This week at Made by Mandy Scrapbooking

Hi girls!

Just thought I would start letting you know what was happening each week via email.

The workshop for next week is "Dirty Dog". Here's the sneak peek - of course the layout is hanging in the shop.

You will need 1 4x6 landscape photo & 2 photos that can be cropped down - mine were landscape to start, but you could get away with either orientation. I have used lots of circle punches - so if you have any punches from 1" to 2" and any in-between, bring them with you so you don't have to wait. You will also need your inks & something for your title (I have used a large monogram letter & rub-ons) and journal pen.

Workshop times are - Monday 7-9pm; Wednesday 12-2pm; Thursday 9.30-11.30am. Please ring or email & book - this helps with my organisation and preparation, thanks!

On Saturday the 30th is the ever popular Scrap'n'Roast which has only 2 spots left - so get in quick! Scrap your way from 4pm until midnight with a roast dinner - if you can fit it in after munching on all the nibbles! The following Scrap'n'Roast will be the 13th June - so get in quick because it fills fast!!!

The June calendar starts soon - oh my, where has the first half of the year gone? Monthly card workshop is on Monday (1st June 9.30-11.30am), so book in to make some cute cards for any occasion. We will be playing with the Cuttlebug embossing plates and Black Magic Core-dinations card stock, the effect is stunning!

On Special in the shop are all the TLC page kits - a whopping 40% off the marked price. That's a bargain! Get in quick because they will not be available again.

New stock is coming in all the time, so drop in & have a look. If there's something special that you want - ask if I can order it in for you, if I can get it from my suppliers you just need to give me a 50% deposit, or start a lay-by and I will order it for you.

Hope you are all keeping well, see you soon in my little shop!
Mandy

spec-CAT-ular!!!!

Hi from the Arts Theatre & CATS!!!!
Having lots of fun, although still very unsure of my flute playing - but it is getting better each performance.
Here are some photos - yes I have been wandering around with my lovely DSLR snapping off shots here there & everywhere!

Here are Gordie & Danielle all dressed up & ready to meow their way through the show! Gordie is Munkustrap - the storyteller.

Daniel as Rum Tum Tugger

Gordie & me backstage before a show - can you see my cat ears? Actually we are in the hallway - aka "the Band Dressing Room". You can just see part of the sign I made up & stuck on the mirror!!

Some of the orchestra in the backstage kitchen. Nicola, Maureen, Me (now you can see my cat ears!) & Ben - our fantastically talented Musical Director.

Daniel, Danielle & me.


You can see from the photos - we are all having great fun!
The whole season was sold out a week before opening, so playing to full houses every night.
Just purrrrrfect.....
See you all soon, Mandy xx

TA DA!!! Photos of new scrap room...

I have been asked to put some photos of my new scrapping space, aka, the old rumpus room, but now the new scrap room! Well here they are.... plenty of room for up to 10 scrappers, all my stock around the room including the fat free calorie free lolly shop section!!! (for all those pages that need embellishments!)

Just loving these paper racks - which I only just bought from Scrapbook Station's closing down sale. They take up less room....and doesn't the card stock look delicious!!!
