"Moments"

Here's a taster from Claire's next layout.




The papers are just beautiful as are the new paper blossoms.







Also today we had our Crafters Delight Demo Day and what a fabby day it was. Some beautiful samples were made aswell as a few people getting some hands on experience with the templates. In fact a few of you said you would like to try this again so keep you eye on the workshop schedule as we'll put something in there for you.

The Bag Competition winner for July will be announced on Monday and just a reminder to get your pictures in for the August competition.

May I introduce you to the work of our new teamie

"Claire"

(No picture of her at the mo but we will bring you one soon).

However what I do have is the first of 3 wonderful layouts she has produced for use using the new 12 x 12 papers from Crafts House and our Brilliant Blossoms that are currently only available in store but coming to a craft show near you soon also on line at beecrafty.co.uk

Plain pearlescent 12 x 12 in 9 luxurious colours also available here...

And here she is . . . . . .

I think you will agree the stitching on this layout really does set it aside from others and the delicate lacing is lovely. This is done using the Fiskars Border Punch

Title is American Crafts Felt Thickers

I think you'll agree the use of those lovely summer colours reflect the beach photograph perfectly...........

Can I just say a quick thank you to Claire and look forward to the next batch......

........and the next page should be here shortly

bye bye

Still time to get your photo in!!!

Hiya


Well as you will know by now we have a competition on the go to come up with the most inventie/creative photo containing a Bee Crafty bag! You have until the end of July to get in your photo's and the best one will win a £10 voucher to spend as they wish at Bee Crafty!


Can I also just take the time to say a big thankyou to everyone who came in for the Crafters Companion Demo day - it was a good day and was lovely to see everyone as always - The Demo days are done for you so if there is something you want to see why not let us know and we can try and work in a Demo day suited for you!


Also if a Demo day isn't what you want and would like a more hands on approach why not try a workshop - again we can tailor these to you. This way the products are at your fingetips with a wide range of hints and tips proving valuable to every crafter.


hope you're all keeping well


take care

More new things

Hey everyone hope you are OK!

So then have you seen the new things? Well here's a couple for you - new Chipboard letters numbers and shapes - you can find the category here and tomorrow I will be loading more onto the page for you to see - it seems we can't load the new products on as fast as they are turning up at the moment but we're getting there!

Decoupage anyone? OK so as you know we have a huge range of decoupage and at the moment we have some half price cut heaven packs in from the Jolly Nation ranges.

we have had some fantastic entries for the Bee Crafty bag competition - keep them coming in - as I said before its the best - most inventive picture judged by the other businesses within the park where Bee Crafty is located.

Hope you are well

£10 Voucher for Bee Crafty Anyone?

Hi everyone

So then who fancies winning a £10 voucher to spend on anything you like in Bee Crafty?

Well we will be running a monthly competition and all you need is a Bee Crafty bag! Now this probably sounds a little silly however take one Bee Crafty bag (any size plastic or linen) as long as it is one with our bee on it then its useable. Take a photo of the bag somewhere exciting (like on your holidays) and then send it to us via the contact us page on the website.

Every month the photo's we receive will be judged by another business on the park we are located at and then the best one will receive a prize. This time the prize will be a voucher - now we are half way through June already so the first judging won't take place until July and of course we will put the picture on the blog of the winner!

I will try and do some "examples" the main thing is be creative with where and how you photograph your bag.

Also

CRAFT ROBO DEMONSTRATION THIS SATURDAY - 20TH JUNE

Take care
