New classes in Blackburn and retreats later this year.

Hello my crafty friends I am very pleased to announce that I am starting my Blackburn craft classes again this weekend. Sadly earlier on this year the shop I used to teach at closed down after 22 years of trading. The ladies who have been with me for a long time now wanted to continue crafting and so I have hired my local church hall and I am really forward to getting the gang back together. The classes are Scrapbook classes to start with but I will be asking my ladies to choose what else they would like to do so anything could happen. If you would like to come along and join us then we are a very friendly bunch who have a really good giggle and craft at the same time. You can obtain details by emailing me through the blog. I am also looking to organise a couple of crafting weekend retreats. I will post the details once I have found a venue. I want to do a Cricut one and a Bo Bunny/Copic/ Kaisercaraft one. If you are interested you can send me your details via email to melanieheaton@netscape.net. I will save your details and then contact you with more details later. So all in all an exciting few months ahead. All this as well as regular shows!!!!! Yes I am mad! Lol x Take care Melanie xxx

    being normal denotes a lack of courage :-) ... a quote from the film 'Practical Magic'

    Good luck with the classes Mel yet such sad news that the shop had to close. Hopefully the owners will find a new avenue to progress onto

    Its been a while since I said hello, but so pleased I have popped by I will be sending my email to you. I would like to come to the cricut weekend break and because I have all the Spectrum noirs and lots of promarkers feel I need to resist the weekend using copics I just know I would end up needing them too!
    I was looking for your cards using fo stiching techniques I have been playing with my new Slice fabrique the results from the vintage seasons card are very nice- the colouring as still to improve. Bye for now Anne x

      You could always come and bring your pens . It's about crafting and having fun, not about pushing product. Copics are just my preferred choice and it would be a pleasure to have you come to either retreat.
      Hopefully should have date sorted by next weekend.
