March's Designer Kit Release Newsletter
|
Hi
March... Oh my Goodness - did I miss February?
Apologies all our readers who missed February's Mid Month Newsletter - life just got way too hectic and there was no way that I could fit it into my busy schedule. But never fear - all the gorgeous layouts will be featured in this month's newsletter from our Designers.
Marg & Neil are very busy renovating the little scrapper's huts - accommodation for those who come to stay at The Scrappin' At the Rock Retreats. They will be fully refurbished in time for the April Camps. So if you are attending the camps - you may well be one of the first to have a bed in the new little huts.
All the newly released products from CHA are slowly hitting the shelves here in Aus, so make sure you check out the shop regularly with all the new updates of products.
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. |
