wiseheartToday was Elise's private farewell party due to her immediate retirement, so I got half a day free from Mum to go to my craft shops before that. Because one needs some happy money spending now and then.
I don't want to spam you with dozens of pics, so I'll link this to my Pinterest board. The "Atelier des Arts" papers from Stamperia can be viewed here and the 12"penny emporium gallery papers from BoBunny are here. I also bought some simpler stock, for further use for paper embroidery.
Updated two hours later because the urgent need for watching some telly:
Elise's farewell party was lovely... what little I participated in. I didn't want to spend too much time in close quarters with 20 other people, even though we were outside, so I just stayed for the festive speech and the congrats. Adrienne, a young colleague of us, has brought her seven-month-old little son, so the cuteness factor was extremely high. Elise didn't know of the party in advance, her hubby cajoled her to the place under false pretenses. She was so touched that she cried. It was really moving and nice.
Update the second - just one Stamperia sheet, called "Faces and Writing", to give this post a little atmosphere:
