We're back and finally sorted

after a mad but enjoyable day at Stamperama. Thank-you if you popped by it was good to see you and chat :)
Here we are looking bright and breezy BEFORE the show started - we didn't look quite like that at 5 0'clock!!


So we sold plenty - put some stock back (that was Mondays job) and are now waiting for the new CHA summer stock to arrive - if you are too watch this space. Let us know what you are waiting for what do you have you eye on - leave a comment for us so we can check it out too

Finally if you missed us at the show pop over to our crop on Sunday 23rd August details are HERE a great day out for £15.00. We have a gorgeous mini book project for you using some new fab and funky Prima papers.


A quick sneak of the front cover - you need to come along to see the insides :) and the best bit -You can make it all up without photos and then add your SUMMER photos once we get the summer we keep being promised. If not maybe we have to change the year to 2010!! lol lets hope not.

Don't forget to add your CHA wish list in the comments
