My reviews are based on my personal experience with a product or event. I am not a professional product tester nor do I get paid for any of my blog posts.

The items that I post reviews on, have either been purchased on the internet or through a local vendor. Additionally I will review items that I got on sale, as a gift or as a sample from either the manufacurer or some other source.

Note: always read the manufacturers directions on how to properly use a product and craft carefully. Additionally, I am an Amazon Associate and may earn a few cents (literally) from your clicking on my Amazon links. Since they raised the minimum payout from earnings to $10 I haven't seen a credit for a while but eventually I will get one.

Every penny counts when trying to set a budget to get supplies to use for my reviews, tutorials and hauls. However, you do not have to use my links. You can use your favorite search engine to find the best price for your budget.

Tuesday Morning Scrapbooking Supplies Haul



The Tuesday Morning Stores are a great resource for buying scrapbooking supplies at a discount.  I recently did another $30 shopping challenge with my friend to see what items I could purchase at the store without exceeding the budget.  The one rule we have is that we do not purchase anything that we truly will not use.


The first items that I found were two rolls of adhesive vinyl which I needed for a project that I am doign using my Cricut machine. I am fairly new to using the Cricut machine and prefer to purchase inexpensive vinyl until I really get the hang of it.  The price for each roll is $2.99 so if I make a mistake, it is not a budget breaker.


The second set of items that I needed was scrapbooking paper to use in my travelers notebook project.  I was so lucky to find that they had a pretty good selection of Echo Park Scrapbooking Paper with Stickers Kits.

I selected the Echo Park Paper Company Victoria Gardens Kit (Designed by Cassandra Cooper) and the Echo Park Paper Company For The Record Kit  with stickers (Designed by Lori Whittlock) for $5.99 each.  If you are not familiar with their fabulous paper kits, you may want to visit the Echo Park Paper Company blog or website to see some of their collections.

The third item was a clear sticker set by Jillibean (Hampton Art) of various phrases that I really liked.  This set was .99 cents.

The fourth item I was searching for was some double sided tape.  I have purchased the Home & Hobby brand of double sided tape before on Amazon, so I knew it was a pretty good brand.  I go through this stuff so quickly, so I always keep an eye out for good deals on it.  This on was $1.99 for 65 feet.

The last item that I am always on the look out for is pretty washi tape.  I was lucky enough to find three different washi tapes for  .99 cents.  Two were from Little B and the third roll was from Echo Park Paper Company. The Echo Park Paper Company Washi is a really cool partical clock face washi tape that is printed on a light grey washi tape.

I did not find anything else that I needed or wanted.  The total with tax came out to $26.24 which was below the $30 budget we had set for the day.  I think it was a pretty good haul for the amount I had to spend.  If you want to see another past haul I did at Tuesday Morning, then just click here to go to that post.

Note: This is not a sponsored post, I paid for everything with my own funds.

Tuesday Morning Store Martha Stewart Crafting Supplies Haul


Tuesday Morning Craft Haul

I was so excited to find out that my local Tuesday Morning store had received a shipment of Martha Stewart crafting supplies, so I rushed over to see what items they got in.  I thought I would share my Tuesday Morning Craft Haul purchases with you.
Martha Stewart Neon Glitters

I picked up two of the Martha Stewart 12 pieces Glitter Sets (they had several to choose from).  I picked up the Neon Iridescent glitter set and the Hexagonal Glitter Set. The Neon Iridescent glitter sets sells for $26.99  on Amazon.  I paid $6.99 for my set.  The Neon Iridescent glitter is really pretty in person and each color offers a fine glitter, a star shaped glitter, a diamond shaped glitter, and a hexagon glitter. The last three shapes are great for making shaker cards.
Matha Stewart Hexagon Glitter Set
The Hexagonal Glitter set sells for $17.22 on Amazon and I paid $6.99 for this set at the Tuesday Morning Store.  I consider that a really good deal.  This size of glitter is also good for making shaker cards, decorating Christmas Ornaments and more.

