Hi everyone - Happy Easter to you all.

We have a wonderful spring day here in Dorset, I hope the weather is being kind to you also. You may have just received an Easter Surprise email from our website telling you that you can get a 15% Discount off all orders placed today or Easter Monday BUT.....

.....as you guys who read our blog are extra special, if you enter   easter egg   into the voucher section during check out you will receive a whopping 20% Discount - so go on and have a little look at some eggtastic ribbons! www.craftyribbons.com

Here are the last few goodies from our last Ribbon Challenge, they will certainly get you into the Easter mood.

This little chick is called Esme and was born last June, her poor mum sat on 6 eggs for 3 weeks but sadly only Esme hatched. This card is delightful Linda.

It is such fun using your own photos on cards, it makes them extra special. These cards are really special Linda and I would love to see a photo of Esme now.

You cards are always admired on the stand Natalie, they are always perfect!

I had to remove Natalie's card from the stand at the NEC last week, we had sold out of all the dottie ribbon!

The next three cards are from Margaret, we hope you are feeling better and back to "full time" crafting!!

Chicks, ribbons and eggs - just perfect.

Sydney took a shine to this card Margaret, I wonder why!

This was Poppy's first challenge with us, but she only managed one card.  She had a very good reason - her little baby arrived 11 days early and caught her by surprise!!  We hope all is well Poppy and you have all had a fantastic Easter.

Leigh has sent in a wonderful selection of cards - she has written on the back of this card "Sometimes it's the simple way".

Love the tags Leigh.

Oooh this is rather different all in blue - I like!

Leigh knows that I have a problem with cards (and stock) being stolen from the exhibition stands, so on the back of this card she has written " Please do not steal this card, purchase it @ the till?!". Good try Leigh.

I must express how sorry I am that these cards were not posted on the blog sooner.  I had planned for them to go on while at the NEC, but because of my stupidity of leaving my rucksack with my computer at home, they are late.

How could you do that you ask, well I have had rather a lot on my mind! We moved house the Monday after working nonstop for two weeks at shows, I had been packing boxes on the Tuesday night so had got out of my normal "leaving for exhibtion routine".  I felt so lost without it. 

Tony and I have been planning this move for almost a year, we have been having a house built.  So while running Crafty Ribbons, attending exhibtions, we have also been having site meetings. Life has been very hectic!!!! I am pleased to say that everything went smoothly, and we are "almost" box free!

If you will forgive me for my slackness - does anyone fancy another challenge? If so then keep an eye out tomorrow and I will see what I can come up with.

Enjoy the rest of today.
