Ally Pally Stash!!

Well, I hadn't been for a while, so decided this year

to go to the 

Big Stamp & Scrapbooking Show at

Alexandra Palace 

Before I do the big reveal, here's a few photos

from outside the building

Here's my chauffeur, I wouldn't have gone

if it wasn't for him (aka John, the hubby!)

.... and a couple of photos of the inside

 We went yesterday (Sunday), arriving about an hour after opening time and it wasn't very busy at all.  There didn't seem to be as many stalls as the last

time I went although that was a few years ago now.

John said he was surprised there were no AA signs along the route

like there used to be.

The good thing about that was it was a lot easier to get around

and I could see the demonstrations better - although the only one

I did watch in detail was by the fabulous Lin Brown on the PaperArtsy stand.

Needless to say I spent far too much - although I did

have some birthday money to spend

(that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it!!)

Here's the stash -

 I finally got those Dina Wakley and Prima stamps - yay!!

If that lot doesn't ignite my crafting mojo, I don't know what will.

Thanks for looking :)
