Scrapbooking Made Simple Warehouse Sale Haul Part One is what we have for you today. Today we have crafting goodies not a tutorial so sit back, relax and enjoy my shopping spree…and it won’t cost you a penny! You may even get to win something!

I want to start off by sending my love, hugs and prayers to Stacey and her family, the owner of Scrapbooking Made Simple and the reason why I have the Scrapbooking Made Simple Warehouse Sale Haul Part One today. Sadly, she had a house fire THE DAY HER AWESOME SALE STARTED! Unfortunately, her house is a total loss. Fortunately, everyone is OK but the devastation of years of memories gone has got to be horrible. Please says some prayers for her and her family while they go through this.

I don’t know about you but I really do still like the old fashioned dies. Ya know… the thick ones.

I  like to use them because unlike the wafer thin dies, I can make multiple cuts thru a larger quantity of paper which saves me time. I also have a Big Shot Pro which is a die cut machine that cuts dies that are 12″ x 12″ so that is awesome for scrapbook pages, larger cards and envelopes.

You can also use two of the Bigz Sizzix dies together at one time with it because of its larger machine format size.

For Scrapbooking Made Simple Warehouse Sale Haul Part One, I am showing you the larger, thicker dies I purchased.

For this first die, I was really excited because it got me thinking of different ways I could use our stamp sets with these die cuts. They would be perfect for sentiments or even making a cool pattern with scrap pieces of paper! So many ideas!!

I love this die! Although I have a similar one that I have used with blue jeans, I have ideas on how I am going to use this one the same way! What a perfect way to dress up a gift card gift, right? Stay tuned because I will be doing a tutorial on it in one of my future Mondays with Melissa posts.

Another item for my Scrapbooking Made Simple Warehouse Sale Haul Part One was this wallet die. I love all of the extra die cuts it comes with so you can really make it as fancy or plain as you wish. The buckles are adorable and can be used for other creations as well!

This is a Sizzix Big Shot Pro die. It is a 12 x 12″ die that is used with the Sizzix Big Shot Pro Machine.

There are so many things you can do with this die.

You can use it as the envelope as  it was designed for or you can use it as an invitation using the inside of it as your area to write. You can also use it as a pocket and just cut off the one side! There are so many possibilities!

This is also another Big Shot Pro Die. I love the A2 card and that it has a way for you to add a die on the inside where you can create a cut out in the front of the card itself. It doesn’t have to be used but what a great addition to any creation!

I also purchased two of these embossing folders… Hmmm… what should I do? I guess you will have to wait until the end of this post to find out…..

For the awesome sale, Stacey had some awesome giveaways of her own! I wanted to be sure to show you them! First is the awesome glitter marker exclusive to Scrapbooking Made Simple. It is really cool and I can’t wait to use it!

You also get a scrapbook kit, pin, die and stamp set! This is just my Scrapbooking Made Simple Warehouse Sale Haul Part One… we have two more to show you in the coming weeks!

Now, for the GIVEAWAY! I am giving away this embossing folder. You can use it with ink, paint, white core paper and SO MUCH MORE! It’s an awesome folder that has numerous uses and can be used for both women and men! Multi -Use.. my kind of product!
