Father's Day
Hi  
 
Welcome to the next edition of CPC's newsletter, the designers have been busy creating gorgeous layouts to inspire you.  So why not grab a warm cuppa, settle down and take a few minutes to check out what they have been up to. 
 
The BLOG has the most recent photos of the shop building on it. Now the outside is all but finished, except for the painting, all the work is happening on the inside - with the electrics being decked out.  
 
It's not to late to book into  'Scrapping at the Rock' in October.  Contact Marg for further details and to book your place.
 
The forum is running beautifully with more people joining up daily.  Our 3 lucky  members that win a $5.00 voucher are 3 - 'Love2Scrap'  32 - 'Tomarz' & 19 - 'Anna'. Please email me for details on how to claim your voucher.
 
Have you caught up on the SCRAP-OLYMPICS happening in the FORUM. Medals are being decided each day.  The layouts that are being created for the challenges are absolutely awesome.  Check out the GALLERY to see everyone's creations.
 
Stay safe 'n' happy scrapping

Surprise Designer Competition
 
 
 
Each month one lucky shopper is chosen as a Surprise Designer.  It is simple to enter, all you have to do is register in the FORUM and then place an order in 2 consecutive months.  There is no limit to the amount you spend each month, just place an order. Each month one lucky shopper is chosen and when they receive their order in the mail they will receive a Surprise Designer Kit.  All you do then is create your layouts, cards, mini albums, what ever you wish to create with your kit.  Unlike the Designer kits you may add whatever elements you wish with the kit to create your layouts.
 
This month's lucky Surprise Designer is Robjoy!

Today's Designer Tip
 
Use your Glimmer Mist with a brush and edge your work like you would with ink.  You can also paint it on but it takes a bit longer to dry.

Just Because....
 
Blind Scrapping is the newest big thing in the scrapping world - it is similar to scrapping by a sketch, but instead of visually seeing the sketch you are given the set of instructions of how to create the layout.  It's up to you how you interpret it.
 
Leonie gives us Blind Scrapping Challenges for Cyber Crops, Weekend Challenges and the like. Here is a layout that Leonie created using the set of instructions given.

GRANMA'S FAIRY - created by Marg
 
Marg has created this layout using lots of felt.  She has cut the title out of felt, as well as the large pink flower, which then has been machine stitched to the layout.
