New Catalogues

Sorry I have been so bad at keeping my site up to date. So I will try and update a few things on here. Firstly are the 2 new catalogues.

The new main catalogue came out on 1st October and is full of wonderful goodies. I would make yourself a nice hot drink, grab a pen and paper and start drooling over all the new wonderful stamps and products.
You can view it on line here

Also Stampin Up have changed the frequency of their mini catalogues and they are much bigger now. The Autumn/Winter catalogue can be viewed on line here - I promise you that it is packed with very yummy products! Ideal for making Christmas cards.

Contact me to ask any questions or if you wish to place an order.
