Hello Everyone, and welcome to the February Newsletter. I have made some new and exciting changes at Scrapville for 2013, and I hope you will get the chance to call in and see the new look shop. With new shelving, displays and a dab of paint, we are refreshed and raring to go. Now, lets see what else is happening!
MONTHLY PACK
This month we are running with a pack from Kaisercraft’s latest range, 75 cents. 75 cents is a gorgeous collection that has a vintage theme. This range is extremely versatile as it has three central colours; dusty turquoise, black and soft brown, able to compliment a variety of different photos. The quirky elements found throughout the collection include butterflies, vintage labels, florals and antique frames. These images are found throughout the embellishments creating harmony within this collection.

The Monthly Pack Challenge is for both a Layout and a Card, but you may enter either or both.
The Challenges must be received by Pumpkin Time 28th February. You can upload your challenges to the Linky with a direct link to your Challenge Post on your Blog. If you do not have a Blog, then drop or email your entry into Scrapville.

MONTHLY SKETCH CHALLENGES
The January/February Sketch Challenge is at the halfway mark now, and your challenge entries expire at Pumpkin Time Thursday, February 14th. Be quick, the pumpkin is ticking, and don’t forget to drop your layouts in if you don’t have a Blog or are having trouble using the Linky…..
Starting with the Jan/Feb Sketches we have added a Linky to the Blog so that you can add all your own images to the challenges, which in turn will take us to your Blog. Please make sure you link the Challenge Page on your Blog when uploading. Anyone having difficulties uploading to the Linky can send us an email and we’ll get back to you with help.
SPELLBINDERS DESIGNER CARD CLASS
On Saturday, February 23rd we will be running a morning and afternoon Spellbinders Card Class, instructed by Linda Lucas from the Spellbinders SpellBlogger Team, and as a DT Member of the Australian Distributors of Spellbinders. These classes are an absolute must do, with firsthand experience using Spellbinders fantastic products, partner products and demo afterward.
Linda has recently returned from the USA where Spellbinders had her sampling and playing with the latest Spellbinder products. Linda is a member of several design teams and has been published multiple times online, in magazines, and in books. Linda describes her style as eclectic, vintage with a touch of shabby. She loves to embellish with lace, pearls, ribbon and of course, Spellbinders dies!
As numbers will be limited for this class, bookings will only be accepted upon full payment, on a strictly first in basis. Currently they are filling fast, and due to limited numbers there are no exceptions. We're looking forward to sharing Linda's expertise with you, so don't miss this wonderful experience.
TECHNIQUE CLASS RE-RUN - WINTER WONDERLAND
Due to the popularity of our Utee Serendipity class, we will be re-running this on Tuesday, 12th February at 7pm. If you would like to see the sample please call into the store. This class will take you into a new area of embossing techniques, which is quite unique. You will be given the requirements list upon booking, and the class includes the Kit.
BLIND CROPVILLE
The February BCV has been scheduled for Saturday, 16th February, numbers permitting. All BCV’s offer techniques, and require a basic scrapbooking knowledge. This is not a usual instructional class where you are given an exact placement instruction or measurement; it is more an interpretation where you will make these decisions. You will be encouraged to add a bit of whimsy to the unknown and challenge yourself. At the completion of the BCV the reveal will show you a sample of how the initial layout can be interpreted. Bookings essential.
