New Year, New Hobby!

I've got so many exciting events already planned for this year that I don't where to begin!

I am kick starting the year off with my first evening class at 19:00 on Wednesday 30th January at St Johns Church in Cowper Street.  This class is suitable for beginners and experienced crafters.  During the evening you will create handmade card, scrapbook page and a 3d project using some fabulous sale-a-bration products.  This is a great way to try a new hobby for only £10!  Places must be booked and paid for in advance by emailing creativecraft@btinternet.com or using the link below.

We are also now taking bookings for our Children's Craft Workshop!

Places cost £16 per child and includes all materials for a fun packed day of spring crafting including some gorgeous Mother's Day projects! All they need to bring is a packed lunch, all other materials and refreshments are supplied.

These workshops are very popular and all previous events have sold out so early booking is advised. For more information or to book your place please email thespeciallittlecakecompany@gmail.com

New Products

Have you had a chance to look at the new Stampin' Up! Catalogue yet?  Fabulous isn't it!!  205 pages packed full of gorgeous new products.  Today I am going to share two of the new stamp sets.  

The first is Fabulous Florets which is a collection of six stamps available in clear (£17.95) and wood mount (£21.95)

The second is my new favourite sentiment set, Perfectly Penned.  Four gorgeous sentiments which are only £11.95 in clear mount or £14.95 in wood.

The cards below incorporate both sets and show how versatile they can be even when using the same colour combination.  

On the first design the centre image has been stamped and left uncoloured for a clean bold look.

 

The second card shows a more subtle effect you can create when stamping the image in StazOn and then colouring in with a blender pen.

A big thank you to my wonderful friend Maria Mitchell for inspiring the team to recreate these wonderful ideas.

If you would like to place an order or find out more about Stampin' Up! please contact me at creativecraft@btinternet.com
