The Cat Has Been Taken Out Of The Bag And Popped Through The Cat Flap And It Has Brought Back A Gift.

John - Gentleman Crafter47 Comments

Well, I have been keeping a secret for a while, and, as news is starting to spread amongst the trade routes already I thought it would be nice to give you a heads up too.

So, ya know how I’ve been doing that demonstrating thing with the GoPress & Foil and that design team thing for Couture Creations, the brand behind that fab machine?

Well, it turned out that Andrew – the big boss – was happy enough with my work that he said, ‘how do you fancy designing some stuff for us, mate?’

Probably not his exact words but hey, near enough.

After swooning with shock, sipping my tea and then remembering he was still at the end of the phone, I blurted out, ‘YES! Please thank you please.’ and bowed, for some reason.

Anyhoo, long story short, that was some months ago and we are now almost at the stage of launching those new products!

Now, I’d love to show you some things that I’ve made with them however they are still so fresh that I actually haven’t got them myself yet.

I have however been doing test mockups at home to make sure I’m happy with designs/styles, like a professional grown-up designer, so I’ll be sharing a few of those over the coming weeks but, for this post

I shall simply leave you with these sneaky peeks.

Mmmm, so much pretty…

Oh, the blog title? It was a really badly constructed metaphor. That’s all. No real cats were used in the making of this blog post.

Many thanks for stopping by and I hope you’ll follow this journey to its conclusion with me.

It’ll be nice to have a friend on standby to calm the nerves/pass the whiskey ;)

Anyway, I’ll see you back here for another random ramble soon.

J :)
