April - Anything Goes

Good morning everyone, I hope that whatever part of the World you are in that you are managing to keep safe and well. These are such strange times for us all, but I am hearing many stories that crafters are finding great comfort in their hobbies and I pray this continues until we see a light at the end of what seems like a very long tunnel.

We have kept the theme very simple this month, all we ask is that you remember that the focal element of your entries must be hand stamped and digital images are not allowed.............

******Anything Goes******

Onto some prizes.......................

Explore the creative world of Penny Black and see for yourself why our rubber stamps, stickers, beautiful papers for Scrapbooking, Cardmaking and Stamp Crafting are everyone’s favorites. Our products are designed to integrate style and color for creating the best handicraft projects ever.   

Afraid the photos of he prizes seem to have gone walkabouts and blogger doesn't seem to want me to add again!!

A message to all crafters

Good morning, I hope everyone is keeping safe and well during these unprecedented troubled times, it's all quite surreal and the daily news bulletins from all around the World suggest we are going to have to weather some stormy times before it improves. 

Amidst all that's going on posting a mid month reminder seems futile, but I know craft has helped many through difficult times in the past and perhaps now more than ever we will be grateful of our hobby to help us through and keep us sane. We as a team send our love and thoughts to everyone.
