*New* Papercraft Company Studio Opens its Doors.
Well I needed to be out and about over the weekend and I needed to be free to be by myself, no kids, no husband, don’t know why, just had an itch that needed scratching. I was tired and frustrated after a week of ups and downs so I headed off to the Papercrafts Studio, owned by the lovely Fee, in its new location in Alexandria, Dumbartonshire.
Fee has a new unit at Lomond Industrial Estate and its HUGE. The new place has enough room for the shop, 2 classrooms and a massive crop room upstairs, its brilliant!
The ouber talented card makers Kerry and Karen ran make’n'take card classes over the weekend and what gorgeous cards they were, not once did I manage to do one of them haha but such is life. Saturday was very busy and I really enjoyed being there so I went back Sunday.
I spent time with all the girls, Izzy, Sandra, and the new Gran to gorgeous baby Jack, Val. Congratulations to Lauren and Raymond on the safe arrival of their son. I wish you all much health and happiness.
How nice it was to spend time with them. I met the lovely Sharon who was helping Fee too and all round had a lovely time and managed to be a little help. I came home Sunday night feeling more like myself and ready for the week, I call that a result.
The shop is open Friday, Saturday and Sunday for the time being with card classes all ready scheduled and Scrapbook kit classes planned and almost ready to roll. Check http://www.thepapercraftcompany.co.uk for details.
There was a gorgeous range of ‘Fancy Pants’ chipboard, stamps, overlay’s and papers on display in the studio shop and as I completed this layout last week using some of those fab glitter overlays from ‘Fancy Pants’ and my ‘Garden’ range of acrylic stamps, It seemed appropriate to share that one now. This photograph was taken almost a year ago as Chelsea went to her first ‘proper’ school dance at the end of her primary school years and headed for high school. Its been an amazing year for her, she has done so well. (She is in the red dress and black lace shawl) I have many pictures of her on her own and this one needed to be added to her album as it is all the P7 ‘Glamour Girls’.
Hope you enjoyed the bank holiday weekend too.
Until later xx ….
