I Do Love a Box!

Hello friends
Firstly I hold up my hands up and confess..no photos of Ally Pally!! 
I'm so sorry - it was just non stop busy and each time I thought to get my camera out I was 
chatting and demoing again.
I got to meet some lovely crafters including some of my special blog followers -
thank you for coming over to chat, it was so nice to put faces to names.
My day seemed to be consumed with this little box....
Square Bracket Edge Box - it sold out completely! 
This festive version of the box is featured in the Make Christmas Cards magazine, 
it uses some of the free paper and a little tag.
Now that was a very speedy make!
I did manage to move away from my demo desk for a few minutes to chat to Marion Emberson 
(no relation!) from Sugar and Spice, Jennie Boxall from Artistic Stamper 
and Barbara Nicholson - all such lovely talented ladies. 
This week I'm back in my studio planning, creating and smiling.
Have a good Monday dear friends.

  19. Oh Christine, am I to understand that I've missed getting the Bracket top Box die you were going to have in your Amazon Shop??
    I have been away this weekend and unable to connect until today. In your blog you say that it sold out at Ally Pally.Glad all went well and you enjoyed the show. But I'm cosumed with dissapointment, the prospects of obtaining the box die other than from yourself is pretty grim.
    I will try and email you later today regarding the above.
    I bet you surprised yourself when you found all those lovely projects you had made and were able to take as samples. Hope your taking it easy today and just enjoying a crafty session in the Studio, its raining and miserable here. Crafty best wishes, Carolyn x
    PS Are you coming up to the NEC Hobby and Crafts event in November with Spellbinders??
