Friday 1st February

I made the majority of this is the card at our first Derby Dabblers meeting our first of 2013.  It was well attended and there was lost of crafty chatter and food too as this was our belated Christmas fuddle night as the get together had to be cancelled :( 

We welcomed 2 new ladies to the group - Gina & Pauline who joined us from the Long Eaton area

February Fuddle

Earlier this evening saw the first 2013 get together of the Derby Dabblers and it was a lovely evening.  Unfortunately not everyone made it and you were missed.

We all laughed a lot, caught up with everyone that we haven't seen for months and some of us even made cards.

We had a couple of new members and we hope to see them again next month.

The theme for the evening was time and flower soft.  Now we dont all stick to the theme and we dont all do anything at all but some ladies made some lovely cards.   Debbie, one of our avid scrapbookers did some wonderful pages.

Here are a few photos to show you how we spend our first Friday of each month

I think I managed to catch everyone.

If you would like to join us next month, please do, the more the merrier.

Happy New Year to all Derby Dabblers.

Coffee

As we've not been able to have a Christmas Fuddle this year due to unforseen circumstances - anyone fancy meeting for coffee at Little Eaton garden centre on December 22nd around 10am or will everyone be too busy?

No Dabblers this Friday 7th December

DERBY DABBLERS CHRISTMAS FUDDLE - POSTPONED

Unfortunately the Church Hall is occupied on Friday and we cant use it for our Christmas Fuddle.  A majority vote has got us having a New Year Fuddle instead so on Friday 1st February we shall have our next get together.  I shall miss everyone this Friday.

I will have to try and get addresses as I have lots and lots of Christmas cards for all the Dabblers.

I will post again next week.

Friday 7th December

Ladies,

I know its early but the dates creep up on me faster than anything so I thought I would send the email out and you can put the date on your calendar.

Friday 7th December will be Derby Dabblers.  We will meet up for the last time in 2012, the next get together after this will be February 2013.As usual
we shall be at St. Martins Church Hall, Flint St, Allenton DE24 9BG.

The theme for the evening will be Christmas stamping.  Bring along any stamps that you are willing to share, card to stamp out on to, ink, cleaners and
anything else you may need to make some MORE Christmas cards or even a scrapbook page in readyness for the photographs you will take.  Not a paper
crafter?  Then get out the bling of jewelery, the knitting needles or come along for a good old chin wag.  There will be lots of people to talk to.

Dont forget your name badges and a mug if you have one.

It would be fantastic if everyone that comes brings something nice to eat with them, sweet or savory and we shall have a Fuddle.  I shall set the
table up and you can just help yourselves.  If you cant bring anything, please dont let it put you off from coming along.

If you could let me know if you can make it, we will know how many chairs and tables to set up.  Hoping to see you in a few weeks.

Derby Dabblers Friday 5th October

Its the Derby Dabblers get together this Friday, 5th October.  We shall be at St. Martin's Church Hall from 6.30 and in the 3 hours that we are there, hopefully we shall all be able to catch up with all the news, its weeks since we got together.  I have been asked to show you how to make these Jubilees.
 
 If you can bring a sheet of 12 x 12, that will make 4.  You will need sticky tape and a crimper.  I shall bring 2 crimpers with me.

The theme for the night is autominal which will be a colour theme of browns, oranges and reds.

We shall also have a go at making a baby chest card like this one.

Please bring:

2 sheets of white A4,
1 sheet of Pink or Blue A4
Ruler, pencil and rubber
teddy or trains or pram stamp,
blue or pink and black ink,
scissors,
score board if you have one
pink or blue brads

If you have any of the punches, please bring them with you too but if not, I shall have mine.

Can anyone bring in some cakes/biscuits?  If so just let me know.  It would be appreciated if you could let me know if you can come along just so that I know that there will be enough of us. 

Really looking forward to seeing you
Tracey
