*COPY OF EMAIL SENT TODAY*
Dear Create & Co Cropees,
September is literally around the corner now and that means just one thing, September Crop details will be starting to appear on the Blog and we need to know if you are coming along (or not too please).
September Crop Kit will include the technique of Dry Embossing and will be
designed and taught by Janice. Don't forget to check out the Blog regularly for peeks and'to bring' tips.
ScrapaGoGo will not be bringing the shop along this month so instead we thought we would have a 'second hand table' where you can bring along any of your unwanted craft items for sale. Please make sure the items have your name and price on them to make things easier for all.
Don't forget that we will cropping at a different location in September due to a double booking by the Pavillion;
The Church Room
Ship Lane
Bramford
Ipswich
Suffolk
IP8 4AL
Remember to follow all our news at:

Looking forward to hearing from you,
Eileen, Janice, Lorraine & Nicola

A HUGE thank you...
to everyone who came along yesterday and helped create a fabulous and fun day. We would also like to take a moment to say a big thank you to those of you that couldn't make it for various reasons but kindly sent along donations, popped in to buy a cake and ice cream as well as those that donated funds to purchase supplies etc.
A full break down of the day and money raised will be emailed later today or tomorrow as soon as we have those last few pennies counted and checked. We also have loads of fun photos that are being prepared ready to share too:D
We wanted to take this opportunity to highlight a question and confusion that has come to light recently, as we have so many new members we thought it a good idea to remind everyone of the minimum age of members and why this is set at this age.
As is the case for all orgnised events and groups we have to have suitable insurance, within the regulations of our package we are not allowed to have any children under 12 attend crop as a paying member or visitor (or any of our events). Our public liability insurance does not cover us for children within a teaching setting which the crop falls under.
We did enquire a while back about making the age lower (at 8 years) but this would have doubled the premiums and we felt that passing this cost onto members and customers would be unfair.
We always try our very best to organise and run friendly and inspiring crops and events, even more so for days like yesterday where everyone chips in to create a day with an even bigger purpose and picture. Above all we simply want people to enjoy themselves in the company of like minded people and do our best to achieve that.
If you have any questions about the information above please do email us and we will be happy to answer any of your questions.
Many thanks,
Create & Co

in taste and low in calories although it does have an excess of photos, which lets face it can't be bad!
You'll need a six or more 6" x 4" photos (portrait or landscape) that are suitable for trimming. Similar coloured or B&W photos will work best.

Plus Buttons & Floss as class supply and Class Tips
NB Colour options may vary.
