Sorry just another quick one I have to show you the card Ady did for mum's birthday, she stamped it then freehand sewed over the stamped image it's gorgeous but I think she may be mental

Hello, what you been up to?

Hi all, how are you doing? I was okay until about five minutes ago when the fairies hit me over the head and now I've gone shattered, I'm sorry for my absence I did a cybercrop with mum over the weekend, with lots of classes and I will progressively add all the pages we did to the website so you can have a look. It was mum's 50th Birthday yesterday and it was really good, Sam took her out for lunch and then we went out for dinner, had a bit too much Hardy's Chardonnay but it was absolutely lovely yummy yum yum, such a laugh, but now I'm really tired, and tonight I have to go shopping for clothes for Dave's works Christmas do, I'm doing a murder mystery with Donna tomorrow and the Christmas do is on Saturday, it's all good but it all happens at once I've done nothing all year. So are you all ready for Christmas bet you are you organised things I however am completely unprepared, but I'm sure I'll survive, I have something for Sam a couple of things for Dave but that's it, ah well might get something from town tonight, I hope all your festive plans are okay and remember you can set up a Christmas wish list in the shop and then just send people who buy for you in, that way you'll get what you want but you don't know who from keeping the element of surprise, have fun & I'll talk to you soon

Hello ...I'm not lost

Hello everyone, I haven't vanished I promise, what a hectic week we've had here, it's been absolutely crazy, new products, new offers, Christmas lights going up and loads of you coming to see us. Well last week I added loads of products to the web including some great mini book kits, albums etc which I know you will all love, there is a new Christmas card on the gallery for anyone still looking for ideas, and there is also a new on on the card gallery (for all the swats who have finished) using the Winnie the Pooh 12x12. Well this is just a quick note to say Hi and I'll come back later to give a bigger and better update, but Donna's teaching a Shrink Plastic workshop and they all look a bit rowdy to me, maybe I can placate them with a mince pie, Talk to you soon.

Hello Everyone sorry I haven't been around for a while I will give you a full update tomorrow of all things new and developments from the cupboard, it's been so busy, which of course is brilliant, we've still got new crafty items appearing everyday so if you still can't find what your looking for leave me a comment or send me some e-mails and I'll see what I can do I have been asked for Gift Vouchers recently we currently do these in the shop but I am sorting a way of doing them over the Internet, so they are available to everyone. I have put a beautiful card i the card Gallery that uses the Rub On creams to great effect if your still not sure what to use them for. Remember we are Open this weekend (18&19th) with loads of Bargains to get you into the Christmas spirit, we've put together some great kits at nearly 50% off what the individual pieces would cost you so if your looking for something for yourself or a gift for someone these are great, like I said I'll have more news tomorrow when I'm back in the cupboard so I'll talk to you then

47 Days till Christmas!! And still no pressie ideas

Afternoon all, well I'm still stuck for Christmas present ideas. not so much the girls but the boys grrrr!!!! awkward that they are. Well Today I have seemed to be rushing around but now I've stopped I'm not sure I've achieved very much. I've put a couple of new things on the web, blank jigsaws and the Making Memories Eyelet Words & Phrases. Now there is a sample using the blank jigsaw with A beautiful stamps happen stamp versamark and chalk and I love it, it's so effective and can be used for nearly any occasion for any person ever so versatile, and for those who like altering, you know paint cans etc well these are supposed to be very useful for that too Mum is going to have a go and show us what she's done. Message for Pat: you do make me laugh, your comment hasn't disappeared because I've replied to it but just in case you can't find it here goes, we do have lots of things that you could buy for your grandson and I'm surprised you don't know better than we do. Yes the twinkling H2O's are out of stock at the mo, but they are due in any day and we've ordered some fabulous new colours that are going to be so gorgeous and they are going to go fast so keep your eyes wide open. Well the boss has worked very hard this week her and dad were in on Sunday having a good tidy round and test of the Christmas Lights Woohoo!! They are all being set up for the 18th & 19th of November. For those who didn't see them last year come and have a look at our Christmas lights they are the best in Evesham (we didn't decide that everyone told us) So Remember the Weekend of the 18th and 19th of November as we are having Sales, Mince Pies, Make & Takes (Sun only) and possibly even a raffle (will see what I can do) and Christmas Lights Galore. Until then get your thinking caps on for our Christmas Card as a prize goes to the best one

