and we're OPEN!

Thanks for sticking with us - we know it's been a long wait - trust me, my bottom is very aware of how long its been sitting here trying to get things sorted!
 

You will see on the main menu bar across the top of the site, that there are lots of new ways to find the products you want, well, there will be, but they are not all yet functioning....   Sorry but there are so many little boxes to tick to get everything in the right product and category sections and with only one pair of hands, I just haven't managed to do that part yet.   So, think of this a peek into the good things to come....

For now, your best points of call are either NEW ARRIVALS


Or BRANDS - you will be able to sub-divide the brands by stamps/dies/ink/paper etc once I have all those boxes ticked, but for now you will get everything.   Sorry.    There is a nice SEARCH box at the top of the page which should find any single item you're looking for if you're struggling.


You can also pick the brand from the drop down menu too ;-)

In the coming weeks you will also be able to search not only by product type - ie paper, stamp, die etc


But also by category - ie birthday, florals, sentiments etc   We think this will be a really useful feature, but it will take a good while for me to categorise over 4500 products MANUALLY!   Watch this space though, it's coming soon!

 

On the drop down menu you will also find a sales section (not much in there yet, but there will be in the coming weeks) and there is a new Community Links menu which will take you to all our social media sites, blogs etc.

There are some new features for those of you who register - you can create a wish list, compare the products and even write product reviews!    There is so much functionality the site will grow with us as we do.

At the bottom of the bottom of the page you will find our terms and conditions (do have a read as shipping has changed) as well as FAQs and information about us.   There is also a contact us form, and a quick way to check your orders even if you are not a registered customer.   This is also the place to sign up to receive our newsletter if you don't already get the Make the Day Special One - if you do, then the list has migrated and you don't need to sign up again.


Hope you like the new site - I am sure it will take some getting used to, but I'm sure you'll like it once you get over the initial differences.

PLEASE NOTE - YOU MAY NOT GET AN ORDER CONFIRMATION EMAIL - WE ARE HAVING PROBLEMS WITH A SETTING AND THE WEB DEVELOPER HAS PUT OFF OTHER WORK TO GET US OPEN, SO THIS MAY TAKE A FEW DAYS TO FIX.

Thanks for your patience and understanding!

  5. Hello Tara, I still cannot access your shop. It tells me it's a default web page :-(
    It happens when I click on your link, as well as when I try to type in the address. Is it, because I am using a mobile device?
