8 WEEKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HURRY WHILE THERE'S TIME

Did you know that the first term of classes only run for 8 weeks?????  Yes that's right!!!  There are plenty of classes to choose from and they are repeated twice only. 
Here are some snippets for you to look at.




We have 2 gorgeous layouts with a vintage/elegant theme, 1 layout excellent for boys - it's using the "Faux Metal" technique - lots of fun,  7 easy cards with a male theme, mini albums, circular pop up album, gorgeous little pop up cards and something new to Scrapbook Lady - painting (second photo).
Julie has joined the team at Scrapbook Lady and is kindly leading us into the world of painting - excellent to include on your cards, layouts and off the page projects. You really need to drop in and see our samples, find something you like and book your spot for a class.

Hope to see you soon.

Blog Challenge

Ok - feel like making a card?  Well all you need to do is look at this image and be inspired by it.



You might like to chose the colours, the design, or maybe the actual mugs - or all 3.  It doesn't matter.  The choice is yours.

You can send your entry via email or you can pop it into the shop.

If you have your own blog all  you need to do is upload your photo and copy and paste the link at the top of your page.  Then all you need to do is leave a comment to this post and a "link" to your blog.  If you are unsure of what to do give Sandie a ring at the shop. 

(This post will reflect 30th September's date which enable the post to be at the top of the blog page until challenge is over.)

Good luck and happy creating.

LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION

What do you get when you put 34 ladies in a beautiful location in the rolling hills of Rawson?  You get 34 happy and contented ladies who scrapped up a storm over a 3 day event at the inaugural Scrapbook Lady Retreat held last weekend.

The day started with Jan, Lisa and Sandie loading up their cars with all the goodies from the shop and then we headed for the hills.  There was a convoy of cars all heading to the destination.  The first lot arrived about 2pm and then slowly but surely the rest of the gang arrived.

We set several little challenges over the weekend - one of which was to create a name card to sit on our desks - this was also a great way to meet and greet each other.  It was so nice to meet some of the people that we'd only spoken to over the phone.   We had one lady - Judy, make the long hall from Geelong.  Here is the first instalment of name cards - we picked one lucky winner - Belinda.  (Belinda's card is on the top right - the beautiful purple one).  Belinda was quite chuffed with her win.






(Second instalment of name cards - the winner chosen was Kristy.)

Dinner was next and one can only say that we were very satisfied.  Over the weekend the food was magnificent - we certainly didn't go hungry - that is for sure!!!!


After dinner we scrapped the night away - Sandie set everyone a little challenge using one sheet of patterned paper, one piece of card stock, some brads and some ribbon.  People who were up to the task had to create a set of 3 cards - they certainly outdid themselves.  We had some amazing cards created.  Here is the winning set created by Lorae (more photos to be posted later)

On Saturday we were all up and had breakfast at  8.30 and then back to the recreation room to have another fun filled day of scrapping, talking, plenty of laughing, the odd bit of chocolate and the odd drop of alcohol.  Lisa taught everyone how to make a mover card which was a popular class.  Fiona was kind enough to teach us how to colour with Copics - some of the girlies surprised themselves by actually putting a card together using their newly coloured image.  A huge thank you to Fiona for her efforts - we were all very happy. Later on that night we popped our pj's on and scrapped to all hours of the night - or should I say morning......LOL!!!!



Here is a set of cards that Jan made with her much loved Graphic 45 paper - The Wizard of Oz - it was such a great opportunity for Jan to let her her down and to sit, relax and scrap. 



Sunday was another great day - we all finished up our projects and headed off home about 3pm.  It was very sad for the weekend to come to an end.  We have officially booked for this time next year with most of the girls securing their spots for another fantastic weekend.

Thank you to all who supported the Retreat.
