Atleast There Was A 7gypsies Booth
This past Sunday some friends and I went to a near by rubber stamp convention. I was hoping to show you all the great finds that I would find. However, there weren’t really any great finds. Maybe it was because I was spoiled the time I went to the Great American Scrapbook Convention. This was much, much smaller then I expected. I was also expecting booths full of original rubber stamps. Instead most of the rubber stamps weren’t mounted and cost as much as mounted stamps. Also it seemed all the booths had the same stamps and they were mostly geared for altered arts. You know I love altered arts so I saw a number I liked but like I said they weren’t mounted and just seemed so high so I didn’t purchase any. Yes not having already mounted stamps saves room but I am the type that wants to pick up my stamp and press. I don’t mind the clear stamps because with those you are building a scene. At the last Great American Scrapbook Convention I went to there was a greater variety of one of a kind rubber stamp booths. So really the only things I found were vintage style label cards by 7gypsies at the top of this page. At 7 for $2 I don’t know if it was a great find but I really like 7gypsies stuff and I never find any of their products locally. I also found a couple of packs of cover board 10 pieces for $1.50. I bought a pack of rectangle and square cover board packs these will be good for mini book covers. The other thing I found was spray glitter for paper. You can turn dull dark colored cardstock into glittery paper with just a few squirts or jazz up a card or scrapbook page when you have that something is missing feeling.
