A Year! Let's Celebrate!

Hello friends

It's been a while since I posted the picture of the coffee/tea cup -

for those of you who don't know, it means pop the kettle on - this could be a long blog post!

I realised yesterday that it was a year ago that I launched the Hope and Chances Website, 

the original blog post detailing it all is here.

I remember talking with my website designer saying that it would be fairly small,

not too many categories blah blah blah - well I was wrong!

It has grown and the boys can verify how many products are now listed as they've 

uploaded a lot of them - it runs into thousands!

I'm one of many many craft websites out there, I try to be competitive and offer extras but I 

realise the competition is fierce, really fierce!  Thankfully I have some fantastic loyal customers - 

I'm so grateful to you.

In 2015 the website focus as always will be on Spellbinders products, yes there are lots

of lovely new things on their way!

Also, I am still the only UK retailer to carry the entire Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L range,

if you haven't tried their products yet you really must - they are superb.

Before then, I truly need to make room so for a limited time I've got an offer on

all inky stuff - 50% off - yes half price!

 Distress Inks, Spellbinders Inks, Versa Color, Staz On and more -

Offer expires at midnight tonight.

Happy shopping!

Now for something crafty, that's the shop stuff out the way...goodness I'm waffling!

It was also this time last year that Elliott set to work making Christmas cards.

 He based his idea on the design below which is still one of my favourites.

It features the stunning 2013 Snowflake Pendant.

This card was also used for charity kits and there is a very small amount left - details are here.

I have some of those metal snowflakes left so any orders at the moment have one of those

placed inside along with other freebies - good to keep it festive!

Right then, I had better get organised for FDD - returning to my City job this week

after two weeks off - that could be a shock to my system!

Take care friends.
