EXTRAVAGANZA NEWS - THE TRILOGY!

Hi Folks

Here is is my final post about the Extravaganza.  Sadly there are a couple of demonstrators that we didn't manage to catch photos of, and although it was our intention to take a few extra pictures Ian couldn't get our camera to work because the lens had jammed so my deepest apologies to anyone who is not featured

This was Beatrice from Katzelkraft in the pub with Michelle from Stix 2.  Michelle did some amazing things with pirntable canvases from Stix 2 .

Beatrice had lots of new Katzelkraft stamps and they were very popular. This was one of Beatrice's samples and we are really lucky to have an amazing display board in the shop with loads of Beatrice's samples on to give you lots of ideas of how you can use all of her lovely stamps

This was Beatrice's table so you can see how busy she had been.

Next up I promised a picture of Ian, he looks quite relaxed here but a bit disheveled because he had just set up all three halls,

Next up is Jane Collman.  Jane was working with My Paper World Paper Soft paints which come with their stamps and stencils and their unique "pens" to enable you to create your own dimensional embellishments.  She did a masterclass lass week which was full so we are repeating it in August and it's a great class if you want to have a play with the paints to see what they are all about.  There is a board in the shop which has lots of lovely samples and a colour chart made by Isabelle and Jane with all of the actual paints to show you exactly what the colours look like

Next we had Carol Cockbain's sister Cheryl.  This time she was working with Dreamweaver Stencils and  shrink plastic, Spica At You glitter pens and tiny beads  

Here is another view of the shop, you can just about see the 5 tills we had in the middle of the main shop.  We have got some new pictures of the shop which we will post at some point for all of you who still haven't been able to get to see us yet. 

Next up our very own Isabelle. You can just see Lexie just coming in through the door.  Lexie did a stirling job managing the staff down at the halls who were manning the coffee shop and looking after the tutors.

Isabelle was working with the PaperSoft paints, Inka gold and Crafty Secrets stamps, here are some of the gorgeous samples that she had and there are lots more things in the shop to inspire you. The little cups made from the Crafty Secrets stamps are truly scrummy

Last but not least is Chris Dark who was using Copic pens and the Green Bean Babies from Stamping Bella.  she made some wonderful samples and she has a class in August to help you to recreate two of her lovely shaped easel cards

I will be postsng picurtes of  Leandras amazing samples shortly now that I have repaired the camera!

That's it for now, see you soon
