Prime Purchases October 2018

Linking up for with Tanya at The Other Side of the Road for Prime Purchases.

All of my purchases this month have been supplies for memory-keeping Project Life and the upcoming December Daily. 

The Viewmaster Reel is a huge hit with December Daily memory keepers.  Insert photos from your favorite Christmas movies and you have a great page for your album.  Last year, I bought a reel from Etsy but this year, I scored what was listed as "Only 1 left in stock" - a Tim Holtz die of my own - and now I'll be whipping out my own reels from my Sizzix Big Kick.  If you're interested, it appears they have restocked.

Next up, a new page design in pocket protectors - I usually use the protectors that feature horizontal pockets for 4 x 6 photos but I picked up a package for vertical 4 x 6 photos, Becky Higgins' Design D.  I also added a VersaMarker Pen - if you're not familiar with Versamark, it's a clear ink that you use to stamp a design and then cover the wet ink with embossing powder and set it with a heat gun.  It's a great way to make a stamp design pop with texture.  The pen is designed for those little places, perhaps only one part of a stamp.

And finally on the memory-keeping front, Attach Me tabs.  If you don't want to punch holes in a card or photo or other item that you plan to use in your album, attach a couple of these little tabs and you're all set to go.  Make sure you line up the holes with a page protector or other item that already fits in your album.

My last purchase this month came from Whole Foods but if you don't have a Whole Foods in your area, trusty Amazon will take care of you.  Swiss Muesli cereal is amazing!
