TECHNICAL DIFFICULTIES...

Hey Everyone

Just a quick message for all the readers of Kraft It Up, White With 1 and Scrap The Boys...

I am having some major computer issues at the moment and my laptop is off to see someone who can hopefully work out what is wrong with it and fix it tomorrow...

I am therefore, depending on how long it takes to get fixed, could be out of action for a while, hopefully not too long but it may mean that there will not be the monthly challenge posted on the 1st and if you are waiting for emails from me there may be a delay there as well..

I am using my daughters computer at the moment however it doesnt have all of my images from the CT on it which will cause a delay until I get mine back...

Please bear with me, fingers crossed I am back up and going very very soon, that is until this baby decideds to come which will hopefully be after I get the computer back LOL!

Thanks for your understanding...

I cant believe that it is almost Christmas, I probably say it every month but it still hasnt sunk in...

Last month we had some AMAZING entries for our Black & Mist/Paint challenge and we received some gorgeous Creative Team Applications, thank you to everyone who entered both or either one!!!

This month we have 3 wonderful sponsors, please remember to check their sites out they have amazing products and without their help the blogs wouldnt be what they are today!!!!

SCRAP THERAPY...
We have closed our other business to focus wholly on Scraptherapy, opening a Paper Craft Bricks and Mortar store in Babinda, FNQ to run in conjunction with the online site. During the last 2+ years we have learnt a whole load of stuff about e-commerce, scrapbooking, cardmaking and the people who love these hobbies.

At www.scrapthearpy.com.au you will find a fantastic gallery filled with inspiring ideas, a great community of ladies and an odd guy or two in our online forum. Our Design Team backed up by our Big Sisters offer regular competitions and challenges to help you find your mojo, and a chance to win a shopping voucher or two. Then of course there is the shop where we hope you will find all the latest and greatest products at great prices. If you can’t find what you are looking for feel free to contact me at lee-anne@scraptherapy.com.au and check to see if we can get it in for you. We often can.

Our freight charges for orders up to $25 is $9.00, orders between $25 to $100 stay at $6 and orders over $100 are now free.

I love scrapbooking and Danny can whip up a pretty good card, but our true passion is excelling in great customer service, which we hope to continue to do for years to come.

2 CRAFTY...
2Crafty strives to offer affordable and versatile laser cut chipboard products to the Australian and International Craft market.

2Crafty’s products are manufactured here in Australia and offer products suitable for scrapbooking, cardmaking, altered art, invitations and mixed media, and with over 700 designs, every area has been covered.

2Crafty’s owner Vanessa, stumbled on the demonstration of the laser cutter at one of the Sydney craft fairs back in 2006 and although her background was Human Resources and payroll her creative mind could see unlimited possibilities and so began her journey into the world of a craft wholesaler.

2Crafty designs are supported both locally and in the overseas market and Vanessa strives to offer the highest level of customer support, and is happy to discuss personalized orders with customers via their local scrapbooking store.

2Crafty also offers a fabulous blog that is updated weekly with projects created from its wonderful Design Team which includes the very talented Anthea Peterson, Kerryn Fry, Belinda Howlett, Susan Longman and 2011 Master – Michelle Winston.

The 2Crafty website, although a wholesale website, offers you a birds eye view of all the wonderful designs that it offers. Make sure you check out the stockist list and don’t be afraid to ask your local store to order products that they may not have in stock.

2Crafty is delighted to be sponsoring WHITE WITH 1 and hope you enjoy playing along with the wonderful challenges that the girls set for you.

SCRAPBOOKING FROM SCRATCH...
My name is Peta. I am married to Jason and we have 4 children, Zac, Meah, Caleb & Sienna.

I have been scrapbooking since 2003. My interest started after being invited to a Creative Memories workshop at a friends place. I still use my CM products, and recommend highly their range of tools.

But my true scrapping addiction started once I found the huge range of products available when attending a local lady's workshops in 2005. Unfortunately she decided to stop teaching and my girlfriend said I should start up teaching, even if we just do it as a get together... well that now seems like so many years ago. I am holding classes every week and I have also held 3 home based retreats as well.

My friends & customers love the fact that they can come to my classes and receive a pack of product and instruction to complete their pages, not too much thought on their behalf, so hence where "scrapbookingfromscratch" has come from.

My goal is to bring my home classes to your home in a conveniently packaged purchase for you to complete these gorgeous pages too.
