Very BAD Blogger !!!

OMG !! What a terrible blogger I have become ! I cannot quite believe how long it is since my last post. In my defence your honour, I had to install a new computer system as my other one blew up - well ok, it didn't actually blow up, but you know what I mean lol ! Up until the last couple of weeks I have been trying to keep going on a grotty and very old laptop, whilst they were building me a new pc - it's all bells and whistles now, so I can now return to blogland.



We have had so many wonderful new products in, that I don't quite know where to start, maybe with the latest and greatest.......October Afternoon - SEASIDE, this has got to be my most fave of all the October Afternoon lines - with living beside the seaside, I have a million and one piccies to go with these fab papers...........and the Shape Stickers and Wild Cards are just fab !!! Whether I will ever get time to use any is another question lol - it has been amazingly busy in the store right throughout the summer, thanks to you, my lovely customers and now we are gearing up for the traditionally busy run up to the (dare I say it) festive season.




Recent arrivals have included a massive Prima order with 6 paper collections and all the matching bits, 4 great new collections from Teresa Collins, Graphic 45 - Steam Punk, Cosmo Cricket, Jenni Bowlin and loads more - it's late on Friday afternoon and my head is boggled !!

Moving forward, we have still to look forward to October Afternoon - Schoolhouse, Modern Homemaker and Campfire (there may even be a new Christmas line) and some gorgeous new Pink Paislee, Girl's Paperie and of course all Tim's latest stuff !! Flying over the Atlantic at the moment are several boxes of brand new Stampotique stamps - more new designs from Jo Capper-Sandon and Daniel Torrente - can't wait for these to arrive :)



Ok, so is missing their mojo at the moment ? (my hand is up ) cos if you haven't already seen the Chicken Soup Blog then you need to get yourself over there, it's just what you need to kick start your creativity and there are even prizes, and whats more there is even a Craft Emporium prize, yes this month the Craft Emporium are proud to sponsor the challenge, so what are you waiting for....go take a peek !

And finally if you have read to the end of this post, we have Blog Candy !!!! If you didn't, we don't lol ! We have a set of the brand new Seaside papers to give away.... YAY !!! You know the ropes.......blah blah...

I will be back, sooner, rather than later !
