Hello to all the mums out there, Happy Mother’s Day from me! Last weekend I shared my mother’s day card that I made for my mum and she’s received it, so all is well! So this weekend, I thought I’d share something for you to tell your other halves about, or your daughters, sons etc who missed Mother’s Day or have said “I’ll buy you something”,

Give the fun of crafting this Mother’s Day, come and spend either a day or a weekend crafting with Queen Pip Cards and our friendly, sociable group of crafters at either my Spring Botanicals Event or one of my Crafty Retreats.

Spring Botanicals is an all day Event 10am to 4.30pm on Saturday 2nd April where you’ll receive a project bag packed with at least £70 worth of products, plus a coupon to use on the day, plus lunch & refreshments AND 10 project designs to work on during the day. For just £80 per person, it’s a bargain not to be missed! You’ll receive the following as a minimum:

• Botanicals Bundle worth £46.75 (stamps, dies & designer series papers)
• English Garden Designer Series Paper half a pack (6 sheets one of each design)
• Cardstock for the projects
• Botanical Just for You Sale-a-bration stamp set
• Project kit items
• Bling

This is a small class with limited spaces (3 left) and you will need to bring your own die cutting machine that can take sizzix framelits. If you have a precision plate, that will also be handy but is not essential. RSVP now to receive payment details and guarantee your place.

If you can’t make the 2nd or just fancy a little bit more, then read on about my Craft Retreats.  Back by popular demand! Come and have fun from 6.30pm Friday night to 4pm on Sunday with my fabulous crafting weekend retreats. Price includes 2 nights stay at the De Vere Walbrook Grange hotel, all meals, all crafting sessions including all projects & instructions, fun games & prizes and a packed project bag with over £100 worth of goodies. Limited to just 16 people per weekend, it’s a fabulous Mother’s Day / birthday / Christmas gift, exclusive yet with a friendly atmosphere.

Here’s what some of my customers thought about their time on retreat or at my all day events…

Dear Pip,
I had to write and say thank you so much for a superb weekend and all the hard work
you put into it!  Well done on the venue choice too, the crafting room was fab and it was great to have the
walk to the main house to give a bit of separation to start and finish the day.
And finally a massive thank you for all of our Santa gifts.
The weekend was a great success and I really look forward to the next one!
Best regards,
M X

Hi Pip

It was a fabulous weekend, I don’t think it could have possibly been better. A great bunch of people, we all get on so well didn’t we, and your organisation was so good. I can’t believe how much we achieved (well some more than others, I have loads to finish off here!). D has already said to me well I hope Pip does another one as you enjoyed it so much.

Lotsa love

Can’t believe I forgot to say what a great day it was Saturday – I’m working my way through all the gorgeous stuff in the goody bag! I think that’s one of the nicest stamp sets for a long while. And as for the papers …….

Thank you sooo much for a fabulous day – I really enjoyed myself! Such amazing projects!

Love D xx

There is time before and after dinner to stroll around the gardens, or have a drink at the bar. It’s a very laid back retreat with comfort and fun being the name of the game – feel free to bring your crafting slippers and knitting or other crafts to while away your free time.

So, if you want to give the gift of crafting, or want to just spoil yourself, please just click on the RSVP links above and I’ll be in touch to confirm your place and discuss payment. I hope to see some of you there or at my other events over the year.

Take care, have a lovely Mother’s Day and I hope you’ve not had to cook the dinner! Thanks for stopping by, hugs, Pip x
