Aaaaarrrrrgggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am having one hell of a day!
Decided to spend most of the day trying to get these wedding invites done, I am doing them in stages rather than 50 individual cards, so up to today I had cut out all the ivory blanks and all the insert cards and to day was the day to cut all the pink and black layers! I've only gone and run out of black paper - AND - the bride is coming to collect on FRIDAY! Argh! Now I've got to try and pull a favour 2moz withthe paper co as their delivery schedule is usually 2 weeks!!!
To TOP that - I have just cut all the reply text for the reply cards and seen that the bride had given me the wrong reply date, I had cut 50 of the blinking things!!!!!
Still got to hand sew swarovski crystals yet!
I'm off to the Pub!
Sorry for the long one, but having a rant has helped!

Go down the pub and relax for a while xx
P.s Have you heard of encaustic art, i have been looking for a hobbie and thought i might enjoy doing that!

What is the name of your shop and have you got a website!
Simone, my friend had a go at encaustic art andit looked brilliant ithink it would make a great hobby. not usre how much it all costs though, my guess is expensive.
Don't have a website yet but if you go on www.docrafts.co.uk, we are on there as stockists, Prima Crafts, Sedgley, West Mids. Not got any photos on there yet but will have shortly! We stock nearly everything that Docrafts bring out!
Have fun @ the pub
Encaustic art is using an iron and wax and making pictures on cards, i had a go on my mums friends and really enjoyed it, even though my picture was not very good!

But something my mother in law would probably love - shes really into crafts and has made her spare room a craft room - she could open a shop with all the stuff she has! lol
I once made photoframes but all the bits I stuck on fell off LOL Never again!
Living in the outback I know how frustrating it is to run out of crafting stuff. Luckily a new shop has set up in Mablethorpe, however they sell cheaper unbranded stuff mostly - no docafts which I love!!
I considered making all Bronwyn's Christening invites! But after making nearly 50 Christmas cards and doing 4 scrapbooks before christmas I am having a little break and making only necessary cards!! Got 2 mothers day cards to do!!
Caroline, I NEVER run out of craft stuff, I own three DOCRAFTS stockists shops, plus we also stock Trimcraft, Sizzix, Crafty Bits and tons more!If you ever need any crafty bits, I would be more than happy to post anything to you! (at discount of course!)
