Hello Fellow Flaunters!

It has been a very busy week here at the shop; Jodie, Lysandra and Maureen have been making plans for the future, including planning our next retreat. We hit a minor glitch... the weekend we had hoped to go away on turns out to be the AFL Grand Final weekend! How inconsiderate of the AFL to do that to us. So we are busy sorting out a new date, so stay tuned. Maureen, Little Jodi and Tara attended a trade night for Collections and naughty Maureen has ordered lots of new product from them. The make and takes from the night are on display in the shop to inspire you. Look out for some great classes coming up.

On your single page layout you will work with sketches and page maps. You will also get to use the Big Shot, create pockets, journaling and eyelets.
Step 4 – An Adventure with Embellishments. Duration - 2 hours
The single page layout you create will include how to use rub ons, stamping, ribbons and transparencies!

We would appreciate if class participants could arrive 15 to 30 minutes early to ensure that classes can start on time, as there are some classes that require you to choose your materials. All class durations are an estimate only.

The Scrap N Yap Zone

A light supper is provided, along with a door prize and demonstration on the night. You will have a whole table to yourself to work on.

Junior Scrap N Yaps –Tuesdays, 3.30pm – 5.00pm. (Weekly during the school term)

Unfortunately we are unable to have children under the age of 8 unless an adult accompanies them. All the kids need to bring is a basic tool kit** and any project that they want to work on.
Cost $5.00. Bookings are essential.

THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK
Only a Mother can share Love with all of her children, yet give each child undivided Love.

Long time no Post!

Hi everyone,

I know it has been a while since we last posted! (Jodi, we saw your comment!) Lets just say that lots has been happening here at the shop, most importantly being that we celebrated our first birthday! That's right, we survived the perilous first 12 months and are still standing and smiling.

Last weekend we had a 20% off store wide sale and then on Sunday we officially celebrated this momentous occasion with demonstrations of the Cougar, Bigshot, Cricut and Slice machines. We also had a lovely birthday cake from the Cheesecake Shop and lots of happy tears and laughter with our lovely customers.

We will posting some photos from the day soon.

We have a lot of great classes coming up and they are popular so please check them out and get your name down asap.

That's all for now, have to get ready for tonight's Scrap N Yap!

Take Care
Maureen

Well finally I have done it!! I have completed the first challenge that was put out to you all. Have you done your "Goals for 09" page yet. If so email us a copy to scrapitflauntit@bigpond.com.au and we will add it to the blog.




My Goals for '09 are: Lose 15 kg's, Complete one page a week, Be more patient with my kids, Go to SA for a holiday, Pay off my credit cards, Fix up my house, Have more family time, Keep a more organised house and lastly, Look after myself better. 9 goals for '09.

I had lots of ideas for this page and finally at 1.00am in the morning it all became reality. (OK so I finished at 3.30am but hubby doesn't need to know that!!)

I am happy with my layout and challenged myself even more by having no photo and using the new "Bazzill Stitch Guide Rulers". I love this stitching guide. There are so many options and you can use a bit of the design or the whole design. A definate for your scrap tools. Leave some comments and let me know what you think.

I am now working to the next challenge of completing a page a week this year. I am only four pages behind so I better get myself organised and get going. Who is going to do this challenge with me?

Tonight we are holding a Scrap N Yap crop night and the ladies are all happily scrapping away.



We have a wonderful group of ladies who attend.

Crop nights are held on Saturday night and are a great time to get together and have time to scrap without any interruptions. Just $10 for six hours of crop time (scrapbooking time) with supper, tea and coffee included, plus a door prize, what else could you ask for. We have spaces for 15 people, which allows you a full table to yourself!! You need to reserve your spot on 9498 0097.

Better go and get the supper ready for the ladies, have a lovely Australia Day Weekend and see you in the shop soon.

Happy Scrapping

Jodie
