That's Crafty Andy Skinner's Book Of Redemption

Hi everyone I was busy yesterday as I took some me time 

from family, work and the lovely chores. I went over to 

That's Crafty in Essex where the very talented 

Andy Skinner was doing a workshop. 

That's crafty is one of the most well equipped craft shop's that 

I have ever been to. It has the most amazing selection of

everything you could possibly want.

The Lovely lady (sorry didn't catch your name) who owned the shop

 went and got me some stamps that I had seen on line

but weren't on the shop floor.

This was my very first ever workshop having been self taught 

and my crafting has always been something I do on my

own away from other people to relax. 

 

I found Andy a very good teacher he was very approachable 

and helpful full of knowledge and of coarse he knows

 everything about my favourite products.

 

The other person who attended was the talented Mark Gould

also of Deco Art world and was the first person to

 introduce me to the Deco art Media range,

at the Artistic Stamper BBQ Birthday

 bash a year ago.

Did I learn new things about Deco art at the workshop?

yes I did I have never done image transfer before 

but now know how to used deco art products to 

achieve this amazing affect.

More to come from that over the coming year me thinks as 

my head is now full of idea's.

 

There are lot's of things to come over the next few months that 

are amazing. 

So I would like to thank the owners at That's Crafty and 

Andy Skinner for a wonderful day.

That's it for today folks.
