Kim's Class




Here are a couple of cards Kim has made and done in her morning class on Saturday. I think these stamps are so pretty and Kim makes them look extra gorgeous when she decoupages them. I will put the cowboy cards on tomorrow. If you like the burgundy paper you will have to wait until they come back into stock as all the ladies snapped up this paper and there is none left! We had some lovely ladies in for the classes on Saturday from Hull and would just like to say Hi to Sue, Fiona & Jo and look forward to seeing you again at the end of August.

****CONGRATULATIONS ****

We would just like to Congratulate Kate on winning the Free Prize Draw from our Shop Birthday. Kate won a hamper or craft goodies worth over £30, so well done Kate!

Thank You Teacher


I had to share my 8 year old son's card for his teacher with you. I thought he made a great effort with this card but I was very proud of what he put inside, it read ' Thank you for teaching me. I liked learning about the Romans and thank you for Gardening Club and I like eating radishes.' He has loved planting seeds and growing plants and vegetables and bringing home the produce for us all to taste!

Kim does decoupage with Sarah Kay




On Saturday Kim Fee demonstrated the new Sarah Kay stamps. These cards are absolutely fantastic! You can't fully appreciate the detail of these cards on the blog but they are so beautiful in the flesh. We have run out of a few of these stamps but have more on the way. Check them out http://www.craftsulove.co.uk/sarah_kay.htm
