CHA and a few questions...

Firstly, some technical questions: do any British scrappers order stuff from the USA? I ordered a box of stuff from 2 peas (which has arrived but needs collecting from the Post Office!!!!) and while it was amazing to have so much choice unlike anything I see in shops or online in the UK, the postage and customs duty make it quite expensive. Anyone have any suggestions? I'm thinking of getting the monthly kit that Studio Calico make but I'm not sure if it would end up being worth it.

On definite up, I will soon have my new box of supplies although I have to wait until I get home on Monday.

All this wistful wanting has definitely been inspired by some of the amazing things I've seen from the CHA sneak peeks - so much beautiful new stash! I thought I'd make myself a post with my favourites in so here goes:

I LOVE the Sassafras stitched flowers - they're so detailed but now overwhelming but they pop up...and I just used up my last packet. I'll take one in every colour please.

I also love their lines "Count Me In" and "Mix and Mend", the former being spot on for a maths teacher and the latter being simply too delicious for words.

Also, I love the Restoration Collection from Crate Paper and I wouldn't mind a pack of their Christmas line Snow Day either!

I'm also totally tempted by new lines from Jillibean Soup, and in fact loads more but I'm going out for breakfast now and will have to return to this later.

Until then,