Bye for now

Hello Everyone how are you??? I do hope you all had a good weekend, if you have any funky pictures of fireworks or bonfire's we'd love to see them, I think Mum's going to do some scrapbooking along that theme. I had the whole family round for tea after the bonfire and bless my little nephew, falling asleep in his beans aaahhhhhh!! Well with nothing else in the way (except Mum's birthday) we are officially on the rundown to Christmas, we've still got loads of Christmassy things in stock to make your Christmas cards or get everything ready for scrapping your chrsitmas. Whether it's traditional or contemporary we've got it all. Well loads been going on the cupboard today, chasing orders, making orders adding to web, paperwork, one day I think I'll be declared missing but I'll only be in my office. We've had some gems in today which are just enough sparkle if your not keen on all things glittery and I'll get them on the web as soon as possible, I have put some ribbon on today, "Dotty Art" it's just a nice simple 3mm ribbon with some metallic dots on gorgeous. Well the fog has descended back down over Evesham, doesn't it make the drive home interesting, must say though, I am bored with these dark nights already, good for the fireworks though. So I'm going to start packing myself up and pry Donna away from the Catalogues (just plain dangerous) and I'll speak to you tomorrow.

Thank Crunchie it's Friday!!

Wow, what a busy week we've had over here, it's been amazingly busy this week. I've added some new things to the website today I've added the Winnie the Pooh 12x12's which are absolutely gorgeous and which I use loads in card making which is great you just chop them up and you get loads of cards here is one, how cute is he?. I've also put some musical inserts on the web if you fancy putting anything like that in your cards, and the rub on creams went on yesterday which are great for ageing and distressing (just like mum really!). Ady has made a gorgeous Christmas card using the glitter peel offs I added last week so click on the Christmas Card Gallery Link to have a look. Donna and mum have been busy doing orders which means lots of new goodies for you and lots more bills for me (yuk!!!) but it's worth it for new things. Ooh need to say HELLOOOO!!!!!!! to Snufflebabe, her back's been giving her jip go we haven't seen her in ages and ages, which is fine because when she comes in she murders our duck doorstop with her wheelchair, I'm only joking get better soon or will just come round and carry you here, it's soooooo quiet!. Well I'm going to try and have a relaxing weekend , then again maybe not, we're going out for our Christmas do 2005 tonight as we missed it last year we're going to Ripple in Stratford, Chinese Buffet menu yummy yum yum, so I'm relaxing in the fact Mum and Donna have to be up bright and early tomorrow, so come on in and ask loads of crafty questions, no be nice really they are very good. Remember it's Saturday which means my Dad Bill will be around to make cups of tea and coffee if you're thirsty.

See You Soon

Hello Everyone,

I'm sorry I didn't blog yesterday, just me & Barbie (Donna) in the shop and it was ever so busy, same again today but I'm just leaving Ady and Mum to it Hee Hee. Well yesterday I loaded the Gelly Roll Stardust Pens which are absolutely great, not as fluid as the glaze ones but still give a nice sparkly finish. Today it's been the Rub On Creams now for those of you who don't know about them these are great for using after light box embossing to give a metallic colour and sheen, but also when you use them after sand papering your card or paper it gives them that great Basic Grey look, well I like it anyway. What else , ooh I will do my best to get some cards on today, but I'm not sure about venturing out my cupboard, I've been out to pick some orders and it was manic. Isn't this sunshine gorgeous, it makes the cold so much easier to live with but I can definitely feel the festive season weighing down upon us, if anyone has any present ideas like I've said let me know because I haven't a clue. If you have any questions please leave a comment send an e-mail or give me ring. shop@beecrafty.net or 01386 443399 or leave feedback on the web http://www.beecrafty.net/feedback.htm. Have Good Day and I'll speak to you soon
