A Royal scrap camp

A Royal scrap camp
Fancy spending Queens Birthday Weekend (2nd – 5th June) in beautiful Queenstown – scrapping or taking photos to scrap?  
A few of us ‘Wakatipu Scrappers’ decided that we wanted a camp too so we are having one.  We will be staying at Lakeland Park for the weekend, getting pizza etc delivered for our evening meals & having the other meals catered – all for a total cost of $160 – three nights, food & scrapbooking!  There will be some workshops – with class packs, a big screen for some chick flicks & scrapbooking dvd’s – all included in the price as well as a goodie bag for all ‘full enrolments’ + at the end of each month all enrolments with deposit paid will go into the draw to win some supplies.
If you want more info email me wakatipuscrappers@yahoo.co.nz & I can answer your questions or if you give me your address, can send you an enrolment form.  I also have the enrolment form as a pdf document if you would prefer that I email it to you.  This is a really ‘open’ camp & will hopefully be the start of an annual event where the focus is scrapbooking and uninterrupted opportunities to do this.

Oh my Gosh, that sounds so great Lara, that would be so much fun! The worst part would be narrowing down what scrap supplies to take!!...lol Its quite a long way from home for me, would be a neat opportunity though, will definitely give it some thought!

My 10cents worth...Laras mum here.
This will be one of the cheapest opportunities to stay in Qtown. We stayed at the camp (fantastic accomodation and views) when my mum had her 70th bday recently. Thoroughly recommended. Cheap airtickets if you book early online. Come on u NIslanders come have a look!!!and scrap.....granny

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!

Cheese Rolls

Spread sliced bread with Cheese Spread (see below). Roll up. Toast in oven & serve hot. These may be frozen and heated when required! cheese spread: 1pkt onion soup; 500g tasty cheese - grated; a 400g tin of evaporated milk; Put all ingredients in a saucepan and heat slowly until cheese melts and mixture thickens. Stir well. When cool store in jars in the fridge for sandwhiches etc or put in your cheese rolls! Yep, the Up2Scrap Elite Design team has been announced - soo privileged & excited to be a part of it. Congrats to Donna , Rach , Lianne , Trina & Sue & thanks Steph & Jo for the opportunity:-) We have been in Invercargill overnight - nice to get away even if it is only for a night! We went to Queens Park & the Museum/Art Gallery today & the Art Gallery Cafe served these cheese rolls -yum! Such a lower South Island thing - but soo good! 

digital scrapbooking

I have been asked by a couple of friends via facebook about digital scrapbooking...what it is, how to and some sites etc. I thought I'd put a post here about it and send them here (just click on the purple coloured words and you'll head to the site I'm talking about). Essentially digital scrapbooking is using digital 'elements' to create scrapbook pages all on your computer, they can be saved as jpegs and printed on your home printer or through a photo developer, or you can just save them to a disc & can share them easily via email, flickr or even facebook! OK, design software, I use gimp because it's free! You can download trials of photoshop , photoshop elements and Creative Suite if you think you might like to purchase some slightly more user friendly software...There are other software options, but photoshop seems to be a main one. Edited to add: Quick pages.... basically the page is made for you and you just put your photo into it....check out this...
