What's been happening...

I need to apologise to you all as I have not posted a blog recently. It has been a bit crazy for me personally with a death in the family, but it has just enhanced my need to scrap my memories for the future generations. With this in mind I want to ask you all something... do you journal on your scrapbook pages? Journalling could be as little as the date the photo/s were taken and who is in them to telling the story behind the photo eg. what was happening when the photo was taken. Journalling doesn't have to be a lot, it doesn't even need to be visible. You can get creative with the journalling, maybe hiding it on a tag behind the photo if you don't want to have it seen. With the recent loss it has made me wonder what memories and stories have been lost with her. My children may not necessarily care what my year 12 formal was like, or how I met their father, but who's to say that my grandchildren or great grandchildren may not want to know. Even just journalling about what we had available to us growing up compared to what is available these days would be an interesting read for future generations. I know that in my search of family history I would have loved if one of my ancestors had scrapped their memories and stories of their lives. Just a little something to think about when you scrap your next page.

Till next time,

Happy scraping

Sorry for being away so long

14 Flowers
Yesterday was my Techniques event at Dilston Hall where we made 14 flowers with just three different sized flower punches. Alot of curling, pinching, spritzing, punching and sticking was done, and alot of fun was had. Flowers were punched then lost, instructions were punched by accident, and flowers got stuck to fingers. Thank you Pat for sharing her tip of using sorbalene cream to unstick fingers when they've been stuck together by super glue. Next month's Technique event is focused on the May New Products held on Sunday 19th May from 1pm-3pm at Dilston Hall. This is the same weekend that consultants all over the country will see the new products, so if you are interested in attending please let me know.

I just want to take this opportunity to say sorry to my customers for no newsletter or blog posts these last few weeks. Over Easter I went to Maria Island as a parent helper on my son's cub camp, and ended up being airlifted off the island with suspected appendicitis. It was quite an exciting experience, my first time being in a helicopter, that while I was bed ridden the following week I needed to scrap the experience. Thankfully it wasn't appendicitis, and as investigations continue I just wanted to apologise to you all. I'm sure you all understand.

Now that I'm feeling better I'm back with my blog and newsletter (which should be coming out later this week). On Sunday 28th April if you're in George Town come along to a FREE Mega Demo from 1:30pm-4pm at the Supper Room, George Town Memorial Hall. Just for coming along you receive a "Spend $50 choose $50" voucher, so you can buy $100 worth of product and only pay $50. If you bring four friends with you, you will receive a host pack valued at $50. Call me on 0425 256 777 to book your spot.

Till next time,

Mega Demo @ Evandale Tasmania



Vellum Pouch
Easter Card
On Sunday I held a Mega Demo at Evandale Memorial Hall following the stand I had at Evandale Village Fair the previous Saturday. Those in attendance received a "Spend $50 choose another $50" voucher just to say thanks for coming. Fun and craft was shared amongst all in attendance. Thanks to the lovely ladies who came along, it was a great afternoon. As Easter is fast approaching we made an Easter card using the Bella paper range and Distress Markers, as well as a Vellum Pouch using the Ezy Press that everyone was able to put an Easter Egg in to take home. These projects are pictured. The Vellum Pouches are great and easy to make, if you're wanting that special gift to hand out to your kids friends (and teachers) at Easter time. As it is made just using the Ezy Press and stamping, you may be able to get your older kids to help you make them. If you are wanting a rough copy of how to make them if you were unable to attend the Mega Demo contact me and I'll endevour to help you. My next Mega Demo will be on Sunday 17th March at Legana Memorial Hall. If you are interested in attending let me know.

Until next time,

Happy scrapping

MEGA March Madness!!!

Surprise Packs available in March
I hope that everyone enjoyed summer as we enter into autumn. As the weather cools and the school year kicks off into full-swing take some time out to plan all the craft you can do during the coming wintery months. There are Surprise Packs available this month from Kaszazz. They include products to the value of $100RRP but you can purchase them for just $50. You can purchase as many as you like, there are no limits!!! The March Madness pack (7083CP) is available to purchase from 1 March - 14 March. This pack will be as pictured, however the colours or styles of some items will be chosen at random by Kaszazz. The Bag A Bargain pack (7084CP) is available from 15 March - 28 March only. The contents will be revealed on 15 March which I will put in another post on here. If you would like to take advantage of either of these surprise packs be sure to contact me in the period that they are running. I wouldn't want you to miss out if you are desperately wanting one :D
March Host Promotions
There are some great host promotions available through the month of March if you host a Kaszazz customer event. This could be either a FREE Make and Take Demonstration, a 2-hour workshop or a Master Class workshop. Why not book an event to see the new Alcohol Ink Artist Markers in action and have the opportunity to try them out yourself? If you would like to have a few friends around for some crafty fun during the month of March (and earn some great rewards while having a play) be sure to contact me. If you're wanting to earn some of these rewards but don't have an available time to have your friends around, or your place is too small, why not host a catalogue party??? These are easy to do. You take a catalogue along to show your friends and they order what they want. You will then be able to order up to the value of the orders collected for yourself and receive 20% off your order. You will also still receive the normal hostess credits and rewards available if you had had the party. If this is something you feel you may be interested in, send me an email or give me a call and I can arrange it for you.

Remember I will be running a Mega Demo at Evandale Memorial Hall this Sunday 3rd March from 1:30pm. I will also be running a Mega Demo at Legana Memorial Hall on Sunday 17th March from 2pm. These are FREE events to attend, and just for coming along I will give you a "Spend $50 Choose $50" voucher. If you bring four friends with you I will give you a Host Pack valued at over $50RRP of Kaszazz Products. If you are unable to make any of these events I will be running my next Techniques Event showcasing the new Alcohol Ink Artist Markers on Sunday 24th March from 1pm at Dilston Memorial Hall. I look forward to seeing you all at one of my events this month.

Till next time,

Happy scrapping
