Craftyduckydoodah! June Updates

Hello and welcome to June - how can the year be passing so quickly?   The May joining offer saw three new team members joining team 'ducklings' and I know lots of you got some fabulous new goodies from the new catalogue!  The sun has been shining and, we are so lucky to live in beautiful Godmanchester by the river with lots of lovely walks nearby.

Every year the whole town becomes obsessed with a pair of nesting swans that return to the same bank each year to raise their young - this year there are eight cygnets!

As ever, there is a lot happening in the world of Stampin' Up! so, here are all the details you need in one place.

10% Savings 5th - 30th June!

Everyone loves a good deal, which is why we’re offering an additional 10% off all stamp and die bundles! Between 5 and 30 June, take advantage of the sale and add some new bundles to your collection. Plus, save 10% on the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine and the Mini Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. These machines make the perfect crafting partner for stamp and die bundles. 

New Kits!

Another two fabulous kits join our offering this month and will be available from the 5th June.  Have you had a look at my online store yet?  There are so many fabulous kits to choose from - you can see them all HERE.

Stampin' Up! Kits are perfect for new crafters, busy crafters or crafters who want quick and easy projects.  Our all inclusive kits have everything you need in one box; perfect to give as a gift or yourself.  Kits are only available whilst supplies last.

Coffee & Cards

May was another busy month; we used some new stamp and die bundle with some of the new In-Colours to create a 'z' fold buckle card using the lovely Flowers of Beauty bundle.  We also experimented with Wink of Stellar and ink to colour some pretty flowers.

We also used the Flowering Zinnias suite to experiment with another colouring technique that was inspired by a fabulous USA demo called Patty Bennet using Stampin' Blends with watercolour pencils!

Sessions take place every Tuesday, 10.30 - 12.30pm in Godmanchester.  The cost is £12 and includes all materials, tuition and light refreshments.  Classes are suitable for all level of crafters from absolute beginner to more advanced crafters.  Keep an eye on my facebook page for further details.

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. 

Flowering Zinnias

I love, love, love this suite!  We have used it for Coffee & Cards sessions as well as two workshops last month.  Such lovely images with so many different colouring possibilities!  Workshop attendees also loved it - look at some of the fabulous cards we made.

You won't find the Flowering Zinnias Suite Collection in any catalogue; it is an online exclusive item.  You can find this lovely suite and more items too HERE.

Workshops

This month we will be using a versatile bundle called Country Flowers for our projects.

When:  Friday 28th June - 7pm - 9:30pm, 

Where: Godmanchester

Cost:    £22

When:  Saturday 29th June - 2pm - 4.40pm

Where: Godmanchester

Cost:    £22

Projects are still a work in progress, I will share details shortly (likely to be two cards and a 3d item).

There is always a lot of laughter and chatter and we usually have cake too.  Workshops are suitable for all levels of crafter from absolute beginners to expert crafters.

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).

Share It Sunday!

Every Sunday over on my Craftyduckydoodah! facebook page there is a post asking all my crafty friends to share recent projects.  I do like to see what everyone has been up to, do you?  

Perhaps you have a crafty dilemma or have lost your crafty mojo?  There is bound to be someone who visits the page who can help you (it might even be me)!  Any type of craft projects would be lovely - it doesn't have to be papercraft so, please share away.

Wishing everyone a very crafty June hopefully, with more lovely sunshine!
