:( sorry

sorry ladies I would have added you a slide but it looks like my pc is going awol today so here is as many as this thing will let me put on one page hahaha!

First we have mulan, this is a great range full of reds, blacks and whites! love it.

Also what piggy tales has done this time around is, thinking of the card maker and the problem we have with patterns being too big, they have printed the same pattern that is on the front but smaller on the back!! Great idea no?

A VERY QUIET SNEEK PEEK!

Hi all, why quiet? well after celebrating my birthday yesterday I feel like rubbish, I am ill!! Ok i may have drunk far too much last night, but on top of that I really am sick! You know when you get that pain that you know might kill you, that was me this morning LMAO! OK so on to much more fun things, I took jack to the Hospital today and his is now plaster free!! And they let me keep it! how weird is that even for a scrapbooker? He is finally all fixed and ready to run riot again. So ladies visiting the shop watch out!
Also next Friday my 11 year old sister has organised a fun night in aid of a charity which is very close to the family, Children's LIVER DISEASE FOUNDATION, so if any of you ladies fancy a good night out with the family and help raise money for a good cause, tickets are available from the paperdolls now!! We can promise you a disco, raffle, laughter and because it is being held in the Griff and coton club, Nuneaton, a drink! So dust off your glad rags and come and join us for big yellow Friday.

Really the next few weeks and months are going to be so exciting with Paperdolls starting a new scrapbooking kit club along with more card making classes! I know that everyone that has already attended one of our workshop days loved it, so if you did miss out book early for the next ones! More information on all of them coming soon, but first :) I would like to introduce some of the products that will be coming soon from the GLITTER GIRLS for all you cardmakers!

First off we will have in stock from next week (fingers crossed) the new glitter girls CD ROM. this is a great add on to the already popular glitter girls line, which is used with the dress to impress board. You can make bears, dogs, cats, and many more diffrent cards all in a easy to use CD. It really will have you crafting for hours!

Also from the girls we will be stocking the exciting seven deadly sins range! here is what they have to say about it:

1st in the Series - Seven Deadly Sins Wonderful new decoupage sheets designed specially to fit the Bookatrix Boardfrom Keepsake. 7 ladies depicting the Seven Deadly Sins in glorious rich and vibrant colours , with flowing gowns within a lovely setting , allcleverly set on a Bookatrix page. These captivating pictures virtually ’dance’ off the page and each comes with additional extra greetings panels and verse that has been set onto the page. To make the completed Bookatrix card we have added a pack of Glace Glitter Card in the correct colours to match the 7 deadly sins , these glittering pages sit behind the main page and add that touch of luxury which completes these truly stunning Myth and Magic Bookatrix Cards- this beautiful glitter card does not ’shed’ its glitter as it is captured under a clear top film -so that the glitter has an ’iced’ effect - truly stunning! There are 7 radiant colours in a pack and also included are neat sticky dots to complete the pack all for £19.99.

See you tomorrow for more seek peeks!

NEW CHA LINES!

BIRMINGHAM HERE WE COME!

Hi all, as you can tell im getting more excited by the day about the trade show that is happening this weekend! I really cant wait to see all of those new products in real life. Just to give you a taste of whats to come i'll add a slide show in a min of some of the new lines that we are planning to stock! and of course we have a few suprises too. All the pictures are from another site so hence the watermark.
Piggy tales new lines are already on order, they have been made with not only the scrapbooker in mind but also the cardmaker! all of these papers now have a smaller pattern of the back which is just perfect for you cardmakers out there! we also have new cardstock company called core-creations, this company has won awards at the recent CHA trade show in the US for best new design! Their black magic range is really whats got me most inspired! its a black cardstock with a textured finish (not too diffrent from bazzill) but the magic bit is, once it is ripped or sanded it has a coloured core!! will try and post a pic of that too ;) I cant believe no one has thought of this sooner. such a great idea!
Thanks to all of you that have sent your love and get well soons to jack, he is fine and still not in any pain, although if he hits me around the head with his plaster again in the night, it may be me that ends up in A&E.
Have a good weekend all and I will be back with lots of show new next week!

Hi all again!

Hi all now I know the post below should have been postedon friday but some how it got saved to drafts instead of posted so thought i would add it now before i updated again :) so I didnt need to rewrite all the info again :)
Today has been one hell of a day! Last night Jack decided to see if he could fly! and he didnt do it on the ground, no he decided to try out his new found skills from the top of the stairs. God that boy is crazy and a handful, but you gotta love him haha! Any way after far too much blood from his mouth and him not using his hand, oh and a bump to the head for good measure, we took him to A&E and our worst fears were realised, the silly billy has managed to break his arm!!! So I now have one 3 year old wild child in plaster. Only jack could do this, while in with the doctor he was playing, running around and using his arm just fine to play with the toys. The doctor decided to get him x-rayed just to be sure and its a good job she did. He was in half plaster last night, with us going back today to have a full cast put on in blue luckly! we had some fears he would ask for pink! Hes fine now just abit sore at times but my nerves are shattered. Hes not slowed down and still thinks that you have to do everything fast as slow is boring. eek! Kids dont you just love them. And im guessing thats another 5 grey hairs for me.
Today also we have had the cricut expression in the shop and I love it!! it cuts sooo well and can do so many things I cant wait to have more of a play tomorrow. Also in for those of you that have been waiting are the replacement blades for the provo craft trimmer, more trimmers, punches and ummmmmm................. oh MM noteworthy papers that are soooo nice!
ok gotta run jack is trying to climb on the table with this arm banging against it like a drum stick LORD HELP ME GET THROUGH THE NEXT TWO WEEKS!

LONG TIME NO CHAT EEK!

Hi all so sorry it has been so long but with the paper sale and all the great things that we are planning for this year keeping us busy the blog has fallen by the way side (I know terrible!) but i promise to start updating again as much as before from now on.

Oh and just a question for you guys can you hear the music that plays when you open the blog? how weird is that??? Im not sure how it got on here so have no idea how to turn it off LOL but scissor sisters LMAO! More than a bit ironic for this site huh?

So back on to all the great things we have coming your way over the next few weeks! tomorrow we will have a limited stock (alot already been pre-ordered) of the new keepsake board. Its a great board so i am sure if you are already a fan you will NEED to add it to your collection.

Also paperdolls will have within the next few days a cricut expression (a great new die cutting tool that will allow you to cut up to 12x12!!) and once it is all set up you will be able to come into the shop and for a small fee use it, if you already have a cricut good news for you too :) again for a small fee we will over the next few months be expanding our range of cartridges and be having them on offer to hire. So if you just need a certain cartridge for a project no painc we will be able to rent it to you. Also if you did want to buy any cartridges will be selling them on a pre- order basis! YAY! And i can assure you at the great prices you would expect from paperdolls.

On the home front we are all fine with the holidays over and the next lot about to start next week it does make me wonder if it was worth sending them back to school. OK OK yes it was worth it for those few weeks of calm ;)

any way enough rambling must dash and get organised for tomorrows Sakura day honestly ladies that have booked (and sorry if you havent we are all full at the inn so to speak) you are in for a treat!

talk soon
