Shop with me for craft supplies! I was so excited to visit the Stamp & Scrapbook Expo in Chantilly VA. Full of energy & creativity, this scrapbook expo is always a highlight of my crafty year. In this video, I'll walk you through a little bit about the stamp and scrapbook expo and a few of my favorite booths where I do my art and craft supplies shopping. Please check out this show if it comes anywhere near you...it shouldn't be missed!

One suggestion I would make for shopping at an event like this is to "window shop" at the various booths first, without buying anything. Make notes - either digital, written, or mental - of what booths you want to go back to, then make a second go-around to those. Of course, if there are time-sensitive deals, that might impact how you can do this. But I have found that there might be more than one booth carrying staple products, like say, Nuvo drops or gilding flakes, where one seller might be a little cheaper than another. Still supporting a small business, but saving a little money to spend elsewhere. Plus, it can help you not overspend in one booth & then find another that has stuff you want but cannot then afford. Hope that makes sense. I would also recommend setting a maximum spending amount & keeping tabs on how much you have paid, just to keep from overspending and seriously regretting when the next credit card bill comes! Anyway, thank you for taking us along, Elisa. I always love your shopping trips. Take care, & I hope you have an awesome day! :)

My friend that got me into planning and I went last year to the one here in Duluth, GA. We are planning on going again this year. It is in July here. We CANNOT wait! Especially after seeing your video. We love the photoplay booth, the scrappy boy stamps booth, echo park paper co., and we both love the graphic 45 stuff. I think we both spent the most money in the scrapthatnj booth 😂 It was a lot of fun!!!

Aall & Create is a British company so I believe some of the cost is due to import duties. I LOVE their older stamps and have found online retailers who will sell at a (small) discount. Tracy Evans was my favorite designer from them, but she has left them and started her own company. She does have a KZfaq channel and ships internationally. Another British company I LOVE is Inkylicious - she too has a KZfaq channel and ships abroad. Last recommendation is Asia Marquet for Lemon Creations, and she has both KZfaq channel and ships internationally. I have ordered from all 3 and find them to be quick and responsive. Shipping and duty is not AWFUl but it is an additional expense. Enjoyed this - TFS!

My friends and I went to Denver CO in May, 2024. It didn’t seem to offer near as many booths as what you showed, and no 49 &market. I was really wanting that brand! I’m sure they all vary some. We still had plenty of products to buy!
