Texture paste

ever wanted to know how to use texture paste? i know i have...i can never seem to get it right.

Well Marion will be doing a demo after all the classes have finished at the fundraiser on how to get the effect on the cover of this beautiful folder.

A gold coin donation is all it takes to watch the demo and take away some easy to follow notes.

No need to book, we will take as many ladies as we can fit in the room and it will happen at approx 7.30pm

thanks Marion for all your hard work

Shop and Crop

Shop and Crop @ Lambton will have available to purchase at the event new BasicGrey, Kaisercraft, Fancy Pants, My Minds Eye, co-ordinated kits and lots more. And we take cash only for purchases. Sasha has some great new stuff and I know i am looking forward to seeing it and yes buying it...lol.

Those ladies doing Marion and Jen's classes the cost of the kits have been confirmed at $26 each and you Can purchase these on the day, there will be plenty for everyone and maybe even a few extras if anyone is looking to purchase the kit and notes if you were unable to get into the class. Class notes an additional $5

I hope everyone is busy making their name tags. Scrap Needs @ Cardiff will be sponsoring the Best Name Tag comp and the winner will receive a $20 voucher. So if you have not already made your name tag maybe now is the time to get busy.

something new

Hi everyone

This year we are going to try something new to make the day more memorable for you and to help raise more money for MD

So what is it you ask?
It’s a Crazy Booth
What’s a crazy booth you ask?
A Crazy Booth is a chance for you and your scrap buddies have some fun and crazy photos taken to remember the day by.

Lauren will be there at the ready with her camera and some rather funky walls as a back drop wanting to take some rather goofy photos for you and your buddies.

Each group will get 10 mins with Lauren and she will have a few fun props at the ready to help make the photos all that more goofy and feel free to bring your own if you like. For a bigger donation Lauren might be available for an extended sitting

Bookings will be essential and limited

Donation is only $10 for all groups (you can also book in to have photos taken of just you) this will get you 3-5 photos, if you want more photos it will be at a cost of $1 each. We ask that you bring with you your own disc for Lauren to burn the photos onto or if you do not have one or forget it there will be a small charge of $1 per disc. The idea is that one person in the group gets a copy of the photos to then pass onto everyone else BUT if everyone in the group has their own disc we are happy to burn the photos for you.

what a great way to remember this day with your friends and to also help raise much needed money for MD.

Here are a few photos we took last year at the club to give you some kind of idea what I am talking about.

Bookings can be taken now or on the day if spots are still available. email me at newcastlefundraiser@hotmail.com

Please remember every $$ made from the Crazy Booth goes straight to MD NSW.

Sneak Peek

For those ladies signed up to do Marions class here are a couple of sneak peeks so you have an idea of what you might be in for.

The LO is STUNNING as Marion's work always is.

I will be back as soon as i can with sneak peeks fromt he other classes.

Hi Everyone

its not long now till the big day.
here are a few things you may need to know

1. Firstly and most importantly, those of you who have not yet paid can you please arrange to do so ASAP. Payment is required by July 1st, after this date I can no longer hold your spot. Thank you very much to those ladies who have already paid.

2. There are still a few places left in the classes with Marion Werren (who is teaching a girly LO that includes the use of fabric...sounds stunning as Marions work always is) Jen Hall (will have details soon) and Peta MacBeth (who is teaching a blind scrapping class....sounds like lots of fun) So email me ASAP if you were wanting to book in. There will also be kits available again this year, will keep you updated when I have an approx price per kit. I will also email those who have booked in soon with photo requirements.

3. Doors open at 9am and close at 9pm, you are free to come and go at any time during the day. Classes will be: Marion 10am-12noon - Peta 1pm-3pm and Jen 4pm-6pm

4. For those of you who have not been to the club in a long while, there is a new chef and the food at the bistro is very yummy and they are highly organised. I do not expect any problems like we had last year.

5. come dressed in black, white and red, the colours of MD NSW and who knows you just might win yourself the best dressed prize

6. Create a name tag so everyone knows who you are and also to be in the running to win a prize for the best name tag (it does not have to be in red, black and white)

7. and finally ENJOY THE DAY!!!!

looking forward to seeing everyone again and meeting a few new people. I can not believe the crop day is almost here

thanks everyone for your continued support, it means a lot to me, Lisa and those living with MD
