A Visit to QVC


Close friends will know I do like to watch a bit of selly telly if nothing else is on... it's inoffensive,
sometimes interesting and even brought scrapbooking to my attention over 6 years ago.

Just before we went away on holiday Kevin received a letter inviting him and a guest to a Craft Party at QVC in London. Imagine my horror... why him? I assume it is because he had bought a few crafty items in the past as gifts for me, including the Sizzix eClips he got last Christmas. I knew Kev wouldn't want to go, so after a swift phone call, they agreed that I could go in his place with a guest, so Hannah accompanied me to London yesterday.
We had a fab day, won a studio tour, I got lots of great photos for the scrapbook, lovely make and takes and a great goodie bag.
Even better news it appears that QVC are bringing back scrapbooking shows, and seem to be upping their game in terms of the level of crafting , more techniques, and less cut/pop out and stick.
And so on to a lovely crafty weekend for me... crops today and tomorrow Woo Hoo!!
