~ August Newsletter ~

The newsletter and class list for August is out now! If you normally receive it by e mail it will be winging its way into your inbox very soon, hopefully this evening. The Newsletter offically announces our change of name from Create A Card to Maisie May Crafts.

It will take us some time to update all the stationery and get the shop front signage changed (if I can ever decide on the lettering style!) so please bear with us. I'd love to hear what you think of the new name so why not leave me a comment on this blog.

Happy crafting

~ Doodlebug has arrived ~

How gorgeous are these NEW Doodlebug papers?? I love them all ~ they are so bright and summery and look great on cards or scrapbook layouts.


Also the matching paper frills and glitter letters ( no need to worry about colour co ordinating) and the rub on letters are so useful and so easy to use. All are in the shop NOW!!

Great Day!

Today was Demonstration Day at the shop and what a day we had ~ very inspiring and lots of fun along the way! Thank you everyone who came along, I hope you enjoyed it as much as Maggie and I did. I know some of the Nestabilities, Hero Arts stamps and the corner punches sold out quickly so if you wanted something and didn't manage to get one, just let me know as I will get restocks of many of the items.

I'll try to take some photos of the cards Maggie made today on Monday and blog them for you.

I'm already planning the next Demo Day ~ so watch this space for details!

Hope you enjoy the rest of the weekend!

Bring on the Bling!

After so many of you have requested it, I have just got into stock at the shop some Bazzill Bling Cardstock and I have to say it really is stunning and is great for both cards and scrapbooking. I've only got in a few colours but if you like it I will get more colours in.
Also Kraft Kuts 2 from Fancy Pants is now is ~ everything from spots, stars, stripes, trees ~ and some great designs for the layouts for boys. This is a quick card I made today using the new red Bazzill Bling. It is great for Christmas cards!


And finally, Paper Flowers from Woodware, which are proving very popular!! At last a pack of flowers of different colours and sizes!!


That's about it for today ~ I am trying to make up some sample cards this week ~ so if you pop back in a few days I'll have more cards to show you.

Happy Bank Holiday!!

I hope you have all had a fantastic Bank Holiday Weekend!!

It has been gorgeously sunny here, definately a hint of a long hot summer on the cards!! Hope the weather forecaster I was listening to the other day is right!

To celebrate the Bank Holiday and Half Term, we have a "Double Up" week for you. Basically, instead of the usual 1 stamp on your loyalty card for each £10 you spend, this week until Friday 29th May you will be able to "double up" and get 2 stamps for each £1o you spend in the shop!!!

Lots of lovely new stock is now in including Daisy and Dandelion rubber stamps and Rub On Transfers, Whitewash Coredinations Card Stock Pads, more Woodware Trimmers and more Nestabilities.

Just a quick post tonight as I'm off to watch Britains Got Talent!

I was so excited this week when 2 deliveries turned up even the courier driver gave me "that look"!!! He obviously doesn't understand!

The new My Minds Eye papers from their "Breaking Free" and "Pretty Please" ranges are totally gorgeous. I especially love the die cut papers...can't wait to use them!



K & Co's new "Wild Raspberry" and "Que Sera Sera" were in the other delivery!


And to cap it all Daisy Bucket Rub Ons and some new Nestabilities!!!
