New Year and new promotions ahead

Well Christmas is almost over for another year!

Time to think about the New Year and to start preparing for classes and Stampin' Up promotions.

The January classes are on Monday 9th January at the Windmill and Tuesday 10th at the Wick Hall. We will be making a desk calender and matching fridge note holder. Don't forget to let me know if you will be attending so that there will be a kit for you.

From the 4th January to 30th April there is a new Spring mini catalogue with lots of lovely new products for you to play with, including an exclusive line of chains, charms and baubles to create your own unique jewellery.

And from 24th January to 31st March its Sale-a-bration time, when for every £45 you spend you will be able to choose exclusive free products.

Wickmas is Coming!!!

Come along next Saturday 17th, between 10 - 2 and join in the festivities at the Wick Hall!!

There will be Christmas Stalls, including me!, a raffle, tombola, refreshments, a fancy dress competition and of course Santa will be coming to town with a free gift for all children. There will also be a donkey for the kids to have a look at.

New 5 for £6 class

Now that Christmas preparations are well under way I have been able to put my mind to new mini card class designs. Here is a set that I have put together using the Flirtatious designer paper.

If you cant make the classes at the Wick Hall or the Windmill why not book a mini class or party at your home. Don't forget that as the hostess you would get your class free.

Patchwork Bags for sale

We have two patchwork bags for sale, ideal for Christmas presents.

Handcrafted by Helen from the Timeless Portrait designer fabric.

The smaller one is £10 and the larger one £12.50.

Contact me if you are interested in one of these beautiful bags.

Not Long now!

Just under a month to go and I havent really scratched the surface yet on the Christmas present front! Off to Chichester tomorrow with the kids for a Christmas shopping trip so hopefully I will get a few more bits sorted.

On that note dont forget to get your orders in time for Christmas!

I am offering a Christmas Wish List Service where I will provide a list for you to fill in and distribute to your family and friends who can then contact me to select your presents! I will gift wrap all presents for FREE. Also gift vouchers available if you have a crafty person who you are not sure what to get.

Also what about the problem of spending all that money you get for Christmas! How about holding a party for family and friends in the New Year and buying all those things that you have been drooling over in the catalogue! An added bonus for January is "Sale a bration" time when free products will be available on all purchases over £45. So contact me to arrange a date.

Big Shot Winner

A big thank you to those ladies who attended the Craft Coffee morning yesterday. Everybody had a go on the "make & take" table and had a play with the Stampin' Up! wheels. They all made this card topper using the Music wheel and Perfect Punches stamp set.

The Big Shot raffle took place and the lucky winner was Vicki Wright, the 2nd prize of a stamp set was won by Ann Bloom and the £5 gift voucher by Geraldine Brockhurst.

Congratulations to you all.

I only wish that everyone that entered could have won a prize.

Craft Coffee Morning Reminder

Just got back from helping down at the Flower Shop at their Christmas Event. They are open till 7 pm tonight so pop in and get your raffle tickets - proceeds to St Barnabas, along with some great Christmas & tree decorations.

Also a reminder that Helen and I are holding our Big Shot raffle at a Craft Coffee Morning at Martin Saunders Scout Hall, Linden Park, East Ham Road on Saturday 10.30 to 12.30. A great way to pick up a Big Shot for £1 if you are lucky and also pick up other craft bargains at great prices.

Refreshments available and a free make & take too.

Hope to see you there!!
