fit with that or once I've got small stamps that will fit within that circle so I can cut that I could probably get my circle punch around that one actually I love the star one all of these that are inside are separate stamps you can remove them and you've got little corners there love that big one I think that's going to come in quite handy for a few stamps that I've got because I've recently got all of those the general and the occasion sentiment stamps from dev craft and I know that there's going to be quite a few that will fit inside of these especially ones like this and that tag and I just thought they were really cool so yeah you've got the lines you've got little obviously other bits here you've got a dotted frame there there's quite a few but for 99p each I know they're going to come in handy and again they're just such great quality so that's those two then this one's another favorite this is called jam packed with love this was 199 and you get your lovely big jam jar mason jar there and then you get straw breeze and raspberries and you can stamp and fill the whole jar with them you get this mini beautiful little cute thing there and preserve you know when you go to restaurants that's what I'm trying to know stay overnight in a hotel that's it and you go down for breakfast and then you have these little jars that's what I was trying to get out and you can have these tiny little phrases inside so you've got spread the love you're so sweet with love and hugs and preserved with love isn't that cute you got your spoon and then you've got here there's only one thing sweeter than jam and then you'd open up the card and it would say you and then you've got absolutely jam packed with love just love it and on the back it also also shows you other things within the range which I already have a few of so that's that one and then this one here again love this this is 299 this is mixed vegetables so I thought this is nice again for any garden lovers any people that you may know that have their own allotment or grow their own I know lots of people that do that so this is a nice fun card for that but it's all this fun little puns that they put with it so you've got all of you know your common vegetables there but then you've got a little kind of frame there like the wooden I can't get my words out you know what that is but inside you can put tomatoes broccoli cabbage parsnips peppers beetroot carrots radishes lettuce and peas and then you've got happy birthday have an upbeat day I love you from my head tomatoes tomatoes love it these are going to make such fun cards I love can you tell I love cards with puns so um yeah and you've got more there again so that one was 299 then this was the most expensive one 399 but again I know this is going to be really handy for quite a few people I know so this is fast food fun and you have your big burger you've got your drinks there you're good why can't I think of anything what's that cup it's not is it a cup yeah I guess it is a cup you've got your fries your hot dog and then your mustard or tomato bottle there a little flag to put in the burger and then these little hearts and stars you've got your splat so that'd be good with that and then you can have that just coming out of the top of it and then you've got happy burger day birthdays are all about having it large that's such a nice that's just that's really good I haven't got that and I think you could maybe fit that no might not thought we might have gone in the the fries there maybe and then we've got we go together like burger and fries and just it's just different and again they're nice sized as well and really easy to cut out so look out for those they're going to be coloured in the near future then the last one was this one and the reason I've got it is not because it's a new home stamp which is how they've got it so this is a no place like home as soon as I saw that I thought Halloween it just screams Halloween and I'm wondering if that's why maybe it's gone into the sale because this is 99p but that looks like a haunted house maybe because it's in a silhouette style then you've got these trees that just the the naked tree you know kind of stump or branches there with no leaves on just to me again is just screaming Halloween so it's got congratulations from our home to yours and there's no place like home but I personally even the fence it just all looks scary so that's why I brought it I want to actually use this for Halloween I don't I never buy Halloween kind of specific stamps and things like that because it's not something I use a lot and it's obviously only a very very small time in the year but for the odd thing I do do I just thought for 99p these are going to be good so I'm definitely going to do something with the haunted what I'm calling the haunted house I imagine if you stamp it in like a pink or a nice light blue or something really happy then it will have a different look to it but it just I don't know even with all this it's like Ivy that they've got growing off of it it's it is sorry hunky dory that is a Halloween stamp if anybody else thinks it's not please do say but I think a lot of you agree even the way they got the birds flying around the house Halloween so and then they got the silhouette I've got that one there I don't have that one but then that's in silhouette but that doesn't look Halloween to me so it's yeah I just think that one's been I think they would have been much better packaging that as a Halloween one changing the sentiments but anyway so yeah you will see that in due course obviously it's not Halloween for a while yet but I thought I would pick that one up so yeah I've got one two three four five six seven eight I will share all the links and I do encourage you to go over because there's more stuff in their clearance as well so there's some real good bargains to be had okay so that's everything today guys not much but um yeah I always like to share it definitely try and get the card stock if you do have a little nearby and they have this in there it's always a bit random in well again if you shop in little you know what it's like it's all in kind of tubs and in long kind of lines and nothing's really ever in it's where you would think it would be like this was next to I think it was a load of biscuits or something anyway but um I will try and link anything I can find if I can find on Amazon I will this stuff I probably won't be at a link at all because it's again biology isn't none of this is on line so yeah I might struggle a little bit there so apologies because I know a lot of you do click on the links but if I can find them I will otherwise I'll be back again tomorrow with another tutorial thanks for watching see you soon bye
