Shopping not Stamping!

No stamping today but I did do a bit of SHOPPING!

For Christmas I received a $25 gift certificate to a specialty gift shop from the owner of the scrapbook store where I teach classes. What a sweetie she is!

So I went to that store and had a look around. I saw all kinds of great home decor items, jams, jellies, serving plates and JEWELLRY!

She had some great jewellry in moonstone, jade, turquoise and other stones. I found this smoky quartz necklace with champagne coloured fresh water pearls. I LOVED it immediately and knew that I had to have it! So I bought it! Actually it wasn't that much to begin with and with the coupon it made it quite affordable.

Isn't it gorgeous! It fits in so well with my new BROWN wardrobe - brown is the new black in case you haven't heard.

Oh boy! I didn't realize how wrinkly my neck was or how low my v-neck goes until I tried to take this picture! I took like 6 shots before I could get one that didn't show my triple chin & wrinkles.
