Patterned Paper: Graphic 45
Location Purchased from: Pointer's Scrapbooking & Gifts, Markham, ON, Canada

I'm in heaven! >>>:)

My husband and I drove up to Markham this afternoon as he has a couple of work training sessions in the next week and wanted to see where he would have to go. I had been bugging my hubbie to go to a scrapbooking store that I discovered online. At the time I didn't realize just how close it was to where my husband's work training would be. I just knew it was in the same city, so, me being me, I just couldn't let the opportunity pass me by! I tagged along!

So, he went to check out what he needed to and I went to check out Pointer Scrapbooking and Gifts! I love checking out new places for scrapbooking/cardmaking for each store is different with different products. To my delight, I discovered that they have a couple of the paper lines from graphic 45! If there's something to know about me, it's that I absolutely adore vintage! Vintage ANYTHING!

I heard about graphic 45 on one of the card websites that I frequent and was able to buy a few pieces from Bizzy B's in Bloor West Village (Toronto) a couple of weeks ago, but no other store in the GTA (or the rest of Canada) seems to carry this fantastic company -- until now! Needless to say I almost bought out the store of their stock. ;)

I recommend Pointer Scrapbooking to anyone who scraps or makes cards. Definitely a place I will return too! It was awesome! I had never seen so much paper and embellishments at one site before! A must go to if you live anywhere in the GTA.

I went to see my family doctor this morning before driving to Markham. I discovered that my doc wants me to stay on my leave from work until we figure out what's going on with me. So it looks like I will be taking the rest of the semester off. I see the surgeon on Monday and see what tests he'd like to carry out next and I'm still waiting to hear about the specialist appointment from another doctor who has been brought into my case. FUN!

I didn't quite get that third card completed so I will have to post it tomorrow!

See you then!
