CHA 2012 Sneak Peeks

Most people in this industry will know at this time of the year CHA (Craft and Hobby Association) has a huge conference that occurs at the end of January in Anaheim USA.  All the companies in this industry showcase their new releases.

This past year has seen many changes in the scrapbooking industry with companies being amalgamated and corporate bodies taking over.

Below I am including a list for everyone to go and have a look at what is coming up for you.  Take your time, get a coffee or tea and enjoy what you see.  Let me know if there are products you would like me to stock.

Cyber Cropping for January has now started

Happy New Year for 1012

Week 1 Sketch for Cyber Cropping has been uploaded to forum

Each Monday for the month of January another sketch will be uploaded.  Entries have until the end of first week in February to be uploaded into gallery and marked with Week 1 etc.  Prizes will be awarded in the 2nd week of February. Prize will be $50 gift voucher to be spent in shop www.scrappykapers.com for each week of the cyber crop.  Good luck everyone.

After Christmas Cheers.....

Goodness we have nearly hit the end of 2011.  Christmas is over and surely we must have lots of photos to scrap.  Can't wait to see what everyone comes up with and loading into the galley.

We say goodbye to Wendy Carter as a member of The Design Team.  Wendy has been a tremendous help to all of us over the years, but Wendy is just so busy these days and feels her input is just not enough, so this will free up her time to continue with what she loves best.  We all thank Wendy for all her help and will still see her in the gallery and on Facebook

This brings me to the next call

I am telling myself to get into the spirit of Christmas, even though I will be away, I need to add some Christmas Spirit around the shops and home and where better to start than Tim Holtz' 12 Tags of Christmas.  Tag 1 below

Where Has The Time Gone.................

WOW, we have already hit the 1st day of December 2011. We have 24 days left before Christmas is here, and that means busy times for us all.

Scrappy Kapers has opened the new store in Dalwallinu officially on Monday 28th November.  Lots of new products for the scrappers in Dalwallinu.  The store is being managed by Karen and I will pop in every now and again for restocking and to say hello to everyone.
