Shop Hop Stop #22: Paper Tales

Goodies from Paper Tales! :)

Stop #22, Paper Tales, Destination: Japan

After Solana Beach, we went ahead and headed to Paper Tales. My friend was busy and without wasting time, we decided to visit Paper Tales first, then head over to visit my friend afterwards.

When I first walked into the store, it was busy! The store was filled with people. The store was decorate with Japanese theme. The store was so crowded, it was so difficult to get around the store to look at everything. I picked up some ribbons, some Stickles, stamp and cardstock paper. I got the Make N' Take as well as the bottle cap.

There was a class going on in the back as well. There were a group of ladies working on the album, it was pretty cool. The Make N' Take required us to do some stampings. After I made my purchase, I had to walk to the back by the crop area and prestamp the pages. I also took a picture of the 2 layouts so I could remembered how it looked like. That way, when I finally get a chance to work on it, I would know how to put it together!

I tried to stamp the page just like the sample. I took me a long while to stamp it. I wanted to make sure it stamped perfectly and exactly like the one shown. I don't think I stamped it exactly like the one showing at the store, but very similar to it.

New addition to my bottle cap necklace!

The bottle cap was so cute! It had a bird cage charm on it! I love it! I loved the color of the background as well! :)

After our trip to Paper Tales, Tommy and I stopped by to Rolando's for California Burrito at Mission Valley. It was quite funny how we drove by this same Rolando's last weekend while we were in San Diego. I hope I will be visiting the San Diego Scrapbook stores more in the near future.

Next time... Stop #23!
