Stamps, Memories and Me

Customers travelled far and wide to attend the recent Kintbury Christmas Papercrafting show.  We were so busy I almost forgot to take a photograph!  However there was still plenty of room for people to look at all the products including stamping supplies, decoupage, stencils, stickers and lots more; and watch the various demonstrations from Karen and myself.  Any late arrivals will have seen an extra demonstration from my great niece Eloise!  At just two years old she is already showing a great interest in crafting and in particular Copics and fun flock!!!   The girl has great taste!!

It had been a long day with setting the hall up etc but  what do you think we did after packing all the stock back into the shop?  We made a card…although I must admit I feel like putting my head on the table and going to sleep!  We used my new Mistletoe & Mice stamp which we coloured with Copics!  This stamp is due any day (depending on Royal Mail)… and is available from my website as a pre-order.  Check out what my friend Jo made here http://joscraftycardcreations.blogspot.com/2009/10/sketch-saturday-73.html#comments

More card ideas to follow soon.

The Kintbury Christmas Papercrafting Extravangenza takes place this  Saturday 17th October in the Kintbury Coronation Hall, near Hungerford, West Berkshire.  We are open from 10am to 4pm and offer free admission.  We have several demonstrations including Karen Watson (Stamping Celebrity!!! as seen in lots of magazines and a brilliant card maker) will be demonstrating using the Copic markers,etc .  You are sure to be inspired by Karen’s fabulous creations.   

We have lots of new products in stock to show you too including new stamps from a variety of suppliers including Impression Obsession , Sarah Kay, Stamping Bella and lots more; new paper from Hunkydory Crafts, and loads more…

There is plenty of space to look around and the hall will not too crowded.

I’ll try to remember to take some photos during the event and show you some of the creations made by Karen etc next week.

If you have any questions or need directions please contact Wendy at wendy@stampsandmemories.co.uk

We will also be exhibiting at the Ringwood show on the 1st November and the Hobbycraft show at the NEC Birmingham from 5-8th November.  Hope to see you soon

Happy Crafting, Wendyx

Last night was our local Stamping Club evening and we had lots of fun making cards using the new SNOWMAN cards and stamps.  I will show you the cards I made as samples shortly including a waterfall card.
