Here's a pic to help you sort out some stash to bring.

Next Crop - 17th April

Apologies for the delay in posting its been a busy couple of weeks and we've not had much time to create a project so instead we'll use a pagemap. I've chosen something to represent Spring that uses lots of flowers, so bring along your boxes of flowers, punches, dies etc and we'll create some cheerful layouts. If you want to do a less girly theme, instead of flowers use different sizes of punched circles and brads. See you all on Sunday.

Date Changes

A couple of crop date changes for you.

Because the Isabella Centre has a booking for the large hall on the 17th July we have decided to move the crop to the 24th July.

The 12 Hour Crop has also been moved from the 8th to 15th October as some of our regulars weren't able to make it on the 8th.

We will be posting details of the 12 hour crop over the coming weeks with registration starting at the next crop, don't forget to get the 15th October marked in your diaries.

See you all soon.. Jackie and Chris
