Good afternoon crafters.  We hope you are well and enjoying your weekend.  To make it a tad more exciting, we have our regular blog candy up for grabs. First, the wonderful Hayley has been in, and donated a really cute Button Bat - not sure what his name is.  For the purposes of this post, we'll call him Bert.  Here's Bert: The second giveaway we have was donated by the brilliant Paul Church.  He's been making some lovely backgrounds, and also created a lovely stamped image for one lucky winner. As usual, the process is easy.  Just comment, and there will be two lucky winners. Last weeks winners were Crafty Clare, and Heather. Congratulations ladies.

Good morning crafters - how are you on this cold and frosty morning. I love days like this, with a crisp crunch underfoot and a clear blue sky. Even better when it's a Saturday, and we have CANDY!! We have two lovely makes to give away today. The first one is from our wonderful Katie Skilton - she's such a busy lady and has donated a really pretty give away, look at this: This will look lovely hung in a room, or sitting on a shelf. The second little bit of candy we have for you, is from the lovely Sixpenny Memories ladies, who also joined us this week. Kim and Debbie demonstrated wool felting this time, and made a really cute little gingerbread man pin to give away I think he's really cute! So, what shall we do this week. Well, Candy is a very American expression - if we were to anglicize the phrase, Blog Candy, what would you call it? The best two suggestions will win. Good luck :) Tune in to Hochanda every day 24/7 for lots of fun and crafty demo...

It's not even Saturday, but we have a crafty give away for you - and it's beautiful.  We hope you saw the Clarity shows yesterday, and Maria's demonstrations.  Personally, I love the Groovy plate, and everything that goes with it.  It's such a good invention, and the results are stunning. If you would like a chance to win Maria's card, then all you need to do is leave a comment as usual, here's the card that's up for grabs: I did promise to pop the stitching that I have been working on, but seeing as we have the give away today, I'm going to show you my progress tomorrow.  I feel I have got the knack of the French knot :) Tune in to Hochanda every day 24/7 for lots of fun and crafty demonstrations!
