Weekly Catch Up

 Hello, the crafters how is everybody? I hope our email finds you well.

Well, let’s see, what’s been happening this week…


First, dog sitting duties! I’ve been looking after my friends dog, who is just gorgeous. He’s such a big softy, and often gets told off by Lola! I dont blame her, he does have a tendency to stomp on her paws - and his feet are big.






I was in the Create And Craft studios on Monday with the Carabelle shows. Poor Louise the buyer had to put the show together really quickly as the product didn’t actually arrive until a few hours before the live show! She did a fabulous job. It still breaks my heart that Carabelle shut their doors a little while ago, they were such a fantastic company. We had some brilliant deals and some really cool stuff to play with.







Tuesday. we did a Facebook live with some Lavinia goodies - another brand I absolutely adore. What a pleasure to do one of their shows.


Wednesday, I was back in the studio with my let Leonie loose. What a cracking line up. Two of mixed media greats, Dyan and Dina on one show!! Marvellous. We also squeezed in a cheeky Stamperia sale show, which was rather nice.





Thursday saw the launch of myself and Mandy’s company - Art Inspirations - brand new stamps. We were thrilled to introduce a brand new artist to our company, Rodrigo Assi. I absolutely love his work. He has a cool, sketchy style. And the stamps turned out spot on. As usual, our design team went above and beyond. Their samples were incredible. I also had a Chameleon pens show. I do love their pens, and they looked great on my ghost stamp!!





Friday….a day off. I caught up on jobs and then went to visit the lovely Sarah Milsop - we had a lovely evening catching up, and planning!!











I’m now back up north. Today I’m meeting up with Half Rice (haha) - Lou Withers. She’s showing me the venue she uses in Manchester to see if it’ll be good for our workshops. Fingers crossed. We have a couple of venues planned already - they’re coming together nicely. We’ll announce them soon and release the tickets. I’m so excited about getting them underway. 


And then of course, I’ll be popping onto Facebook at 7pm, for our live. I have a plan….so I hope to see you there xxx
