Cool Stuff

I've created a new category on Stamp Addicts called Cool Stuff. These are all new products that have just arrived and they didn't really go in any of our other categories : Slide Mailers single and double, Domino Keepsake Boxes (Vicky has made a really cute one of these which I will post on Monday), Easy Grip Handles for acrylic blocks, etc.

Also, my new Earth shoes arrived yesterday. As soon as the postman delivered them I put one on and Julie tried on the other one so I had to wait 10 minutes for the full effect - but it was worth it. The pain in my heal disappeared immediately. They have negative heel technology which improves your posture and helps alleviate back and foot problems. Hopefully wearing these next week at the NEC I won't return home a physical wreck, yes I will still be exhaused -they're not that good!

Hobbycrafts @ NEC

Can you believe the Hobbycrafts show at the NEC is only next week! When did that sneak up on us? Now next week initially doesn't sound too bad but when I break it down we only have 4 days to prepare for the show and half the stock hasn't arrived yet. I'm not going to panic just yet, I'll leave that for Tuesday (last day in the office).

The good news is that our new TV show Flower Power will be on Create & Craft (channel 661) this Saturday morning and we will have all the stamps from this show with us at the NEC.

I would love to hear your thoughts on our new show and any suggestions you might have for future shows. I will be posting up more of the Design Team artwork later - didn't they do a fab job?

I really ought to get ready for work now, the sun is shining but I bet it is really cold out there.

Ooh before I go I must mention a new pair of shoes I have ordered, I am still waiting for them to be delivered but I have very high hopes for these shoes. They are 'Earth' trainers and are supposed to be wonderful for the posture and all kinds of problems in feet. As next week I will be spending 4 days standing at the NEC I hope they work, they are the most expensive pair of shoes I have ever bought so they better be worth it.

Stamperama

Well the van is loaded and we are preparing to go and set up Stamperama Stevenage ready for your buying pleasure on Sunday.

The doors open at 10am on Sunday morning, unless you have tickets (you might be able to get in a bit earlier) and close at 4pm.

This year we have 32 exhibitors in total, a few of which are new to our show like Stampin Up and Newlight Craft.

As always we will have the large seating area with hot and cold refreshments available.

We do hope you can join us.

Bailey In A Box

Oooh this box is empty, what can I put in it? I know I might fit in here. If I can just turn around and sit down, pull in the flaps - there we go, perfect fit. Oh, how do I get out? Just roll over, that should do it.

This is the 3rd artboard for the new show from the design team, and the jewellery that I made using the mosaic tape, shrink plastic and some Roxs and beads.
