Thank you!

We would like to extend a heartfelt "Thank You" to everyone for your support with our re-launch. We had a crazy weekend before the big night and worked extremely hard to get the shop ready, so we were really pleased that the event was well supported.

We raised over £230 for Northern Ireland Hospice from ticket sales and the evening was a great success. Since the actual re-launch we have had some lovely feedback from you all with regards to the new look, we're so glad you like it as much as we do.

But that's not the end of the changes at Crafters and Co, as you know we take great pride in inspiring our customers and hope that you go away from the shop brimming with ideas. So over the coming months you will see the shop and workroom become more and more of an inspirational place to visit and browse, where your creativity will be sparked and your interest piqued. This will be a gradual process as we replace samples and work on new projects, so keep your eyes peeled each time you visit us, you never know what you might spot.

On the theme of inspiring you will be glad to hear that we have persuaded Norma to give another one of her amazing demonstration mornings on the 24th March. This morning will be All About The Bug with Norma showing you how to get the most from your cuttlebug machine and folders/dies. She has some fantastic tips and tricks and we have ordered in some brand new folders for launch on the day so come along and have a peek. The demo. will be running from 10:30 until 1:00 so we look forward to seeing you there.

You might have already seen the video of Sara opening the new Echo Park papers (if you haven't we highly recommend you have a watch, the expression on her face right at the end is priceless!) and we can confirm that they are really are that gorgeous. The best part is that at only 85p a sheet you can treat yourself without feeling guilty about adding to your paper stash (you do have a paper stash right?????) There are five ranges to choose

from Little Girl, Little Boy, Be Mine, Springtime and Walk in the Park and it's hard to know which is the nicest (Ruth's voting for Walk in the Park whereas Sara just loves them all!)

Finally Ruth would like to thank everyone for welcoming her into the Crafters & Co family, she says that everyone has been lovely and it feels like she's been here forever. (We think she means that in a good way.........)

That about wraps things up for now, we look forward to seeing you soon and until then,

Happy Crafting

The Crafters & Co team.

Dye Ink and Pigment Ink, what's the difference?

Quick Quote: Dye Inks are fast drying, Pigment Ink are slower drying.

Dye inks are fast drying- good to use on glossy card and acetate. They are also waterproof when dry. This make them ideal for use with water colour paints, pens and some instances promakers.

Pigment Inks will remain wet for a time after you have applied it to your surface. This is particularly useful if you would like to use embossing powders to create a raised glossy or shiny finish.
