September News!

Time to fall in love with crafting again

It’s the time of the year when nature puts on it’s very own colour show and don’t get me started on the pumpkin spiced latte’s.  Although here at HQ, September is known as Spider Month since all the larger spiders appear for their annual mating (for the record, we all scream at the sight of spiders around here).

This month, as always, marks the autumnal equinox (the time of year where the sun passes the equator, the official end of summer for us here in the Northern Hemisphere and the beginning of summer for the Southern Hemisphere) where both the Northern and Southern Hemispheres of our wonderful planet share roughly the same daylight as night.

In the small village I am from the autumnal equinox was always the mark of our harvest thanksgiving.  Not hugely celebrated outside of our village ( which is surrounded by fields for miles) and mainly in the local church, where people would bring filled baskets as a mark of thanks to the church.

September is also National Classical Music month, and we celebrate International Day of Charity on the 5th so look out for our charity card kits. 

Did you know that September is also the most popular month for birthday’s in the UK?  That said, we have some new birthday card kits for you to enjoy.

Also, inspired by all the wonderful September colours we have created Autumn card kits that compliment these.

Until our catch-up next month, all you happy crafters, stay safe x
