New stuff....

The new stuff in this week has seen Cill hyperventerlating.....New Creative Imaginations papers and stickers, yet more and more K-ology and Sweet Pea from K & Co, Sticker Studio awesome home renovation stickers, embellishments and transfers & stickers galore. The Crop Boxes have been good to work with this month and I suppose that I'm biased as icy blues are one of my favourites.... We've had a chance to make some "quick cards" and they are online here in the gallery. Don't forget to check out the Pet cometition in the gallery too. We've had lots of new faces in at the shop this week with some oldies too - sorry Z, I didn't mean that you were old - just that you're a regular - and beware Tokoroa, Wilama's on her way down there tomorrow. Just a reminder, we will have kids classes running in the holidays, keep an eye out on this weeks Friday Gin & Tonic. Now home to light the fire, so until next time.....

Oooops, by the way, our local Woolies had some awesome clear toolboxes in for $19.99 which are great to alter or hold your supplies....

Freezing Brass Monkeys...


Lordy, I've just been up the street to do some simple postage and HOW COLD IS IT!!!!! Marjories colthes shop has gone from having a display of sexy expensive undies to flanelette and wyncyette nighties within the space of a few days!! mmm Nice. Well as you can tell, i'm back at the shop for a wee while and Christine has gone off to the UK for a few weeks with requests of jaffa cakes (is it a cake or a biscuit?) and MFI catalogues upon her return. Some people are easily pleased!

Don't forget to check out the G & T this week for details of our next swap, and you can also view the last swap up on the slides above and on our gallery here.

A mad mad week this week! First days back in quite some time and the kids have something on every night after school. Why does it always work out this way. I'm trying to get through my boxes of unpacking and I'm finally down to the office stuff which was all mixed up in the move and is an absolute nightmare PROCRASTINATION is no longer the name of the game, but pulling hens teeth comes to mind....

Until next time, STAY WARM!!!!!!!!!!!!

whew!! Busy week.


Annie is all moved in to her new house (still unpacking though!) She had a great house warming party which was alot of fun - we got to witness Christine's husband singing along to sing star- he's not bad either!

We were a bit slack last week due to the moving and the party and the short week........lol, and we didn't get our lesson on line posted in the online shop - but its up today and its a goodie!! Rebecca has designed and made this really cute folding album which would be perfect for a gift for someone.

This comes in a kit with all the supplies (except adhesive) and all the instructions, you can purchase it here.

Also I discovered something while I was adding all the new products to the online shop - and I'll share it with you! If you go to the shop front page here - and scroll down in the menu on the left there is a box just like the one pictured below (but maybe with a different product picture - it changes) - see the little white arrow next to the words 'whats new' - well click on that and it will show you all the most recent additions to the shop - great for if you are just wanting to see the newest stuff!!


Have fun drooling over all the new products!! Lots of great new American Traditions Ranges and the new K&Co. stuff!!

May this week end....

I have no computer, boxes of "STUFF" lying around and no matter how many get unpacked, there seem to be even more left to do. Our neighbour shifted his cows via our loading ramps yesterday, a whole herd came in and a whole herd went out. Between boxes, cows and stock trucks, I don't know if I'm Arthur or Martha!! Sky have stuffed up the account - the joys of having families with the same names, and all I want to do is to get into my scrapbooking room! Not just to scrap but to actually be able to GET INTO the room! I'm back in at the shop next Tuesday, and I seem to still have 10 boxes per day still to open, the old house to clean and THE DREADED LOFT still to empty - big burnups ahead!! At least there is tranquility ahead - when I come back to work!!
