Free demo day - Vintage Chic - reuse and recycle!

A good bit of news! First we have a great free demo day planned for Saturday - New yummy goodies from Hunky Dory as well as from other suppliers all with a vintage retro theme. Be prepared to go home and be digging in your old sewing box to make cards. For refreshments we will have a little vintage tea party!

We also have an extra class next Saturday - Classic Cardmaking - really nice cards using great techniques - it is just for the afternoon and costs only 20 Euro. We will be making 4 cards. Places are limited so please book

We have a new (short) newsletter out - if you would like to get it - email me on kerry@ansiopabui.ie and I will forward it to you - well worth getting as it has a coupon on it!

Out with the old and in with the new

In the next 24 or so hours our website will be closing down temporarily. We will be relaunching in a few weeks with a brand spanking new e-commerce website with free downloadables, and much better functionality. I will be updating the blog and facebook page with progress and will have some fun blog candy and specials to keep us going. Wish us luck - all new and all exciting

Hunky Dory Coffee Morning - and a visit to Carlow

Just need cake added to that heading and it would be perfect - and of course we will have some of that tomorrow morning. We have the very latest products from Hunky Dory to play and demonstrate with at tomorrow's coffee morning including the new Hunky Dory project magazine which has so much free stuff added to it that it is probably free if you work it out!

For the rest of today we will be finishing off the kits for Carlow and finalising packing. We will have our mobile shop and a full day cardmaking workshop at the New Oak Community Centre in Carlow. The centre is close to the Fairgreen Shopping Centre (Tescos) and this is probably the best place to park. Another close landmark is Howseys Post office. See you there!!!

Chocolate and more chocolate

We are ready!!! Chocolate day is Saturday starting at 11:00. We have a free demonstration day with Phil and Kerry, and everything is themed around chocolate. We have the latest goodies from Hunky Dory, lots of new Nestabilities, fab packaging ideas, lots of chocolate of course and low fat (yes!) chocolate brownies to eat with tea and coffee. Pop in any time for a fantastic crafty inspiration day. Free gift from Hunky Dory for everyone attending.

See you Saturday.

Coffee Morning and Lemon Tart

Tomorrow is Coffee morning, and although I am not at work Kim has told me that we have had some really good deliveries today so we should have some fun bits to play with during the demo.

The Builín Blásta Lemon tart is ordered so please join us from 10:30 for a fun morning with the lastest craft catalogues, books and chat.

Free gift for each attendee!

Dublin Workshop 8 May

This week we begin packing the kits for our Dublin workshop. I will try and get some sneak peaks up soon, but if you haven't booked, and are thinking about it - I promise you some really great cards.

We have a few spaces left. 7 projects - including loads of the latest techniques from Ranger and Tim Holtz, Sizzix, Hunky Dory and more.

Our mobile shop will be open to all during the day in Dublin even if you aren't attending the workshop. For more information email me or give me a quick ring at the shop.

The Slash & Burn Easter Sale

When I was getting ready for the sale, a customer remarked that I had a slash & burn attitude, and the comment has stuck. Sizzix dies less 40%, stamps for as little as 1 Euro, decoupage at less 50% and many more great deals to be had. Sale is for just over a week and ends next Sunday. We are adding to the sale stash every day, so it is always worth popping over!
