Some deals from Hobby Craft

So today me and my partner went to Northampton to go to Hobby Craft.
So we went round the store and I found some good deals. 
Project Life things were 20% off all products. I got myself the mini kit for Holidays. It was £14.99 and I got it for £11.24

I also got two sharpie pens which are ultra fine. I got the pastel purple and black. These were £1.50 each. 

I got five wooden stamps which are small but for Christmas. This was £2.50

I two acrylic blocks for stamping and they were in a pack which cost £3.00

Dear Lizzy date stamp which is £5.00

Pukka highlighter pack which is £1.50
I also joined the hobby craft club. 

I have just got a second hand Filofax, which doesn't start till the 18th December which is great as my birthday is 19th December. I have done some stamping with my new items for the week of Christmas, I will update more when I get into it in the new year.

Loads of things but are XMAS!

Yes it is early but it's just round the corner now and that is CHRISTMAS 
I have ordered a few things like a planner from Paperchase just because I do have a filofax which is the Cancer one in the pocket size but never really used it but I wanted an A5 size because I love big planner/diary so I got myself a cheaper version of the Filofax. 
Which is this
This is Vintage London £22.00

Love the colours and it looks so cool and different from Filofax but have the same 6 rings as theirs. 
The only thing that I am not happy about is the fact the paper inside is 70lb and so my pens do bleed through the page. But they came with the planner and I will use them until I find one I like the look of or at the right price. 

My Cancer Pink Filofax I got in 2008 and I think it was £15 but it could of been in the sale the reason I like it was because it was small and it was good for my college work keeping it all together and then when I finished in 2008 I stop using it all together. So I ordered from ebay the pink sheets for 2015 to add into it and hopefully will start to use that as well to just keep in purse. I am not a pink person but it's for cancer and it's not a shocking pink either. 
The pen is from when I was in school and went through thing of loving playboy. It's a lovely writer but it's blue ink and I am a black ink person. It does have a pencil but I have some how broken the winding for the pencil and it's not working :( and it's all silver but I will keep it though as it does look pretty. 

I know I am not meant to use my big one now but I wanted to get it set up and use to it before the new year. So I have done my own dividers for both of these planners. 




I used the paper pad from New Bloom. I love these papers in this pack and just wanted to have them as my dividers I used mainly the double size paper and two one sided paper and that didn't laminate that well but I have still used it.
