scrap sites & happy birthday to me!

Just a quick post to say that there’s a new scrapbooking forum up at www.scrapbookoutletnz.co.nz it’s a Southland based (Invercargill) online store so check it out & introduce yourself! They are also looking for a design team so go to the site, click on design team and send them some stuff (3 layouts & something altered). There are some cool products there too & for great prices – Bazzill is $1.20!!! and they have a huge range.

There is also going to be a scrapcamp in Queenstown on Queens Birthday Weekend (2nd-4th June) so check that out at www.aroyalscrapcamp.blogspot.com or post here if you want an enrolment form.

Have you seen the www.memories-revisited.co.nz new site – it has a shopping cart and everything – really easy to use & can see how much you are spending all on the page you are viewing her great products on. Karen is looking for layouts to go in her gallery there too – so send her some pages for all the world to see – well other scrapbooking fanatics anyway.

One more thing – I turn 30 next week – finally feel like I can say I’m a grown up, well next week anyway!

Be Good & Happy Scrapping!

Purging

The stuff can take over. My stuff was covering my work surface and much of the bedroom floor. I had to do a big sort out. I was brutal. Stuff...ready to go. I packaged it in some storage totes I had that needed a new home (I’m waiting for my new CTMH travel system to arrive) and listed it on s local trading site. It’s gone now. It doesn’t look pretty but I have a desk space and things are organised. The rest of my supplies now fit in this cupboard. Since the ‘purge’ I have had the space to create. It feels good and it’s great to be able to get to my desk. A few pages made since the tidy up...and a box of 20 cards!

my week so far...

This week is turning out great! Having time on Monday (Otago Anniversary Day) to scrap with Lynley was just the best beginning! Lynley was putting together some beginner class stuff that she intends to do soon – it looked great! I got home to an email from The Scrapbook Outlet NZ asking if I would be a casual/oncall designer for their Design Team – of course I accepted – can’t wait to learn from Rach , Donna & Shani! Then today I get an email from Jo (subeditor @ Up2Scrap ) accepting one of my submissions – I did send a few mind you so as you can imagine I’m buzzing! I have packaged the LO ready to send tomorrow after Playcentre. Need to get back to reality though – Mum & Dad’s 50th Birthday this weekend, have to work out what I’m going to say, sort some table decorations & not to mention some way of sharing pictures of them when I only have Friday night & Saturday to do it! Have to do some Playcentre Admin work this ev...
