Let’s Create for SANDS February 2009

Let’s Create 2009, an all day scrapbooking and card making event was held on Saturday, 28th February.  The aim was to raise money for the  SANDS (Stillborn and Neonatal Death Support) charity and we successfully raised $530.00.

Thank you to everyone that participated.

A great day was had by all with 30 participants, 60 lucky door prizes given away and 6 major door prizes distributed through out the day.

We had many requests to organise another one later in the year.  If you would like to be notified about upcoming events, please send me an email at jenny@assentialscrapbooking.com and provide me with your name and email address.

Happy Scrapbooking!

Stock Arrival

I’ve had some fantastic stock arrive this week - pop over to the online store to check out all the new arrivals.

One of my favourites would have to be the new Artisitic Expression 12×12 page overlays, so simple to use and available in six different designs.  Just gorgeous!

Party Time

Well as promised I wanted to keep you up to date with my new party plan venture and oh my goodness what an adventure it’s turned out to be.  I am going full steam ahead doing up to three parties a week and booking more parties from there.  All the feed back has been very positive, so let’s keep our fingers crossed that everything keeps going forward.

Scrapbooking Supplies and Gifts

Sorry everyone, I have dropped the ball in the last few weeks, but I do have an excuse… {drum roll please}… I have just began Assential Scrapbooking Scrapbooking Supplies and Gift as a Party Plan Company.

As most of you know I open my shop around my family and therefore only open on a part-time basis.  However, I decided that I had such a wonderful range of products and gifts that I really needed to get out and show more people what I’ve got.

With some hard work and planning I conducted my first Assential Scrapbooking party last Saturday, it was FANTASTIC. I really enjoyed showing our range of products to other people who I don’t usually have contact with and introducing non scrapbookers to the wonderful world of scrapbooking.

As I head into this new venture, I’ll try to keep you up-to-date, so make sure to come back and check out what I’m up to.

Happy Scrapbooking!
