April's Designer Kit Release Newsletter
April 01, 2009 |
Hi
No news this week... No scrapping, nothing to report.... Gotcha... April Fools! Don't you just love April Fool's Day. I know my kids do. But to me it's just another day, reminding me that a quarter of the year has already passed. Where is the time going? The last two weekends have seen the SHOP hosting the first Scrapping at the Rock, being held at the Bricks & Mortar Store. This new Camp format ran so smoothly, and was a lot easier on those organising, no packing up of the shop to move it all into town, then unpack it all for the weekend, only to pack it up to bring it home again. From all accounts a great time was had by all.  So if you would like to book a weekend scrapping, just get a bunch of friends together, contact Marg and she can let you know which dates are free. Until Next Time
Stay safe 'n' happy scrapping

Blog Sketches
This year, the Designer's thought that they would have a go at creating some sketches for the readers of the blog. So each week we will be posting a new sketch by one of the Designers - and hopefully a layout using the sketch. But that depends on the busy schedule of the Designers - But we promise you there will be a SKETCH each week. So why not jump on over to the BLOG and check out each week's sketch. |

Designer's Tip
DON'T
STACK ALBUMS - Store your Scrapbook albums standing upright. Stacking them will
cause pressure on the photos at the bottom of the pile.
