Dear All

Update 24th October:

Further Reductions to Clear Stock

Well as you all know the shop is now closed but we still have absolutely stacks and stacks of stock left.
There is at money off everything with most items being reduced between 35-50%. So get your goodies now.

Orders are now back to being processed daily, those of you who have ordered before know that we have a quick turn around.


Please note that we are doing our best to update stock levels daily. You will be notified of out of stock items as soon as we process your order.

Dont forget that classes and clubs are going to continue as Mo and Maureen have bought this side of the business so check out the events diary to see what is going on.


If you would like to visit the shop to take advantage of the reductions, there will be someone there during class and club times. See the events diary section for class times and dates.


Just a further note for those of you keeping up to date with the details of Richards accident. He is still in intensive care and is likely to remain there for some time. He has made a little progress and is moving his right hand and has started to make very small responses on some occasions. We are all delighted and whilst we know the road ahead is not going to be easy, we know he can hear us and that is enough for now.

Mom, myself and the rest of the family would like to thank all of you who have sent messages of good wishes. We really appreciate them. Please keep thinking warm and healing thoughts as we feel that is it all working.

Hugs

Mo and Lizzie

Original Message:
It is with great sadness and after a great deal of soul searching and heartache that we announce the closure of Occasions Card Crafts.

Sadly the market is not what it once was and we feel that we can no longer afford to continue to offer the great value and service we currently do without compromise.

With this in mind we have decided to close our retail and internet business. Obviously this is not going to be immediate as we have lots of stock to sell off first.

Starting today Friday 3rd of August erything on our site and in store is reduced by up to 50%. Fixtures and fittings are also for sale, inclucing paper stands, gridwall, tables, filing cabinets etc.

Should any one be interested in purchasing our business or components of it we would be interested to hear from you.

We would like to take this opportunity to thank all of our customers for their valued support and friendship during our four years in business. Lizzie would especially like to thank everyone for all of the wishes and messages during her year of ill health.

Maureen in going to continue to run private workshops and parchment clubs and anyone interested in those should talk to her directly.

Much love

Lizzie, Mo and all the gang at Occasions.

Hi all

As some of you may know, we decided to shut our website (www.onepurplecow.com) last night. Please let me start by saying both Neil and I are absolutely fine - no need to worry. We made the difficult decision last night to close the shop as I'm unable to put in the number of hours the business needs at the moment. Due to my reduced working hours, we've been struggling to keep the site running over the past few weeks. As our customers know, our delivery times have been getting longer and longer as I've been falling further behind. In the end, we decided it was better to shut the shop for a while and see how things go. We'll honour all outstanding orders but are unable to accept any new ones.

I'm so sorry to have shut without giving any notice. Please be assured we wouldn't have done this unless we had a very good reason! I'll keep you updated but, in the meantime, please don't worry about us.

Thanks again so much for all your support and kind wishes.

Love
Rochelle and Neil x

Dear All
Bumblebee Crafts will be closing down on 31/12/06

We will be moving our popular page kits, subscriptions and our very own range of flowers "The Angel Kiss Range" to our new website that will go live in January at www.scrappingangels.co.uk I would like to take this opportunity to thank you all for your continous support over the years, and I do hope to see you all at our new site next year
I have given alot of consideration to this closure, and after the personal events in my life of recently, I have not been able to offer the high standard of customer service I myself would like to receive. As with so many other comapnies as of late, I need to spend more time with my family and back to enjoying life and scrapping again
I will continue to run crops and retreats as well as our popular page kits, and all these services will be available at our new site in the New Year.
In the meantime, I have set up 2 sections where all the sale goodies will be added over the coming months.
Please note that I will not be sending out back orders, any out of stock item will be refunded unless you specify in the comments box that you will except an alternative product.
All sale orders will be sent by Royal Mail 2nd class, unless the postage costs you have paid for are covered by 1st class post
I hope I have covered everything, please feel free to email me if you have any questions.
Thank you again for all your orders and patience over the last few months.
Love
Anna xx

I'm sad to announce the I intend to close Memory Avenue at Christmas. With a saturated market place and important family issues, my children need me more.

Our last All day crop is Saturday 25th November and I will possible still have more late night crops in December. November will be the last month for classes though.

I will be doing classes for another organisation in the New Year though.:lol:

Thanks for all your support in the nearly four years Memory Avenue has been going.

Loads of reductions are now on the site.

Enjoy.
