So today started out incredibly atrocious. It was wet, windy, and ugly. Thomas hasn't been feeling good and Isaias was bumming around watching T.V. so I decided to take some time for myself and head to A.C. Moore. I do not go there often, in fact, I think the last time I was there was before Christmas last year. But I am a collector, if you will, of the Studio G stamps by hampton art. I call myself a collecter because I have only used about 40% of the studio g stamps I have... but they do come in handy often! I have heard that A.C. Moore has a lot more Studio G stamps than michaels. Anywho, I went online and printed out a 50% off coupon and went on my merry way.
I bought these:

I spent a total of $7.39 with the coupon. The colored pencils are actually old, but new in a sense that I haven't opened them in two and half years! I bought a large set of stamps from Hampton Arts and three sets of stamps from studio G. I didn't want to go all out because I really want to only buy what I will use. I think I am going to try to use each stamp once, now because I have so darn many! JUSTIFICATION FOR PURCHASE: I like the little squares--they are excellent for patterns, I bought the one with the two circles that say "Hi" and "Hello" because they had little stem/branch/flower things that I have been looking for. Then I bought the the birdies and flowers because, well, I love birds. As for the large set of clear stamps, I have been looking for tree/branches/leaves and this fulfills my need and it even has owls and birds! (except now, I want the branch I saw at Angela's happy stamper, but this will come later.)
This is what I made with them:
