Hello Belles! Welcome to my LiveJournal! :)

Here's the stuff that I won in the House Challenge.



I get the distinct impression that The Scrapbook Lady is closing down. I'll have to have a look for her website. Everything has that dusty feel about it, like it's been sitting in a box for years being thumbed through and never bought. The puffy stickers are yellowing at the edges and curling. The prices on the back are far too high, nobody would ever pay that, not to mention they all have red crosses next to them, which implies sale stock. It comes to a grand total of £28.32!!! Sadly, most of this is stuff I probably would pass by in a carboot... I know that sounds awful. :(

The PoemStones I have bought in the past, but in a sale when they were 50p - not £4.50. I'll use the purple ribbon, I expect, but it's not worth £4.23. As for the rest of it... oh dear.

I suppose that's what happens if you win something, you don't know what you're going to get, but if they honestly think it's all worth £28.32 then I can think of many better ways of spending the money.

Perhaps that's why there was a delay? She agreed to sponsor the challenge, but then closed down? Or agreed to sponsor the challenge so she could offload some kit?
