Boy are we pleased it is Friday, what a busy week.  I know we call Ali the "butterfly" as she is always flitting around the office from one job to the next, but boy have we missed her and Tony.  We think everyone has decided that it is Christmas all at the same time.  I promise that we are all working as hard as we can on your orders, and they will despatched as quicky as possible.

We have spoken to Ali only very briefly, the hours of the French shows are killers, so there is not much free time to talk. When she rang yesterday evening she was filling the gaps in the ribbon cabinets with anything she could find, the van is too far away to restock from during the day. Friday is a nocturnal day they will be restocking from 8am and will not close until 9pm, yikes will she be hungry!!!

What shall Bev and  I give as a Friday FREEBIE prize this week??????  When we put together the EXCLUSIVE Christmas ribbons, way back in the spring we both had our "love" and "hates".

I just loved the tag ribbon, I could see the tags being cut out and used on cards, but it was not for Bev.

Bev's favourite was the embossed velvet, even now she can not resist giving it a stroke as she passes it in the aisles.

I think it is a bit too sophisticated for me! Although I would not say no to a parcel wrapped in it.

What's your "Love" of our Christmas ribbons?  Leave us a comment and we will pick a winner on TUESDAY.  Ali is back then and she will have had time to catch up, and she likes seeing the children in the afternoon.  No doubt she will have a little surprise or two for them, they miss her terribly when she is away.

We all wish you a happy crafting weekend.

Rachie, Bev and ALL the Crafty Team x x
