More Spellbinders Nestabilities and Lawn Fawn Stamp

Once I purchased my Cuttlebug, I asked Debbie from Crafty Heart how much she sells for Spellbinder Nestabilities as I would like to get another scallop circles dies. I do not want to purchase from Scrapbook Memories anymore as I know Debbie's price would be cheaper. Well, my guess is correct when Debbie replied me with the estimated price since I did not give her which actual dies I want.

Back : The actual dies

We exchanged some e-mails asking the actual dies I want but after few rounds of checking, finally, she informs that her supplies only have Spellbinders Nestabilities S4-124 Classic Scallop Circle Large. I settled for this since this dies is compatible to the earlier Spellbinder Nestabilities S4-116 Standard Circle Small that I bought.


I also asked if Debbie would re-list her Christmas stamps soon but she informs that most of her Christmas stamp has been sold out last year. However, she offered to look for me for the stamp I want which is Imaginisce Mittens. Well, luck is not on my side as her suppliers do not have this stamp anymore but she informs that she will post the new batch of Christmas stamps soon.

Lawn Fawn Critters in the Sea

I ordered Lawn Fawn Critters in the Sea from her store as well. After few days, I added my order to include Hero Arts CL245 Happy Winter Occasions when she acknowledges me that she posted her new batch of Christmas stamps.

Hero Arts CL245 Happy Winter Occasions

Two (2) packs (five pairs each packs) of 8mm googly eyes

I order another order from her store when she announced that she will be moving back permanently to Kuching, Sarawak and having 20% discount on all items except pre-order. Well, who can resists 20% discount when normally Debbie only offer up to 15% discount. Thus, I ordered two (2) packs (five pairs each packs) of 8mm googly eyes since I bought my Hero Arts CL391 Monster Fun earlier.

This time, these items reached to me late as Debbie was moved back permanently to Kuching, Sarawak. I think she must have something bothering her as she mistaken used PosDaftar (registered post) instead of Poslaju to deliver the items to me which delayed few more days. I did not realize she used PosDaftar when she e-mailed me the tracking number but I do suspect something. When I received the parcel, then only I realized that she used PosDaftar which I e-mailed her that I paid the Poslaju shipping fees. She replied and apologize on the mistake done and promise that she will deduct the remaining of the Poslaju shipping fees in my next purchase.

I am going to start some projects soon as I have some deadlines on my mind before I stop crafting for maybe a quite some time.

New Addition of Stamp

Debbie done a sale for her store, Crafty Heart on 19 February 2011 till 23 February with 10% discount on all items expect pre-order. I did not take the offer as the stamps I want (Christmas stamps) was removed from her store to make some room for the new items.

In early March 2011, she announced that there are some new stamp stocks on We R Memory Keepers. I take a peep into her store and eyed for one particular stamp from We R Memory Keepers but did not order it as I am still considering to buy other items or not. On 22 March 2011, Debbie e-mailed us that her store, Crafty Heart will have another sale till 25 March 2011 with 15% discount on all items expect pre-order. It was lucky for me that I did not take the February 2011 offer as this March 2011 discount was better and also some new stamps.

On the same day of 22 March 2011, I ordered two (2) items from Crafty Heart. They are We R Memory Keepers Clear Stamp Family Keepsake collection - Brother and Making Memories basic medium circle brads. I did not pay on the spot after Debbie has confirmed my order as I been thinking if I have others to purchase. Debbie sent an extended sale notification on 24 March 2011 which the sale will be extended till 27 March 2011. The extended sale notification e-mail served as a reminder to me to pay my order.

I made the payment on 25 March 2011 but it was too late as Debbie has already gone to the post office. She told me that she will only post my items on Monday instead. Well, what can I said since I missed the boat and it was my fault that I did not make the payment earlier.

Anyhow, these two (2) items has arrived at my doorstep today! I hope I can make use of them very soon especially the brads as I have some projects idea on my mind!

Hero Arts Christmas Stamp Set (and others) Has Arrived!

Hero Arts CL266 Mix & Match Elements
Imaginisce To Love & Cherish Collection Item 002200 Frame
Imaginisce Scooter's Vacation Collection Item 001929 Suitcase
Hero Arts CL461 Wishes Come True

I been eying to buy the some of the Hero Arts Jingle All The Way Holiday 2010 Catalog stamp set for a while when it is first launch especially on Hero Arts CL461 Wishes Come True. But due to limited budget, I did not proceed but been asking Debbie if she will include them in her pre-order since there is none in her store as well as planning for the budget. Debbie added the catalog collection on 19 August 2010 which can be pre-ordered under batch #7 but I did not order due to budget restraint.

However, it is a good thing that I ordered later as later, Debbie is so generous that she give out a 15% discount for all items in conjunction to Hari Malaysia which is on 16 September 2010 and the discount is valid till 24 September 2010. It is a countable saving and I know I really need to get those stamp sets I been putting on my wish list. I made my budget and finally I ordered on the last day before the promotion end for Hero Arts CL461 Wishes Come True and CL266 Mix & Match Elements and VC0022-2 Studio G Series 42 Clear Stamps - A Mother Is The Heart Of The Home (which delivered earlier to me as requested - refer to this post). Eventually, Debbie extended the promotion discount to 30 September 2010 - so generous of her!

You know what?! Debbie really so generous that she made another promotion discount sale after that. It is a one (1) day special sale valid on 20 October 2010 only with 20% discount for all items again! I really cannot resist even my budget is so telling me not too. Thus, I opt for something cheaper and affordable like Imaginisce Scooter's Vacation Collection Item 001929 Suitcase and To Love and Cherish Collection Item 002200 Frame. Phew~ I requested Debbie to deliver these two (2) stamps with the pre-order so that I can save some postage charges.

Well, things are not going so smooth with this pre-order batch #8 as the shipment was delay at USPS for almost two (2) weeks and then only shipped to Malaysia. Due to that, I and other buyers have to wait for our items a bit longer and it really killing me when I wanted the stamp to enter Hero Arts November Challenge - Gift Tags or Handmade Gifts. Not to mention I need to prepare a well numbers of mini cards for Christmas which the ideas has been lingered in my mind for a while now. I need to start early as it is a number of cards I need to make and also because of my speed of making cards. :P

Finally, the items arrived to Debbie on 16 November 2010 where she announced on her blog as well as e-mailed to us. I am so excited to see my stamp sets on her blog. I e-mailed her after that I recently moved and gave her the new address for deliver. What a bad luck for me as on 18 November 2010, Debbie e-mailed me that she ran out of Pos Ekspres and will deliver my items on 19 November 2010! Thus, I have to wait a day longer.....:(

No matter what is the consequences my stamp sets and I suffered, we are together now! I really cannot wait to use them in my next projects. Yay!
