Butterfly Week at Hobbycraft Tamworth Raising Money for Childrens Hospices

Hi peeps, just a quick one today to let you know that all this week Hobbycraft are raising money to help Children's hospices throughout the UK.  Hobbycraft Tamworth is supporting Acorns and have organised a run of demonstrations from talented local designers on a wide range of crafts during the week.

I have been there today and will be there Wednesday and Thursday 1pm-4pm demonstrating die cutting with the big shot and needle felting.

Here's just a taster of what we've been up to this week.

Here 4 U Hope U Know How Much I Care Boxed Card

Hi everyone, just wanted to share my latest new range to be featured on Folksy. This is a range of subtle, natural and recycled boxed sentiment cards, each box and card has a flower theme and a meaningful sentiment on it. I have gone for simple understated elegance with this range, so that the range can cover a wide variety of topics. Topics include but are not limited to, sympathy, gratitude, showing you care or just simply saying hello.

We live in such a fast paced society where so much of our lives is controlled by electronics... that its nice to slow down the pace and take time out to send something tangible and thoughtful.

In the blink of an eye I had a babe in arms who is now an adult.

Hope you all get to take some time out for each other this weekend.
