We are having an open day on Saturday 31st July from 10am to 4pm. Siobhan will be using a wide range of products from Ranger Industries including Distress Inks, Grunge Paper, Alcohol Inks and many more. For anyone who loves Tim Holtz’s amazing creations and products, then this is the one for you.
As usual you can drop in to see what’s going on and help yourself to a refreshment.
Rather than do a few deals on Ranger products, we are having a 10% Day. That’s 10% of everything including sale items and loyalty points for non-sale items.


We are now stocking a new range of die-cut decoupage called the Nitwit Collections. I am not usually fond of decoupage as many of you know, but I thought these were lovely. They include whimsical designs of sheep, bunnies, cats and dogs and a couple of cute Christmas designs. You can also buy the designs as clear stamps. There are co-ordinating papers to go with the whole range although I have just a few at the moment and the rest are due in soon. They are good quality and great for a quick card or two!! They are priced at £1.60.
Here’s a peek of a couple I made up.


The Rotary Club of Perth are having a fund raising event in August. Some of our customers have already donated some hand made cards to Jean Batchelor that will be for sale during this event. If any of you have any surplus cards in your box and would be happy to let them be sold for charity, then please drop them into the shop. We will then pass them on to Jean who will give them to the Rotary Club. They shoud have an insert in and come with an envelope.
The Rotary Club does alot of work with local charities, so any proceeds will be put to good use. We already raised over £500 earlier this year thanks to many of our customers donating rubber stamps they no longer wanted to keep. 
We are having an open day on Saturday 29th May. Siobhan will be demonstration some great techniques using some of the new Hero Arts silhouette flower stamps. These versatile stamps lend themselves to a variety of techniques which will make your cards stand out from the crowd.
The techniques include Brushless Watercolour, Embossed Layered Resist, Painting with Powders, “Kiss Stamping” and Water Stamping.
Pop in any time between 10am and 4pm. As usual it will be open house so you can help yourselves to tea, coffee and biscuits.
We have just had a delivery of new Magnolia Stamps from the Fairytales 2010 Pirates and Princesses collection. There are some lovely ones. I can feel a new display board coming on!! I particularly like the pirate collection. We also have more of the current Magnolia Ink magazine. Our first delivery sold out very quickly. So if you still haven’t picked one up yet, now is your chance. Well worth every penny at £6.99.
