Craftyduckydoodah! April Updates

Hello and welcome to April!  I hope everyone had an enjoyable Easter break.  So much is happening in the world of Stampin' Up! at the moment; the new catalogue is available for demonstrators and I am busy trying to forward plan for the next few months - this was part of my New Years Resolution!

So, here is all the information you need in one place starting with links to some crafty bargains, details of not one but two workshops this month and details of this years In-Colour Club options.  Its a long post so you might want to grab a cuppa!

Last Chance Products

The current Annual Catalogue and Mini Catalogue will soon be leaving us so, its time to stock up on your favourite products and maybe grab a bargain (or three) and save up to 60% on crafting supplies.

Discounts are available from the 9th - 30th April and as always, items will sell out quickly so be quick if there is something you particularly want/need!

Upcoming 2024 - 2025 Annual Catalogue!

I have my copy of the upcoming Annual Catalogue!  Pre-order for Demos starts on the 2nd of April and I will be ordering copies of the catalogue.  The new catalogue is very different to previous ones and is full or new items along with lots of creative hints and tips.

If you have attended a craft session with me or placed an order in the last 6 months, I have a catalogue ready and waiting for you.  

If you have not been to a class or placed an order for a while there will be a £5 charge for the new catalogue.  However, if you place a £25 plus order directly with me in May, I will reduce the total of you order by £5.

If you would like a catalogue please let me know - I will be ordering them as soon as I can.  All the fabulous new items will be available for customers to order from 1st May.

Introducing the 2024 - 2026 In-Colours

Online Exclusives

On the 5th March new items were launched as Online Exclusives - you won't find these items in any catalogue. One of the suites had my name all over it!  I love coffee, I love crafting and, when the two can be combined I am a very happy Craftyducky!  Of course I had to have the Latte Love Suite and I have had so much fun playing with it that it will be the focus of an upcoming workshop.

You can view/order all Online Exclusive items HERE.

Coffee & Cards

Coffee & Cards sessions continue to be very popular.  If you are unable to attend the regular morning session drop me a message as I may be able to offer either an afternoon or evening session for you. 

This year for Easter we made a card and an Egg Gift Box.  I was feeling rather generous this particular week and stamped/die cut lots of little bunnies.  Normal serviced was resumed the following week!

Join me for a fun and relaxed craft session using the Happy Plants Kit. We will be creating four adorable 6" X 6" frames with coordinated houseplant décor pieces. Perfect to gives as gifts or to keep for yourself.

April Workshop - A Little Latte

I LOVE this Online Exclusive Suite!!  We will be creating 4 notecards with coordinating envelopes that fit inside a lovely little envelope style gift box. (Hotel Chocolate selectors also fit nicely inside making a lovely gift)!!  

You can choose to use Lost Lagoon, Calypso Coral or Lemon Lolly for your projects (or mix and match).

For all classes and workshops please bring basic craft tools with you (bone folder, scissors, paper trimmer etc) if you have them and your preferred adhesives - I have limited supplies available for sale on the day if you forget or run out. Classes take place at my home in Godmanchester unless otherwise stated.

Full payment is the only way to guarantee your place as regretfully, I have been let down in the past saving places for people who have not attended.

Sorry, no refunds unless I cancel the event. If for any reason you are unable to attend, I will do my best to find someone else to take your place but can't guarantee to do so. If not, your workshop kit will be available for collection after the event (kit will include basic supplies but no stamped images as per SU rules).

Wishing everyone a crafty April!
