BG SUGARED!




Its just arrived the first of the new collections from Basic Grey and It is gorgeous! The stamps are amazingly delicate and the papers have gone straight into my take home bag ;) You will be needing some of this collection, I can promise you. And we have it all the papers, stamps, chipboard, buttons (these will not last long with my new craze for buttons) and collection packs! I will be putting them online over the rest of the day, well give me an hour to have a play with it first and then I will be putting online hee heee hee.
We have also had in stock this week the white chocolate bunnies from Rusty Pickle which will be a must for all your Easter cards and layouts. With its yummy browns, creams and pinks it is a wonderful collection.
And last but not least we have the new Grafton line from scenic route, with its grungy summer colours you will be counting off the days till you can go to the beach! This range Will be especially great for young boys cards, as the colours are just perfect for it.

Now on to some PAPERDOLLS news :), you remember in the new year I told you to expect some exciting changes during 2008, well finally i can let you all in on our great news, paperdolls has just added another shop to our empire LOL, from the beginning of April we will be opening 3 days a week at our new lock up at Bedworth Market!! Imagine a shop but with no door and that's what we are :) I'm so excited to be able to take another step towards world domination lol!!!!!

and even more excited to be able to offer all our customers in the bedworth area a more permanent shopping option. I hope the during our grand opening (dates to follow) you will all pop along to see us :)



Now before I go I need to share something else with you, long ago (not that long I'm still a spring chicken) every time I turned on the TV, an advert would come up for a la carte kitchen, it was a kitchen like no other, in the advert the little girl got up and made her daddy some Swiss roll and beans for breakfast and I was so desperate to get this toy that I bothered my Mum day and night to buy it for me, well Santa must have been listening and for Christmas I got one!!! Imagine to my disgust when I realised the no, I wouldn't be making Swiss roll or beans on my Kitchen as the blooming thing didn't work!!!!! I was horrified and to be honest I think this is the under lying cause of my reluctance to cook now. I felt cheated that everything I put in that oven came out cold, I'm sure at some point I cried about it too. So fast forward twenty something years and this morning Jessica asked for a kinder surprise, now this little girl thinks shes going to get an amazing surprise and instead she gets this stupid little toy that breaks (along with her heart) every time she touches it. So that's it, I've had enough! next time that these companies advertise something that when I buy it doesn't do what they say its going to do, they are going to get an email from me telling them that they will be lucky if in twenty years time half the population isn't suing their sorry bottoms for destroying their childhood with false dreams and cookers :) LMAO! Had to get that off my chest ;)

ITS BIG YELLOW FRIDAY!!!

Hi all and a happy big yellow Friday :) Today is the children's Liver Disease foundations first annual day to help bring awareness and raise money to fund research into children's liver disease. Now ladies you all should know by now that we are holding a fun night tonight from 7pm at the Griff and Coton pub in Nuneaton, so if you are in the area and have nothing planned get yourself down there and I can promise you a great night out.
Also in aid of this we will be holding a special raffle to win some amazing scrapbooking and cardmaking stash. You will be able to buy these tickets for £1.00 from tomorrow on the market or come along to the crop and they will also be on sale there. This raffle will be drawn next Saturday (15th) at 12 noon at the shop so bring your lucky ticket along to see if you have won!
The crop will be held this Sunday from 10am till 4pm at the bulkington village center and for a day full of scrapbooking and cardmaking to your hearts content we only charge £5.00pp. All you need to do is bring along your projects that you want to complete and chill out while you do them chatting to other crafters and sharing ideas. Oh and we even provide tea and coffee in with the price! And seen as its Big yellow Friday, I will try and find some yellow cakes to bring along too. :)
We have also had lots of new stock both in the shop and on the market still, Paper nation aka Jolly nation is all in stock including their shrink plastic range, and die cut sheets.
