Country Papercraft's
May's Monthly Kit Release Newsletter
May 1, 2008 |
Hi
Welcome to the next jammed pack edition of our Newsletter.
This month's kit contains papers perfect for those boy layouts. Well worth getting hold of. I know that the Designers have had great fun working with this kit.
May also sees the 2nd Anniversary of Country Papercraft under Marg's loving care. Over the past two years the store has grown - almost to bursting! The success of the shop is a tribute to Marg and all the hard work that she puts into the store. Congratulations Marg! And here's to many more successful years, and by next Anniversary we hope to see you in the NEW STORE!
May 3rd is NATIONAL SCRAPBOOKING DAY! So in honour of this great craft, we are hosting a cyber crop in the Forum. I hope that you are able to join us for a weekend of fun and challenges, encouraging you all to create many layouts.
Stay safe 'n' happy scrapping

Word.pictures is a new scrapbook related blog. This blog challenges you to follow the instructions posted to create a layout. You can interpret the instructions as you read them. Each month a new challenge is posted, and you then have a month to create the layout. The Designers thought they would give it a go.
The challenge for April is listed HERE. May's Challenge will be announced in a few days.

Today's Designer Tip
Store your ink pads - especially the VersaMark Ink Cubes upside down. This helps to prevent the ink from drying out, by allowing the colour to flow through the ink pad - rather than rest in the bottom of the foam pad. |
