love that Bazzill... I'm a bazzillaholic now.. we have M-C to thank for that.. lol.. I never saw a piece of it till M-C hooked me up! Now I could NEVER have enough.. lol Michelle

Thank you Michelle :)

Love it.. the colors are just so vibrant and there are so many colors to choose from. When I go to the scrapbook store I know that I'll find a color to match whatever it is that I need :)

And I still can't get enough of it! I often check ebay for really good deals on it - I only buy if it's a great deal (less than .40 for a 12x12 sheet). I haven't bought anything for a while but I'm dying to have the Chatterbox colors. And now I'm seeing all this other paper out there - a true paper floozy!

Yeah I think I pay about .60 a sheet for it at the scrapbook store. I don't mind paying it cause I really like it. I could get cardstock at Michaels in the packs like I've done before but the colors just are not the same. I also love the texture and the way it looks when you paper tear :) Haven't looked on Ebay for any before. Trying not to buy a lot right now since Christmas is around the corner.

The other day I went to the scrapbook store to get some paper for the recipe swap and spent about $19 just on paper.. That's all I bought... :) Gotta love paper :)

But of course went to Wal-Mart last night and finally used $10 of my $50 gift certificate.. I bought 3 Christmas punches.. Might buy more but not sure yet :)

oooh - sounds like you had fun at the SB store! Speaking of Walmart, I forgot to mention that they had the Titanium cutter bees for $8.88 when I was the other night. I bought them since they are the only ones I don't have.

Oh boy did I. I love going there. The 2 ladies that run the store are so nice and very helpful.

Really? hmmm... I didn't see them at this Wal-Mart.. I might have to see if DH will take me to the Wal-Mart in Sarasota. That's the one we used to always go to but now its father from us. But it did have a bigger craft section then the Wal-Mart here in Venice. What do you use the Titanium ones for? I have the regular cutterbees and I now have the Honeybees..

We have a Super Walmart and they tend to have a holiday display in the middle of the aisles near the crafts and fabric. There were 3 different colors of them hanging on one of those strips off the side of this display. Right now the display has a mix of Fall/Thanksgiving/Christmas stuff on it - like ribbon, sun catchers, potpourri, and other crafty stuff. I never bought any of the Titanium ones because I didn't really have anything metal to use them on. But I went to Michaels a while back and used my Joanns 40% off coupon on one of those MM metal stamping sets and I bought a few sheets of metal. It wasn't until later that I thought "how am I going to cut it?" I think it says you can use regular scissors because it's thin enough but all my scissors have designations and none are for metal so I bit the bullet and spent the $9+. I got the green ones:))

Ooooh, I think I need those scissors! LOL Tabitha, sounds like you have a good punch for next year's punchie swap! LOL

The Walmart here in Venice is a Super Walmart. That's where we do our grocery shopping now. They have the same display :) But unfortunately they don't have the scissors. I should probably find a reason to use them before I buy them though :) Oh that's really cool. I've seen those. You'll have to share when you do something with the stamping set :)

LOL :) LOL :) I got the paper shaper holly leaf, gingerbread man and christmas light.

Couple weeks ago I used a 40% coupon at this place here called Craft Depot and got the Whale Of A Punch Puzzle piece.

Plus I used some of my GC that my parents gave me for Michaels and got the sizzix candy cane :) I wanted to try something out that I saw in a magazine for Christmas cards.

Got to love those punches!!! :)

Titanium is not necessarily metal intended as in meaning to cut metal. Titanium is a very lightweight metal designed to not tarnish and turn funky colors, or rust up. It's a very durable metal, therefore meant to last you a long time. A lot of times people are foiled by it's durability due to the light weightedness of it. It tends to outlast stainless anytime. It's also used a lot in opthalmics, such as found in eyewear. Titanium eyewear will be more expensive than nickel, or stainless eyewear because of it's durability. Folks that choose that type of metal in their hardware tend not to need to come back as often, hense it's expense. So if you are borderline in thinking about purchasing a pair. Go ahead. You're gonna get way more than your moneys worth out of them.
