Ahh wasn't that fun!

The Crop yesterday I mean!

We had a funfilled day where everyone who came had a great laugh - lots of laughing, lots of tea drinking and a bit of scrapping even happened!!!  Thanks Ladies look forward to seeing you all again next month (if not before for most of you!)

So I thought I would just post a short one tonight and let you know that the WS Designs templates are at present all on sale at a massive 40% off.  Now I think you would be hard pushed to disagree that this makes them absolutely great value!

You can find them all on our website by clicking here

Hope you're all ok

Take care

so how we doing?

Hiya

Hoping you're all ok?

I've just come out of my Craft Room which is unrecognisable as the Dining Room it's supposed to be!?!

I've been having a play with a few things - which I'll have some photo's of tomorrow for you (not entirely sure where the camera is just now) 

So this was the class we did on Monday


The Ladies all produced some lovely work as always and we had great fun.

One of the other things that came out of Mondays workshop is that we will be holding a Craft, Crop and Coffee Wednesdays, and the first one to be held is Wednesday 10th Feb 10am-4pm £5 per person and as with all of our Workshops and crops this includes your hot and cold drinks and some biccies!  If you would like to book for the day click here!

Hope to see you all soon

It's our Princess's Birthday!!!

Now those of you that come into the shop a lot will know who Abi is!  For those of you that don't she is Bev's daughter, my niece and our mums grand-daughter.  Bee Crafty's very own rockhard fairy!

Today she celebrated her 2nd Birthday and she has had a wonderful day with her mummy and daddy!

Today me and mum spent the most part of the day making her cards - you know how it is - it's for one of the most special people in your life and all you want to do is get it perfect!  Well they were - all turned out great - now I dont have any pictures as she's only had them this evening but I absolutely will get some pictures to you! 

What I will say is I used a fair bit of Hot Pink Organza ribbon and a bit of this paper

It's from the Cupcake range by Crafts House

It has a lovely pearlecent effect to it with the colours all nice and bright.

To find other papers by Crafts House just click here.

So like I said pictures to follow soon.

Hope you're all ok

Take care

Cropping time again!!!

It's that time again

Cropping Sunday at Bee Crafty, 11am-4pm Sunday 7th February.  Now most of you know the rules by now but a quick version for those of you that don't - it's just £5 for the day this includes your teas, coffee's hot chocolate and biscuits.  You also get to use the scrapping space and this allows you to do whatever projects you are working on.

One of the products I can't get enough of at the moment is the Distress Ink pads.  It was one of these which I have used for the recent workshop - Funky Edges


I used the Walnut Stain to dull down the edges of the papers once I had "roughed" them up a bit and also on the cardboard.


At just £4.90 the Distress Ink pads are value for money and have great longevity - as long as you look after them - I think this goes with any product though be it crafting or otherwise. 

You can find the entire range of Distress Ink pads that we stock here on our website.

we've been window shopping!!

Hiya

How are we all?  Sorry for my lack of input over the last couple of days.

We have been having a look at some different tables for the workshop - something to give us a brighter feel but a great workspace for you to use.  What this means is that you will have a workspace that allows you the space required (as a crafter I know how much we can actually take up) for the projects that you come to Bee Crafty to complete.

We are currently thinking about some more workshop days to plan in for you that would be able to happen on Saturdays.  Now this is all in the early stages so not something happening immediately but definately something to keep your ears and eyes out for as they will absolutely be productive and above all good fun!!!

So thats it from me for today
