Prima Weekend

Good Morning!

There have been a few changes to our Prima Weekend…

Due to the majority of people who were booked in for Jamie’s Bloom Girl class were travelling down from Geraldton, she is now coming up here earlier and will be teaching her wonderful 6 hour workshop here in Geraldton. There are still a couple of spots left if you would like to book in!

As Janine is teaching in Perth and I can’t be in 2 places at once – I have asked Suzanne from the Scrapbook Store to host Janine which she has 🙂

So that brings us to another small issue – location. The hall was already booked on the Saturday so both days will now be held at the Master Builders Training Centre.

If you haven’t made full payment – please do so asap.

Thanks!

Changes…

Hello! Finally a new post from me. Due to the upgrade and change of our website and blog I haven’t been able to post for 6 weeks as a lot of things went missing etc during the process.

The new website is live as you can see, I am still busing adjusting bits and pieces and will start uploading products on Monday.

In case you didn’t know – we moved the shop to my house, but have since had a wonderful opportunity come up and we have actually re-opened a shop on Chapman Road at the old Railway. We will be open at the following times:

Thursday – 9.30am till 2pm
Friday – 9.30am till 2pm
Saturday – 9.30am till 1pm
Sunday – 8.00am till 12pm

I will update the blog again on Monday – this is really just a test post 🙂

Wishing everyone a wonderful weekend!

A mini album for my sister…

IMG_49771

When we were growing up my grandparents lived in a different city, we lived in Oudenbosch and they lived in Rotterdam (the Netherlands), and then when I was 7 we moved to Australia. All my other cousins were spread around as well.

To keep my Oma and Opa up to date with their grand kids,  my parents and Aunts and Uncles used to send photos to them regularly. So my Oma started a photo album for each of her (at that time) 25 grandkids.

Not long after my Opa passed away in 1984 she gave us all our albums back which we have all treasured.

Unfortunately my sisters was one of those sticky paged ones, so I offered to remake it for her. Last week it was finally that time! Here is what I created for her….

p.s. Yes I know there are not  a huge amount of photos… but while we were growing up not as many photos were taken as these days 🙂

I haven’t included all the pages as I really wouldn’t want to bore you too much!

My sister doesn’t like fussy pages, prefers the simple but nice look. Hope she likes it! (it’s on its way in the mail right now!)

Products used:
* kaisercraft mini album (6×8″)
* Kaisercraft 6×8″ pocket page inserts (various designs)
* Kaisercraft Happy Snaps collection papers and collectables
* Kaisercraft Happy Snaps captured Moments 3×4 and 4×6″ cards.
