Christmas crafting, baby!

Last month saw the launch of our Christmas range and this month will see more launched. We hope you are loving our Christmas products as much as we are.

For those not thinking of Christmas just yet, here are some other celebrated days to think about instead: you could make someone’s day on World Smile Day (6th) by just keeping a pleasant smile on your face all day – you’ll see that it’s actually contagious; or take things niiiiiiice aaaaaand slooooooow on International Sloth Day (20th); then there’s the totally awesome Back to the Future Day (21st) and an excuse to go into work in the 80’s gear you have at the back of your wardrobe…or you could just wait until Halloween (31st) and wear it then.

Whatever you are doing this month, we hope you enjoy it.

If you have anything you would like to share with our team, please drop us an email we love hearing from you.

So until our catch-up next month, stay safe.

It’s only September but we’re thinking…Halloween crafting!

August went by so fast, with everyone here being busy designing new Halloween card kits and getting ready for new product launches over the coming months.

There are some cool days this month, like Roald Dahl Day (13th), Talk like a Pirate Day AAAARRRR (19th – let’s be honest, this one is just an excuse to go into work dressed like a pirate when it’s not even Halloween yet), there is Hobbit Day and the Autumnal Equinox also falls on (22nd) and lastly it is International Rabbit Day (30th).

Going live this month we have our Halloween card making kits and our new stencils range being launched.

If you have anything you would like to share with our team, please drop us an email we love hearing from you.

So until our catch-up next month, stay safe.

Pick of the patch!

It’s been a very strange atmosphere these last few weeks, what with the passing of the only monarch most people have ever known. One of those major events that normal people assume will never affect them and get surprised that it has touched them. The news coverage of it was just overwhelmingly sad, I think it would have brought a tear to even a glass eye. A new era, for the first time in 70 years we have a King once again – the national anthem will take some getting used to at the next Olympics. With that new era, let’s learn from the past and look to the future.

Speaking of the future….spooky season is almost upon us again.

September is breast cancer awareness month, there’s World Snow Leopard Day on 24th, National Pumpkin Day on 26th and of course the clocks go back on 30th (I like to do the rhyme to help me remember: Spring forward, Fall back). And lastly, I guess it needs no introduction, Halloween is on the 31st.

In keeping with this theme, we have some cool Halloween kits to share with you, we still have our Autumn kits from last month and we have our new Autumn topper sets about to go live this month.

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

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
