Spring Fling is almost here
I cannot believe how quickly these retreats come around. One minute I am talking about 12 months away and the next they are in a couple of weeks!
The Spring Fling is now in two weeks time and I think everything is finally ready!!
The shop is overflowing with goodies including new stock too of flowers, dimensional tiles, laser cuts and all sorts of gorgeousness
The class kits and workshop kits are being put together by my wonderful Canberra crew who work like Santas elves for love not money.... :)
And the ladies are all pumped and ready for an awesome retreat!
We have gifts, sponsors and prizes ..... and thankfully 23 shops that have given us discounts from all around Gold Creek for hte ladies shopping pleasure!
Everything is going to plan!
So today I will be getting all the of the retreat stuff inside and make lists to assist my Canberra Crew in packing the goodies, I will cook ready to feed them tomorrow and somewhere I will find the time to wash my top to wear to the 80s night tonight where I will dress up in a rahrah skirt and pink leg warmers!
Busy - yes
Frantic - sometimes
Enjoying life - hell yeah!!
Lots of love

New kits and the Tattered Inspirations Shop will have a sale 20th to 24th May!!
Have you every felt totally inundated - of course you have - you are a woman, you work hard, you excercise or do hobbies or both, probably a mother or grandmother and you are trying to fit everythign and everyone into your busy life. Yep that was me this month. I felt overwhemed and totally out of control.
So thankfully my wonderful Design Team are always here to back me when things go a bit hard here - and we brought out the newsletter late because I didn't really have time to do anything else.
But again what a newsletter it was! 10 pages (rather than the usual 14 - something had to give) full of gorgeous inspiration and delight. I love how my team creates in different and unusual ways with the products and kits I make. And I am so happy that it brings so much happiness to others too.
Here are the new kits for this month - all six of them

Mini Scrapbook Kits
Has creating a page ever been easier ??? Just pick your photo, some lovely pattered paper or cardstock nad some adhesive and away you go to creat a gorgeous unique layout. Use your imagination or refer to our newsletters for inspiration..... and have some fun with it! You will find they are so easy to use and really rewarding because everything goes together . No more worrying or rifling through your craft stuff - and may I say - perfect for retreats!
 |
| A gorgeous subdued coloured kit with awesome ephemera |
 | ||
| A terrific kit for a man or medieval layout great colours |
This kit brings the bst in Art Nouveau and mixes it with
gorgeous handmade lace and embellishments
Card Kits
These card kits are great value they make 3 cards and include the cards and evelopes plus lots of gorgeous embelishments and ephemera.... all you need to add is some patterened paper, adhesive and your imagination!
 |
| A card kit with a real feminine touch - and a 1950's lady too |
 |
| For the men in your life lots of great embellishments |
 | ||
| Isn't this the cutest - it is my favourite kit for this round |
Vintage tiles now on sale!!
Our winderful vintage tiles are now on sale as they are being replaced by dimensional wooden tiles - out in October! These are lovely embellishements and are now at cost price. There are heaps to choose from but once they are gone they are gone - so be quick they won't last long at this price!!
Vintage Lace
Hand dyed vintage lace is always a big seller so I have added more to the vintage lace stock.... this is the last lace of this type adn new lace will be added in October. So pop in and have a look - lots of gorgeous patterns and textures with over 1 metre total of the lace and 5 different types. Please note that the dyes I use are waterbased and cannot be laundered which makes them unsuitable for wahing or clothing - however they are awesome for creative people and items like bags perhaps that will not be washed!! At $5.50 I don't think you will find more beautiful lace at such a good price!
Vintage Blossoms
I hand craft these gorgeous blossoms using vintage laces, findings, buttoms and add them to materials which are of the bhighest quality to create these beauties. There are other colourways in the shop too - and have proven to be popular. When I get time there are more to come... but they look fabulous grouped together on a special page and really have the wow factor!
Look out from trims and bows in October which will add to the range!
SALE SALE SALE SALE SALE SALE SALE SALE
The shop will be on sale from the 20th to the 24th May
The coupon code is maysale15
15% off everything in the store including the on sale items