I also picked up the Martha Stewart 10 piece "Stamp Around the Page" Set.  The 10 piece "Stamp Around the Page Set" sells for $ 11.58  on Amazon and I paid $6.99 at Tuesday Morning.

The "Stamp Around the Page" kit comes with:

  • a stamp base
  • a clear mounting block
  • butterflies, fern, and floral branch design stamps (6 stamps total)
  • and instructions
This set is really cool because it has all the parts needed to create borders on cards, tags, etc.  The Amazon price of $11.58 is actually really good for the number of pieces that come in this set.

I also picked up a Ranger Dylusions Journal Insert Sheets set for $1.99.  The Dylusions Journal set sells for $6.99 to $8.9 at various stores.  This set contains:

  • 3 Kraft Inserts (single pages)
  • 3 Black Inserts
  • 3 mixed media Inserts
The paper insert size on these "Ranger Dylusions Journal Inserts" is a bit bigger than the standard travelers notebook page but will fit into an A5 Planner.  I just need to punch a few holes in them.


I also picked up some fun die cuts from K&Company from their Smash Collection and some pocket from American Crafts.  These were also really well priced at under a dollar each.

The next items I purchased were some beads form Bliss Beads that were priced at under $2.00 each.

The last item was an amazing deal.  It is a book called 'Substance of Life" that shows some cool scrapbooking layouts done by 25 different artists.  The book was priced at $2.99 but it had an 80% off sticker on.  I think I ended up paying 25 cents for the book.

I did another Tuesday Morning haul earlier this month where I found some great Tim Holtz stuff. If you know of any great sources for find Martha Stewart or Tim Holtz crafts supplies, please leave me a comment below and share your source.

Tuesday Morning Scrapbooking & Paper Crafts Supply Haul

Tuesday Morning Paper Crafts Haul

I love using scrapbooking and memory album supplies in my traveler's notebooks and planners, so I decided to stop by Tuesday Morning to see what they had in stock.  Sunday is a really good day to visit my local Tuesday Morning.  I have gone during the week but it is usually not stocked and the craft supply shelves are fairly picked over from the weekend.  This time I found some cute items that will work well for using in my travelers notebooks and personal planners.
The first item I bought was a really cool Memory Planner Embellishment Kit for $5.99.  They had three different color schemes in stock but I really liked the pink set.  This kit came with 5 planner clips, some die cut journaling cards, a washi sticker page, 6 clear numerical sticker sheets, a colorful clear floral themed sticker sheet, 1 gold alphabet sticker sheet, 6 self-adhesive page tags, 3 assorted size frames, and 8 individual cling stamps that are great for use in my planner.  This is an amazing deal for the price.  I found the same kit on Amazon for $18.00

The second item I purchased was a 3 piece page divider set by K&Company.

I really like these dividers and still have some unfinished Smash Books that I could add them to. This was a great deal at 99 cents.



The third item I purchased was a really pretty 8" x 8" Serengeti paper pack by 7 Gypsies. This pack was a bargain at $3.99 for 48 Sheets of double sided paper. The prints are perfect for me to use in my traveler's journals.  I found the same pack on Amazon for $15.75.


The fourth and last item that I purchased was a 12" x 12" Paper Pad by American Crafts.  This pack is called the Country Rustic pack and has 48 single sided pages.  These are perfect for backgrounds and for me to use when shooting Instagram photos.   I paid $6.99 for the Country Rustic Paper Pack which is a currently selling on Amazon for $14.08.

I love to shop at Tuesday Morning.  It can be challenging to shop there because each store is stocked differently.  I have two by my work and one by my home, so I have a few choices when I decide I want to visit one.  The deals there are often really good.  I tend to use my phone and compare prices with Amazon to check and see if an item is priced well or not.  It is also a great way to read reviews on products before I make a purchase.  Also, since I have a small crafting space I give myself a budget of $20 to shop with (this includes tax).  I seem to be able to find all types of deals there without exceeding that budget.  I would love to know if anyone else gives themselves a budget before venturing into that store too.

Disclaimer: I don't work for Tuesday Morning (thank goodness because I would probably buy too much paper from them) nor for any of the companies mentioned in this post.
