Shopping for Christmas Craft Goodies

Most of the hard working staff at the Ben Franklin Crafts Hilo store will tell you that my hobby is not crafting....it's shopping! I don't think I've ever shopped at BFC and left empty handed. Sometimes the cashiers will be surprised that I didn't buy too much but I laugh and say that it's the third time through the checkout line that day LOL! Especially at this time of the year the stores are humming and there are so many fantastic products at Ben Frankllin Crafts. In the photo above are just a handful of the beautiful 12x12 two-sided papers from Imaginisce, new Christmas border punches from EK Success and G Studio stamps (large Xmas designs) for an amazing $1.25 each! Awhile ago I bought some terrific Penny Black clear stamp Christmas sets.
I debated about which ones to buy but now I'm glad I didn't wait because there are just a few left in the stores....better hurry if you want to purchase some of the cutest stamps of the season. Now would be a good time to become a Ben Franklin Craft club member if you aren't one already because you'll save 10% on every purchase even items on sale! Okay, enough blog surfing.....go shopping and then craft something special for someone special.

Oh my! I love to go shopping too and it's hard to walk in a store and see so much new products that you have to have. It's endless! I didn't see that PB clear stamp set here so I guess the stores must of sold out of it. Have a great evening!
