I'm Celebrating a Bi-centenery!!

First bit of exciting news!! The last post was my 200th to this blog & I'm gonna celebrate by giving out a little RAK or two - it's open to anyone, anywhere in the world!
Rather than just leaving a comment, I'd like you to answer the following question:
If you had £200 (or USD, or whatever currency your country uses) that MUST be spent on craft goodies - what would you buy & why.
Pop me a li'l comment on this post and I'll pick a random winner at 7 am (GMT) on Wednesday 12th December (that's 200 hours by my calculations! LOL) I'll post the winner sometime on the Wednesday night. Good luck!!

I would buy some new dies and embossing folders for my BigKick Sizzix. And I would need some new cardstock to use with them and I REALLY want the whole set of Stampin UP markers. So I would start with the markers and fill in with the rest...thanks for the chance....Happy Holidays!

Hi,Happy Holidays!Congratulations! If I had $200, ohhh, a new and better paper cutter that cuts straight, nestabilities dies, especially the illusive snowflake one I could get and had to totally re-work my xmas cards (lolol), :(... and some things I don't have, pretty primas, some glass things, alcohol inks, distressed inks. Any of the above would be just fine. Or even a class or 2 instead.

I'd definitely buy a boat load of Copic markers. BTW - I'm a girl from Kent too, but landed on the American soil a number of years ago. Love your blog!

Linda SS said...

I'd get a couple Cricut cassettes, and spend the rest on stamps. Thanks for offering blog candy:)

Amy said...

I would buy as many nestabilities dies as I possibly could....along with the adapter for the sizzix. Congrats on 200 posts!!!

I'd go to the Fiskars crafts website and buy punches, to Costco to get some paper and stamps and a crop-a-dile. That's the things on my list right now. i've gone stamp crazy. Great question. i'd have NO problem spending that much on craft supplies. If I had $500 I'd buy a silhouette cutting system.

Looby said...

ooh good question! I would buy a couple of new catridges from my expression and lots of clear stamps - you can never have too many - especially alphas!!

Ruth said...

Well done Guv on 200 posts!!
Can I cheat and say I'd spend £200 on a boys weekend away for my DH so I could scrap in peace!!
Seriously though, I would probably go for that pink crop-a-dile set you are selling!! And whatevers left on whatever catches my eye!

Alix said...

Way to go, Guv!! A bi-centenary and youdon't look a day over 35! lol

now to the real question...£200? Oooh would have to be some of the 12x12 Fancy Pants stamps for me...i've been eyeing them forever...a bottle of Jack for my OH {so he didn't die of shock when the parcel arrived} and a fuzzy new pair of pyjamas to wear while i play with my new stamps and ignore the rest of the World!! Oh yes...and Maltesers...just to keep my strength up!! lol

Oh how Ilove such wonderful RAKs well first I would take the £200 and convert it to $, immediately I would have more money to buy more stash. The first thing I would get is the Bind It All, I had my hands on one a few weeks a go and then common sense spoke and I left it for another day eg Christmas (hint, hint!) then I guess it would be lots more luvly paper and embelishments as well as some more dies.

hmm £200 now if it was £2000 that would be easy lol i would buy lots of new stock that is due out from wholesalers this spring, But anyways sorry got carried away he he

If i had £200 i would buy all of those fabulous Magnolia Stamps I've had my eye on Tilda all year but just simply know if i buy one i wont stop! and i got a wedding to save for !
By my working out i could roughly get around 40 Magnolia stamps Oh my 40 little Tilda's ohhhhhhhh a Girl can dream?
