Country Papercraft's
September Mid Monthly Newsletter
September 15, 2009 |
Hi
It has been a little hub of activity again at Country Papercraft. Marg has purchase what used to be the old Railway Barracks in Merredin, to be renovated and used as holiday accommodation for retreats. These little buildings are so cute, and will be big enough to house a couple of guests in each one. Check out the Blog and the Gallery for photos of them, in the process of being moved, on what would have been one of the windiest days that we have known for a long time!
Make sure you also keep your eye on the Blog for the new Designer Challenges. These will be announced once a month and you will have the opportunity to win a gift voucher to spend in store!
Until next time....
Stay safe 'n' happy scrapping

SCRAPPIN' AT THE ROCK
With the Shop now up and running, Marg is able to cater for mini retreats more often, rather than a couple of large camps twice a year. This means there are more times available for you to choose to attend a Scrapping Retreat at Country Papercraft.
Marg has dates available, so why not grab a group of friends, and chose a date that suits you and scrap for the whole weekend. Any one who attends one of the scrap retreats always come away learning something new, making new friends, and having a whole lot of fun.

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.

Congratulations to this month's SURPRISE DESIGNER - Barbie aka Scrapping Queen!
These Kits are only available to those who are chosen as the monthly SURPRISE DESIGNER. They are not available for purchase. REGISTER IN THE FORUM AND PLACE YOUR ORDER TO HAVE A CHANCE TO WIN THE SURPRISE DESIGNER KIT!

Quote Challenge
Quotes are a great source of inspiration, and also an important part of scrapbooking - they can say so much about a layout, a feeling, a moment in time. Deb will each month be challenging us all to use a particular quote in our scrapbooking. Even, if at this time you are unable to scrap with the quote, make sure you write them down for a time when inspiration strikes.
This month's quote is:
"Will you ever? I don't think you will ever fully understand how you've touched
my life and made me who I am.I don't think you could ever know just how truly
special you are that even on the darkest nights you are my brightest star." Erica Jong -
WILL YOU EVER? - created by Deb
Deb uses KAISERscrapbooks Q1 Duchess papers, pearls and wooden flourish, along with SEI and AdornIt's alphabet stickers.
WILL YOU EVER? - created by Lynlee
