BAZZILL CLASSIC AND BLING

Hi all how cold is it today!! I am freezing, but luckily for me Ive had loads to do to keep me warm :) as we have had in today the rest of the autumn leaves papers (i know i know at last!) and also a huge amount of bazzill classics and bazzill bling! just looking at all these papers makes you want to get scrapping and making those cards.
you can find all the new bazzill here so be sure to pop in and have a look, the bling is especially tasty and just great for all your Christmas crafts.
Now as you all know it will be 20% off day here in the shop on Friday 30TH night and Saturday 1ST December, so i was feeling a bit sorry for all you customers online who use us a lot but cant get into the shop. So just for you and with the help of the magical smax (uks) i will be having a special code that will discount all online orders placed on Friday or Saturday with the 20% off too. :) see now i don't feel so mean. To get your code either have a look at your monthly email from paperdolls or pop back here tomorrow and it will be here.

BACK FROM A GREAT RETREAT

Hi forgot to post and say we are back, we've had a great weekend and the cottage was amazing all beams and weird art work! LMAO the whole house was just great with luxury's like a huge scrapping room and table with loads of room for everyone. And another huge table in the kitchen (that was as big as my whole down stairs i think) so we didn't have to clean up when it was time to eat. We had delicious food made for us by the talented Nina and Chell, underfloor heating in the bath room that was great on cold toes, open fires, and well i could go on all day about how nice this house was but i will add some picks for you to see for yourself. And of course the company was great we had a wonderful time and both me and mum managed to get loads done so we were really pleased.
Pop back tomorrow to see for yourself.

CELEBRATE SUCCESS



Hi all just popping on here to share our fantastic and wonderful news with you all. As you may have been told Paperdolls was nominated for the Prince's Trust Enterprise Award for the west midlands, the awards were held yesterday and much to our shock and amazement we actually won!!! I am still reeling and cant believe it, it is such a great achievement and honour to have won, In all honesty I really thought it would be just a good day out to meet some new people and celebrate what paperdolls stands for, I never in a million years expected to hear my name at all. OK OK I'm babbling its worse than a Oscar speech but I really am that pleased.


So here is a picture of me receiving the award, You will notice that mum is missing :( and without her paperdolls wouldn't be all it is today. But true to form she was keeping paperdolls running here while I was away for the day, making it possible for us to have accepted this award. And a picture of the award!
Also its been a bit of a hard week for us too, as my sister was taken in to hospital on Sunday and after days of indecision yesterday they finally decided that yes it was her appendix and took it out~! So Tash if your reading this get better soon, and make sure you don't hurry back to work too quickly so you can enjoy everyone taking care of you for a change. XXXXXXXX
