Re-Stock Items

After a really disturbing 12 months with my husband being treated for cancer, the highs and lows, and every complication that could ever been thrown at him, he is starting to venture away from the bed or lounge chair, yet he still has a long way to go, so I am slowly getting through the large amount of boxes to be unloaded with stock to the website.

Yes, Tim Holtz and Prima Marketing Inc have been uploaded.

This is the perfect time to get yourself a bargain while the sale has been extended until 10th May 2014. That's right 50% off, but you must use the code Easter14 in the box when shopping to get this discount.

Off to unpack another box,

Cheers
Kim

Rosalie in The Garden

Rozalia is the name of the Latin origin and means "rose Bush" Rozalia is the name of a fairly original and not popular in Poland. The name of it is under the care of the planet Venus, and the sign of the Zodiac, which fits this name is lion.   Our Rozalia is artistic soul with a touch of romanticism, sometimes a bit of sense. Rose loves to surround yourself with manually created objects, robótkować, and the most free time to spend in the garden.

Warm Wishes

The heat, the traditional collection for winter and the holidays contains universal papers for use throughout the year. Zaaprojektowana collection by Magda Tomaszewską.

WOW we only have 8 weekends left till Christmas

I think it must be time to start thinking about Christmas. Over the next few weeks, I will share with you some ideas that I have been mulling over about presents.

Being in Australia, means we have a hot Christmas, but we all dream to have a cold one with snow and lots of trimmings. Below I am sharing a layout I have done using Winter Time range from Studio75. This line of papers doesn't need to be used for just winter and I found it very suitable for my layout called 'Christmas in Australia'

I distressed edges, inked, layered, used lots of flowers that were on my desk and the journalling used was A Aussie Christmas Poem that I printed out on Acetate.

Because I had still lots of paper pieces left over, I decided to make some hexagon boxes suitable for male and female to place a gift card inside, instead of the usual envelope under the tree, I wanted something a little bit more exciting. I will also attached the template to this blog

Templates for Hexagon Box are

And the last bits of paper I made a Christmas Card from distressing and inking all the edges, I used glue lines to shape the christmas tree with bits of bling.

Should you required the templates emailed to you in full size, please don't hesitate to contact me info@scrappykapers.com

Oh no.................... it's October already

October, a sign our season is moving into Summer, and Christmas is nearly here.

 I for one will be so glad to see the end of this year. Some of you will already know this, but this year bought news, none of us were prepared for, my husband was diagnosed with Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma at an advanced stage. I felt my world came tumbling down and trying to struggle to surface again, it was as if  I was drowning along with my husband. We knew the outcome after treatment would be positive but we had to get through this.. All our plans were put on hold, work commitments changed and I could only manage the online store and the bricks & mortar shop has been closed during this time. My husband has now completed all chemotherapy and radiotherapy, still waiting for that 8 week mark after treatment to see how successful it was. He does feel better but now he has to go through shoulder replacement and rotor cuff repairs, so this will now happen in January just before a holiday.

I haven't scrapped in just so long, but I have been reading lots of blogs and planning lots for 2014.
Barbie, has had a little time with me during all of this, and scrapped to her hearts delight. I will share her layouts below.

First Layout is from UHK Gallery from paper range My Precious

Second Layout is from UHK Gallery paper range Tropical Fruits
