Time is just flying by at the moment. We’ve all been very busy here at Craftsite. I got the designs finished for nephew’s wedding stationery and the bride made her selection. I’m doing the proofs this weekend and then, hopefully I’ll be swinging into full production. I’m really going to enjoy doing them. It’s so long since I made any wedding stationery.
Also made a birthday card yesterday for my grandson who is into rugby. He’s also into sailing and canoeing so I’m always on the lookout for card making toppers and decoupage on those themes for the following year. I always grab a suitable one as soon as it comes in as suppliers are always discontinuing one design and bringing out different ones and by the time it comes around to his birthday the one I wanted might be sold out.
We have a few more Christmas items come in which I am trying to get on the website for early next week. I’ll let you know when they are loaded up.
I’m also desperate for a good clear out. It’s just trying to find the time. There’s always so much I want to do and never enough time. I feel more special offers coming on…………..

We have just added 9 new card making projects to the gallery. There’s a wide range of projects from the quick and easy makes to ones that take a little more time. There are male birthday, female birthday and Christmas cards amongst the new projects – all with easy step to step follow instructions that you can print out from your PC and have to hand when making the cards.
There’s no doubt the Craftsite’s customers start Christmas card making early. August saw a big increase in all sorts of Christmas card making goodies which just gathered momentum as the month went on.
The runaway best sellers were the Textured Impressions Christmas Set 1, the Baubles embossing folder and the Noel embossing folder. A very close second were the Christmas decoupage card making kits, with all 4 doing very well, and the Christmas 3D embellishment packs and Christmas packs of 36 die cut packswith the penguins being the favourite in each pack size.
The Cuttlebug and Big Shot are now neck and neck with neither die cutting machine outselling the other.
The biggest seller in stamps was not a Christmas one but the Viva Decor Big Corner Elements are new stock of these will be arriving soon. We’ll let you know when they are back in stock.
