I Won !!!

Oh! My...look at the goodies I received from Sizzix.com !!!! I won one of the Basic Grey.Com NSD (National Scrapbooking Day) challenges in May2012 and this is the part of the prizes I received which was sponsored by Sizzix.Com, consist of 13 packs of dies and embossing folders worth USD 146 (RM460). The box arrived today via FedEx. I paid the custom tax of RM87 (USD27) but it's definitely worthwhile paying it.

The other prize I received last was a USD25 Basic Grey.Com voucher which, I bought 2 pads of 12x12 Core'dinations Basic Grey card stock (Ornate, Whimsy) and Basic Grey Value Pack 25's 12 x12 paper pad inclusive of FREE SHIPPING courtesy of Basic Grey.Com, received last month.

Woot...woot...I'm jumping for happy joy...
