Craft Fair at Morley Town Hall May 8th

Well did the stall last Saturday at Morley Town Hall I was not able to get there till 10.15 my friend Annemaritta got there at 9.45 and it started at 10 so that was slightly embarassing:)
There was 2 other card stalls one right at the side of us so that was not great.  We had a few people who already make cards as usual so that is why I only took supplies with me as I learned from the last stall that cards do not really sell well.  I did not sell much at all, the stall was £18 and I don't think I took my share of the stall so that was a bit disappointing but anyway it was an achievement having ME. 
I sat making decoupage toppers it passed the time nicely and before we knew it was 2.30 and time to pack up.  Here is picture of me at the stall.

Big Shot Express - Dream Machine!

My friend bought a Big Shot Express machine for a bargain price of £70 I only wish i waited now to decide which was best but I do like the cuttlebug anyway and I am going to try and resist to buy the Big Shot if there are any left at that price or speak nicely to hubby this weekend - not sure which!

Here are some of my creations so far

A Plate
B Plate
Brass stencil
Card/paper
A shim ( I used cardboard piece)

Cuttlebug Advice and Tips

There is a good group on UK Scrappers which is for Cuttlebug users so join it if you have just got one and want to know how to use it etc

Great Site!

What a fantastic site this is Craft Superstore
They have cuttlebug folders on offer and the cuttlebug is cheaper than I got mine.
Always the case when you buy things but shows the value of shopping round instad of been hasty like me:)
