Long time since last blog.....

Oh dear,
I cant believe its been so long since my last blogging.
Well for those who know, will know I've gone through quite a lot over the last year or so, and still moving forwards.
Ive moved business to a lovely location and nice bright building.
Ive stopped attending the shows up and down the country, just had so much work to concentrate on in the new shop, I didn't have time to attend shows too.
To be truthful, I don't miss the extremely hard work that goes with the shows either, but I'm loving the extra time I'm getting at home with my family. (which I missed out on for around 4yrs)

I now not only run my crafty days on Wednesdays, but also every fortnight on a Saturday, all day.
We often have a full house, and people stay all day, we can provide food and hot & cold drinks.
Maybe you should call in one day soon.

Well, now that I've found my blog again, I'm intending to keep more up to date with it, and share with you lots of projects and hints and tips that I find along the way.
Please call by again soon.

Stall set-up at Estom sports centre.

This is my stall at the Eston Show. I was  very pleased with this set up, and both my son and daughter helped me out. We had a great day, and so many people were pleased to have a local show. I look forward to our next visit here. Well done to the Ross papercraft Team ;-)

Our next show is at teh Bonus arena, Hull. Looking forward to seeing some of our regulars there. Been such a long time.

Chocolate Baroque Stamps & brayer

The stamps are Choclate baroque Haberdashery, I have also used flitter glue & gold flake for the embroidery scissor and on one of the hat pins. A touch of cream lace, buttons and stiching.

Main stamps again from Chocolate Baroque. (found the foilage stamp amongst my collection)

This week I have been playing with some gorgeous stamps from Choclate Baroque (available in store now) & my brayer. We have the lovely Lesley Wharton come to the shop and teach  techniques with stamping and using the brayer. Here are a couple of my attempts this week. Can you spot my mistake?
