Next week ... 21 March 2011

Wow! Back a week already ... still not quite in sync with the rest of Adelaide ... yet! It was great to see many of you over the past week and recount tales of our holiday with you :-)

Next week's workshop is - 

ATTACK YOUR STASH $10

Monday 7-9pm; Wednesday 12:30-2:30pm and Thursday 9:30-11:30am

This over the top Attack Your Stash was a fun layout to come up with using photos Lisa & I had taken at Ikea, layering photos on top of each other to create a great perspective effect!  There’s a long list, so here we go!! Photos - 1 landscape @ 5x7”; 1 landscape @ 4x6” and the same photo blown up to 6x8” portrait. Background - 2x cardstock; Contrast 1 - 2x patterned paper full sheets; Contrast 2 - 1x patterned paper full sheet; Contrast 3 - 1 x cardstock @ 6x12”; Photo mat 1 - 1 x cardstock full sheet; Photo mat 2 - 1 x cardstock full sheet; embroidery floss; title; embellishments - I have used bling strips x 2; pearl & lace flourish; paper flowers x 4, PHEW!!  You will also need your basic tool kit, inks, sewing needle and paper piercer.

Scrap'n'Roast on the 26th is fully booked. PLEASE, PLEASE let me know if you can't make it. Last weekend I had one cancellation and was able contact people on the waiting list, but there was also a no show. When this happens - people on the waiting list miss out and I also buy and prepare food for the amount of people booked in, which doesn't make it cost effective for me. I don't want to charge people for not turning up and I don't want to increase the deposit, so please let me know as soon as you know you can't make it.

Black core-dinations cardstock is still out of stock with the supplier, so I will be trying to get another brand of plain black cardstock until the other is back in stock.

Winter CHA stock is starting to filter into the wholesalers. Have you seen something that you would really like and can't live without??? Let me know so I can add it to my list. When things arrive I can order them in. Personally, I want and can no longer live without a Martha Stewart scoring board!! Print Blocks and Aussie Scrap Source both now are getting in the MS range of products...hmmmm...!

Here's a couple of snaps from the holiday :-)

Happy scrapping,

Mandy :-)
