Going

like hot cakes! - all the Fanciful Flight Tim Holtz Dies have now gone and only two each of the others are left.

Look

at what I collected from the parcel depot today! - yet more bigshots, these only manage a day or two on the shelves before they are gone (I think the £54.99 price tag has something to do with it!), more on the edge dies and at long last after several manufacturing delays Tim's Bigz dies - we have Tattered Florals, Elegant Flourishes, Heart & Wings, Fanciful Flight and Hanging Sign, they are fantastic (Bird Cages are to follow).You can find them here.

Spring

has sprung! - we have had several days of sun and no rain!. The caravan site has been busy this week as we have had lots of campers in buying crafty bits. I have been busy scrapping and rearranging the shop to fit all of our goodies in - it is starting to resemble the tardis when you open our door! - I made this layout using papers from one of our various page kits.

Word has it that more Tim Holtz dies are on the way and yet another re-stock of Big Shots- £54.99 inc p&p. Don't forget we can order any set of nestabilites you require and post them out to you- they are £18.99 a set and with 70 different sets there is one for every project, they work perfectly in the bigshot and you can use them to cut, emboss & stencil, my favourite set at the moment is the deckled rectangles- the wavy edge is lovely.

The Sun

is shining but I decided to scrap! - these MME papers and die cuts were calling to be used! (my new years resolution was to use gorgeous papers and not keep them forever just in case!). The photo strip is from my vintage collection, I can't resisit buying these old pictures when I see them at antiques fairs.

Updating

the web as quick as I can - the stock is arriving faster than I can catalogue it at the moment!!.

Tim Holtz On the Edge dies have been counted and added, MME is all on, new copies of Craft Stamper are there too - the free stamp this month is a very nice sunburst, the magazine is packed with inspirational articals, techniques and projects. We have had a part delivery of the new Paperie papers from Advantus- they are all double sided and are just 89p a sheet - they are next onto the web!. Don't forget if you are passing call in to the shop and say hello - we are there Mon & Fri 9.30 - 3pm and Saturday 9.30 - 4.30pm, and if you see anything you like here that hasn't got onto the web just give us a ring as we can take orders & payments over the phone too.

all on

the web - I have finally finished uploading all the new MME Jack & Jill prices start at just 40p & the accessory sheets are great value at just £1.50 for die cut stickers - all of the die cuts are cute but I love the long legged birdie and the spotty umbrella, they would be great on a handmade card. Tim Holtz edges are in the building, they just need pre orders taking out and the rest will be on the web.

It is here

The MME Jack & Jill collection - we have it all - the papers and some extras are on the website, the rest will have made it on by the end of this evening!. The papers are so nice - fantastic cardstock quality with such cute patterns, birds, umbrellas, raindrops, spots, blooms stripes, ginghams and more! - there are die cut stickers, journal cards, title cards, & alphabets - they would all be brilliant for cards, minibooks and scrapbook pages. Girls Paperie should also be landing on the doorstop this week along with our first batch of alteration dies.

This Friday we are making easel cards between 10am & 12 if you fancy popping by- we have a couple of seats spare- it is £6 for the class.
