What a week!!!

We had a fabulous time at The Great British Craft Show over the weekend, and thank everyone who visited our stand to watch Francoise and myself demonstrate our stuff.  Francoise was a huge hit with everyone that stopped by and they obviously loved her new designs as we sold out far too quickly (sorry about that, my fault for not taking enough to the show, tut, tut, tut at myself), it is really hard to judge in advance how much stock to take of stamps and accessories, sorry that I got it wrong for any of you but you can always order them from our website. There's plenty in stock and available!!!!

Thank you to all that had faith in my demos and bought the Stampendous products too, I know you will have great fun using them, I loved hearing your feedback and the ideas for projects you had in mind for using more of them.

We know that you LOVED our bargains at the show, they were very good weren't they?  Thank you for your purchases that allowed us to go home with all those empty crates :)  I think we all got a good deal on that!!

It was my birthday on Friday (setting up day), and I thoroughly enjoyed my day, (I got lovely cards and pressies :) ). Over the weekend I got to meet people who I chat to online but have never met which was so lovely, and it was great to meet up with old friends at the show too, Carol and Alan who are our very special cuddly groupies had also travelled down for the show, we were both so pleased to meet up with you both again, it's always lovely to see and chat to you both :)

In the last few minutes of the show Adam came round and took some photos of the show at our end of the hall, I was having a bit of a tidy up but Ian had decided to dig into a packet of crisps before we packed it all up.  On spying Adam with a camera, Ian was unsuccessfully heading away...



Well, I thought things were busy towards the end of last week as we prepared for the show and at the show itself but this week, on our return, it has been SO manic...

We managed to catch up on most of the website orders on Monday and got them in the post.  Our Hamish was picked up from the kennels, washing done and dried, van unloaded etc, etc...

Since then, our world has gone mad again, busy busy busy, like you wouldn't believe!!!!

Back to it all again today, will post about it as soon as...

Thanks for visiting
