Another crop over

but with just 3 weeks (yep just 20 more sleeps) before our December Christmas crop you can't be gloomy for long.

Now keep your eye's peeled for news, challenges etc cause we like to push the boat out for our Christmas crop. Oh and please keep your fingers crossed for NO SNOW.

For those that want a peek

before crop day.

Nov Class LO

So what do you need to bring for tomorrow? 

Two portrait 6" x 4" photos to complete the class LO and a heat gun/setting tool if you have one. 

Some pennies for those 'must have' products that slip into your shopping basket.

Lunch and tea although there is always the pub, chippy and good old Tesco near by.

Some crafting to keep you occupied, happy and out of mischief for the day.

We'll provide the class kits, fab shop oh and course the tea coffee and squash aplenty.

One more sleep ....................

See you in the morning

Are you ready?

It's just 3 more sleeps 'til crop day!!!!!!!! 


So we thought we'd share another sketch challenge LO. 

Nicola's LO we think is simply beautiful.

So we've be wondering, do you want to see the class LO on the blog? Or do you want it to be a surprise to be revealed on crop day? Have your say by commenting here on the blog or on our Facebook page and we'll go with whatever the majority say tomorrow. Could be interesting.

Check out

this month's kit.

Here's what your kit will include;


Crate Toy Box Collection Accent Cuts 12" x 12"
Crate Toy Box Collection 'Build' 6" x 12"
Bazzill 12" x 12" Cardstock
1/2 Tube of Karen Foster Designs Crazy Coil Brads (approx. 20 brads)
Plus a piece of Creative Imaginations Real Wood (colour may vary from piece in the photograph)


In addition there will be American Crafts Zing Embossing Powder (Mustard) and Maya Road Mist (Dark Cornflower Blue) available as a class supply.


To complete the class LO you will need your basic tool kit plus a heat gun for embossing would be useful although there will be several available to use if you don't have one.

It's only fair to warn you

shop is going to be with us this month and they have LOTS of fabulous new products/ranges in stock that we're sure are gonna seriously tempt you! So save a few pennies for the end of the month, you'll be be pleased you did. 

In other news we'd like to give due warning that there's a whole lotta tearing, cutting, misting and embossing gonna be going on in month's class! You'll need 2 photos (6 x 4" Portrait), the kit has a definite leaning towards boy photos and B&W photos especially work with the kit. 

Check out the peeks of Eileen Class LO, we hope it helps you choose you're photos.

Catch you later.

Has that got you intrigued? Well we'll be sharing more in the coming days so keep watching.

Chilly days, dark days, cropping days!!

Dear Create & Co Cropees, 

Well, with a decidedly down turn in the weather, cold mornings, dark evening and misty days, there is now doubt it is November and that means we are now in the build up to our November Crop so we need to know if you are coming so that we can get everything organised - could you please reply to this email as soon as possible to let us know if you can make it or not,  it would be a great help.  

If you no longer wish to receive emails or attend the crop - could you also let us know please as we do have a waiting list.

We are at our usual venue this month, the lovely Pavilion at Martlesham Heath on November 26th.

We have a lovely class for you this month which is being taught by Eileen - further details about this will follow soon.

We hope that ScrapaGoGo will be able to bring the shop along this month - there are LOTS of fabulous new products and ranges in stock and there  may be a special offer or two - details will follow as soon as we can confirm.

Due to space limitations, the 2nd hand sale opportunity will not be available this month, but hopefully will have this feature again in the New Year.
