DEMO DAY!!!

Morning All

Just wanted to say a BIG THANK YOU to everyone who came along on Saturday for the Demo. I had such a good time (so much so I didn't even take a break!!!! - but anyone who knows me - knows I can easily talk for 6 hours non stop!!!!)

I hope you all enjoyed it and got some inspiration for Christmas
Thought I'd upload some of the cards I made on the day for those of you who couldn't make it - there are many more in the shop - so if you pop in feel free to have a browse through the basket of them

Thanks for stopping by and hope to see you soon

JUST A LITTLE CATCH UP!!

Hi Everyone!!!

Sorry it's been a while since I've posted anything - busy, busy, busy!!!!

Anyway .... thought I'd give you a quick update on what's going on :o)

Tommorow, Saturday 6th November we have a Parchment demo with our Tutor Cherry Trapmore - she will be here from 2pm - 4pm showing you a variety of things including tools you need, embossing and pricking. Pop along and see this fantastic technique in action and then you have the opportunity to book on one of Cherry's classes either Tuesday afternoons or Friday mornings.

Then ... next Saturday 13th November I will be doing a demo on Quick and Easy Christmas Cards.  I will be here from 10:00 - 4:00pm and I will be using an assortment of stamps, papers, decoupage, embossing folders and die cut toppers to show you just how quick your cards can be but still look like you've spent hours making them!!

It's all free ... so please come along and join us and say hello :o)

Don't forget as well that you still have just over a week to enter our challenge  CLICK HERE for details - entries need to be in by 9pm on Sunday 14th November and I will announce a winner on Monday 15th.

NOW IN STOCK as well is the new promotion of DO CRAFTS - there are some fantastic things this time, the new Woodland, Born to Shop and Oriental ranges, some brilliant mini punches, beautiful flowers and much, much more!!! Pop in to take a look or CLICK HERE

I think that's all for now .... hopefully see you at the Demo tomorrow and again on Saturday 13th November as well :o)

See you all soon
