Don't be afraid in North Tyneside...

..if you are unfortunate enough to be faced with a scary picture of  me on a telephone box or back of a bus!  When I started Funky Hand I had loads of help from the Business Support Agencies in North Tyneside. So, when they asked me recently if I would be willing to offer my support to a new project they are running called The Business Factory. How could I say no!
Today, Ian and I took a trip to the The Business Factory shop in Wallsend to meet the boss and have a look around..I didn't expect to see myself looking back from the shop front or inside quite so large!!  Here's me with my scary TV smile portrait!

Ian enjoyed my discomfort fully and the consultants in the office had a good laugh as well.  I'm very happy to support anyone who will give help to people trying to start their own businesses, I just hope seeing me everywhere doesn't put anyone off the idea!!

The new craft CD is coming along very well and we are hoping to be able to bring more details about it very soon...just a few more papers for me to complete. Oh and the Digi stamps on this CD are just fab and I'm sure you're going to love them when you see them!!

Speak again very soon

Create & Craft TV Tuesday 11am..I'll be there!

Just a real quickie post as I wanted to let you know that I'll be on Create and Craft TV live on Tuesday 13th at 11am, demonstrating the latest Funky Hand CD Dreams Come True again.

If you haven't seen what the latest CD can do try to tune in, and if you have..watch just to see how many times I can mess up!! But mostly it's a great opportunity to see the demo cards that my fabby Design Team Funkettes have created.

I can let you know that the desigining for the next craft CD is going pretty well and I hope to be able to give you more info about a release date for it right here in the near future.

Having trouble coming up with a name for the CD though..perhaps you could help me out with that? There isn't a particular theme as you know about Funky hand CDs so just something funny or clever would be great!! I'll make it worthwhile with a free copy of the new CD if I use any name anyone comes up with!!

Talk again very soon.

My Original Workbox finally in the office!

I've been going on for ages about getting an Original Workbox for in the office as all my stash was taking over the work space.  So after three months of waiting (it was on a very slow ship from China!!) it arrived last week! Corrina was a complete star as it came flat packed with instructions that would confuse a scientist! but with my pathetic assistance she got the thing together..  I've now moved everything into it and this afternoon I will be using it for the first time starting my demos for the live Create and Craft TV show next Tuesday 13th April at 11am.

Get on me eh?!  I still wont be able to find everything I need and my goodness I found some scary craft stuff amongst my stash as I was sorting it out.  It's strange what you will buy and then completely forget about!!

Speak again soon.

Time for a new Challenge on Get Funky

Congratulations to the winners of last months voucher and blinkies on the Get Funky Challenge for the March challenge.  You made it very difficult for Dolly to decide on a winner as all the entries were so good.

I've been a very bad team member this month and haven't had a chance to join in with this months challenge from Kathy. (I'll tell you more about what I've been up to in a future post!) The theme is April Showers and you must get over to Get Funky to see the wonderful examples thast the design team have come up with for this challenge.  I've been naughty and 'borrowed' two of the DT samples to wet your appetite.  Join in and win £20.00 to spend on Funky Hand products from my website www.funkyhand.com

Speak again very soon
