Scrapbook Expo Shopping Haul

 Hubby is nice enough to all us to make the 3 hour drive north to Grapevine texas for the Scrapbook Expo that is held every year at the Gayloard Texan.  I always have so much fun looking at everything and spending more than enough money.  This post is FULL of pictures of my my Scrapbook Expo Shopping Haul.

Let me first say that I tell myself every year that I would like to do one lap of just looking at everything and pricing things out.  But then again when I go with my husband and child they are pretty much ready to go when we walk in the door.  This time though Iva Marie was excited to attend the Scrapbook Expo and to spend her own money on her own things.  I found it so much fun to go with her as she wanted to look at everything and was willing to wait for me to finish looking.

I can not remember all of the shops from the Scrapbook Expo that I purchased things at so this post will be more about the picture and then the maybe why I bought it.  Some things I really have plans with and others I bought because I really liked the colors.  I know with the paper I really don’t ‘need’ any more, but it is all just so pretty!

I bought this little thing to use to hold my cards up with I take pictures with them or even just going to use it as something in the background.  I love the way this thing looks.  I know it has a name to what it is called but I can not remember.

The stamp set I bought from the Scrapbook Expo is actually one I have wanted for quite some time.  I love the little pandas in this stamp set.  I’ve seen so many cute cards made using this stamp set as well.  I can not wait to actually play with it.
