Findings, hauls and peeks

This will be a long post with tons of haul photos about this. So, if you are not a 'photo-person', uhm... you may not like this post

Start off with great findings in my grandma's house last week,ALL so vintage, so old, so rugged, tattered... me likey. The little red book is my grandpa's old driving license book with his photo in it, Wow. If only my grandparents own a typewriter...

Here's the haul now:
After many terrible out-of-control haul experiences, I know I have to list down items that I want before freaking out in a scrapbook store and ended up forgetting things that I was supposed to geta long list of stores to visit and some items I hope still available in stores

These weren't in my list, but they must be brought homeTombow with a lowwwwww price, FINALLY FOUND SMALL TAGS!!!! *lucky me*, and mamamia delicious colors of highlighters, yes, they are highlighters from Japan, darn those Japanese came up with haul-able(a new term) things
I got them in Popular bookstore -- Causeway Point, Woodlands (Singapore). those tags are hidden only in specific popular stores.

First Singapore LSS to aim*ALARM* scrapbooking supplies are all 40% off

The little blue luggage was for free when spent over $80 :D
Been waiting for the Corner Chomper for yearrrrrrrssssssss, finally got it!
I love the FOC package 12'' by 12'', with 3 papers inside



Snatched the ONE FINAL BOTTLE of Lemonade Huey that I've been searching*bravo + fireworks*

Punches are buy one free one... whoooop, goes my hands with the Martha Stewart onesThe Hambly washi tapes are killing me, these are really expensive though, and it comes in lesser yards as compared to the japanese ones:( not worth it. The blue Mark's tapes are nice
Gotten some Hambly since there is a 40% discount, these are beeeeeeeautiful! I saw one of AmyTan's mini book with the yellow lattice and I knew I have to get them, the camera is UGGGHHHH so stunning, not to mention woodgrain, come on... it's woodgrain alright!

EchoPark's Style Essential with the Houndstooth design, bitten by the Houndstooth bug...

I've gotten the amazing.....
from American Crafts.. you really need to see them in person, they look different from digital photos..
.

I hope some of these could persuade you, haha... and the Remarks sticker book is a good deal!!! for only RM8 (USD$2.70) WOW! normally I get to see them with a price of RM24 or more...


This is one of the freebies, not sure how to use it, my friend YINGyING is a "blinger" (you know people who are crazy about blingy stuffs?), so I'm gonna let her add to her bling stash

I don't have any photos of the other LSS that I went to, but it is exactly in the same mall but different floor with PaperMarket, Made With Love <--- website linked
I had purchased more than 8 items so I got the 40% discount again!!!
Thickers :) Twines:) Stickers:)
I am in love with Crate now, very. The Ski Lodge paper just took my heart away...sigh...and I've gotten two of the papers,one more left in store for a lucky one :)Some twines with colours that I don't have...love the airmail and christmas one!

I'm so thankful to Juanna :D who lent me her membership card,and so I was able to enjoy the great deals in both of the stores.. Thanks Juanna, i love you *blush*... and oh dear... she gave me this... :O
I LOVE YOU

Stayed up very late on Tuesday to get 2 layouts done:)


AND OH BOY!!! I ORDERED A LONG LIST OF STUFFS FROM SC!!!!

My 1st Studio Calico haul

= this is a long post, full of photos, time consuming =

I'm just too happy and I couldn't contain myself, so I ended up at my blog for this post. shoot me please.
I should not be here right now as my bloody finals is in a week's time
okay, just for once... I really need to share this.

I made my first purchase from Studio Calico quite some time ago and the box has finally arrived! GOOD! ----> www.studiocalico.com
The great thing about purchasing from the Studio Calico shop is that it's a flat rate shipping of $17.50 to anywhere outside of US! So if you add and add and add and add and add and add (dizzy words~)products to your cart, it's still $17.50 for shipping, but you are limited to get max 3 main kits in a box.
I was super excited but something horrible happened

the orange Zing embossing powder bottle cracked and BOOM! the powder flown everywhere inside and OUTSIDE of the box, even thru the plastic sheets of my other products.
What a terrific orange party
I spent more than half an hour cleaning up everything, and boy it was difficult for me as the powder is so fine
I got rid of the box and place them to the other SC box for some photo shooting, woots~
Best haul ever (at this moment) as I got SUPER CHEAP STUFFS from the Last Call section in the shop last month. But still dissapointed that I didnt get the grab bags and other add on kits :(

QUICK ZOOM
The broken bottle incident has given me a powder phobia now and it's bad news cause I got 8 bottles in my box. I scooped the leftover orang Zing into my container
I got the ZAP! heat tool and Zig embossing pen, and I dont really know how to use them
The products that I love the most are theseI couldn't wait so I tried spraying on small square cardstocks and make color charts (with Glimmer Mists too) :)COLOUR CHART
Stickers are my friends (this seems scary) since I was.. i dunno when [Left to right] Chipboard alpha tan ($3.50, no sale), 2 Blue Chipboard alpha ($0.50 <---WHAT?!!!!, on sale), Grenn Yellow Pink addy alpha ($1.25 no way, on sale), 3 Die cut stickers ( cant recall, on sale). I've gotten everything I wanted!
Be prepared for this deal. FISKARS everywhere punch RM85 (retail price in Malaysia), but I got for RM18, please don't be sad. Sew easy $1.25?? (on sale)
Tags ( no sale) and Journaling cards ($0.15, so cheap, on sale)
A display of all add ons I get from the sale, not the sale and a contest prize. I didn't realise I have so many.
The old Studio Calico pp add on in one of the off season kits. 4 papers,2 of each design, only $0.70 i think? (on sale)
This is from the Mind the Gap kit. (on sale)
Cardstocks please (no sale).

WHITE
Fieldguide add on pp (no sale)
GLEE CLUB kit! (prize) spot the to-die-for WOODGRAIN thickers?
Some Countryside pp, all stained by my Zing powder :( FRONT:love the cow, bamboos and yellow triangles

Some ads, great to use on mini albums as they are acid free too,good!
That's all

NOT TO WORRY because Studio Calico has great customer service, all damaged products will be either refunded or replaced, mine is settled :D

Something to share, i got what they call Twills (cotton tape) in manyyyyyyyyyyyy colors from a local store long time ago, love the colors
