ONE MONTH DOWN THE LINE...

...this has been such an enjoyable first month at 
SCRAP-IT DESIGN STUDIO... 
lots of classes and lots of lovely chats ! 

Just a few sneaks of the classes:
I taught this beautiful 6 x 12 album with the gorgeous 
Teresa Collins My Name Is... Collection.
All of these kits are sold out.
 I also taught this class in the month of July...
a layout with some texture paste and making these 
beautiful flowers...
it was a scrap-your-stash class and I was amazed at just 
how beautiful all the layouts came together :-D!
 This layout was a real hit and I love each and every combination
of papers that were used to make up this double page.
I have learnt so much and enjoy seeing all the beautiful
takes on this layout ... I was happy to see that all of you 
completed the stitching so beautifully :-D
 Now this Travel layout, with the 
gorgeous Graphic45 Come Away With Me Collection, 
was barely advertised and all the seats in class 
and all the kits were sold out...wow!
Thank you for each and every one for popping in in July 
and for all the ladies that attended the classes and booked kits.

This is a sneak peek of the August kit: HAPPY...
it was also barely advertised and I now only have one kit left...
this is a beautiful and simplistic layout that will work 
well with "male" photos... This kit is made up with the 
gorgeous Teresa Collins Urban Market paper collection.


Also an August Kit: FRIENDSHIP
...this is a beautiful and girly kit with pearls, ribbon and pretty envelope...
Gorgeous extras in this kit: a Kaisercraft stamp set and a wooden
envelope template. These kits also flew out the door... :-)


I will in future have more of each kit ready.. 
so that more of you can get hold of them...

PLEASE NOTE:

Due to plans made looooooong before the shop was even a thought, 
I have to close the doors for two weeks. 
I will be in the shop on 7 August from 9 - 4 for you to shop
and for collection of kits.
I will be closed on 8Aug and only re-open on 25 August.

I have an awesome class planned for October...
...more details will follow when I am back...

See you soon xx

SCRAP IT DESIGN STUDIO UP AND RUNNING

scrap-it design studio
opened their doors on 1 July 2014.
Thank you to everyone for popping in, the really thoughtful gifts 
and your beautiful remarks...
I will remember this day for a very long time...thank you.







...now with the opening done and dusted, 
we are happily scrapping away in the classroom...

I taught this "mini-album" with the 
Teresa Collins range of papers, to these gorgeous ladies 
{one lady already left when we took the picture :-/}.
We had a whole day of fun and everybody completed their albums...

This was a memorable day for 2 reasons:
This was the first class taught at the shop
AND this was the first class ever where Anel 
completed and stuck down her whole project...YAY!


...apart from all the new faces that I have seen at the shop this week, 
I taught another class this morning...
we played with texture paste and made beautiful flowers...
This was a "scrap your stash" class... where the ladies 
brought their own papers and some embellishments with from home..
The layouts were beautiful and the flowers looked sooooo awesome.
Well done, ladies :-D


I am busy updating the blog for scrap-it design studio...
with all the new dies that I have in stock..
I hope to have everything loaded after the week-end.
You can have a peek at the new line of stencils from
MEMORY BOX that I have uploaded.

Herewith also a few sneak peeks of the KITS that I have 
in store at the moment:

Kit made up with 
BELLA BLV SNAPSHOT COLLECTION 
papers and embellishments 
full colour pictures and instructions, as well as all the embellishments 
needed to put together two double page layouts.

 CHRISTMAS KIT:
a lovely multi-photo double page layout for Christmas photos
in traditional Christmas colours
 FAMILY KIT MADE UP WITH KAISERCRAFT 
HEIRLOOM COLLECTION:
Lovely double page layout with space for lots of family photos
This layout has a heritage feel and sepia photos will work well
on this layout.
You can phone or e-mail me to reserve a kit {or kits}.

Happy scrapping... and shopping!

SCRAP IT DESIGN STUDIO - NEW HOME


...seeing and signing for this business premises was such a great 
experience...it all just worked out so nicely...
I just cannot believe how time flies as we have signed and sealed 
the deal in January 2014. We were notified toward the end of March 
that all paperwork is done and the premises is now ours.
Then to get everything in line to start the renovations...

and that is where we are RIGHT NOW... RENOVATIONS...!!
...we are making good progress on the renovations of the premises...
builders are working hard on meeting deadlines and getting 
things ready...

I am really excited and cannot wait to start moving in 
with tables, chairs and all the rest :-D

There is another shipment of MEMORY BOX dies on it's way and 
will be ready and priced {hopefully} by the time that we 
celebrate the opening of the new premises... off course, all depending 
on the time that it takes to get the parcel to my door...
