20th May

Well ladies, we had another lovely day scrapping/chatting/laughing and of course, eating. So much yummy food and so little time to eat!!!! The swaps went really well, some lovely sympathy cards and great ideas for the banner embellishments, its amazing to see how many different ideas are out there, now we just need the time to scrap with the lovely bunting. In June, Pauline has been good enough to organise a "make and take" for us. We will get to make 2 cards and Pauline will show us how to make them. The packs will be $8.00, and for those ladies who wish to take part, can you let us know so that we can give Pauline some idea of numbers, I am sure we all need a couple of more cards in our stash, I have found the swap cards to be so handy for when I forget to make a card for someone's birthday, but then I just look in my box and hey presto.... I get alot of praise LOL. The swap for next month (17th June) is a friendship/thinking of you card and a travel embelishment. So ladies, if want to take part, please let us know at least by the 10th June to give us plenty of time for numbers. Shandell is going to be kind enought to post pictures of last month's swaps on her blog, so hop over there to see the lovely cards. We all wished Lorelle good luck with her surgery, the latest news is that she is home and doing okay, take care and have a good rest Lorelle. Bye for now,have a good mont, Linda and Dilys

15th April 2012

Hi ladies, another lovely day spent yesterday, lots of catching up with everybody and some creativity going on. The swaps were great as usual and well worth taking part to get all those lovely cards/embellishments.
The next swap for May is get well/sympathy cards and bunting embelishments, so those ladies that wish to take part, let me know as soon as possible and I can pass the numbers on.
I have put a list of the swaps in the side bar for people to check out in advance what we are doing, if you have any ideas, please let us know, I have taken the liberty of putting a few ideas there for the months we hadn't filled in.
We welcomed Sheryl Phayre yesterday, Sherly came along to see what was happening on our Sunday get togethers and stayed for a while to chat and check out some of the work that we did. We look forward to seeing her again.
I will get photos of the swaps posted as soon as I can.
Take care, have a good month and hopefully see you on 20th May.
Linda

18th March

Hi ladies, we had another day of chatting, creating and of course, eating. One thing is for sure, you can't diet when we have crafty Sundays!.
Talking of food and diet, it is the retreat this weekend, if you can't come for the weekend, you can come out for the day, morning tea, lunch, afternoon tea, and dinner, plus a day of scrapbooking/creating, all for $65.00.
SWAPS - next months swaps are:
cards - baby
embelishments - journal
So ladies, if you want to join in, please let us know at least one week before the next S'crafty day.
I must admit I didn't join in the last swap but after seeing the great cards and embelishments, I wish I had, they were great.
Have a great month, and for those that are going, see you next w/end.
Dilys & Linda

19th February 2012

Hi ladies, we had a lovely day on Sunday, it was good to see everyone and catch up, lots of chatting and laughter. As usual the swaps were very creative, didn't get photos but I am sure our lovely "swap coordinator" Miss Shandell will put photos of them on her blog.
The swap next month will be a boys card and the embelishment is "calendar". Can you let us know before the 11th March if you are joining in.
Also, because next month it is the week before the retreat, can you let us know how many will be coming on the 18th March so that we can organise the room as if there is only a few, we can just book the smaller room for March.
Thanks ladies,
have a good month,
Linda and Dilys

19th February 2012

Hi ladies, we had a great time at our first meeting of the year on the 22nd January, lovely to see so many of you there, welcome back Cassie, good to see you again.
Many congratulations to Amanda and Cathie on the birth of their babies, no doubt you will be calling in to see us to "show and tell". Look forward to seeing lots of baby pages.
We are organising swaps again for the year, Shandell has come up with a lot of great ideas (thanks Shandell) and there is a list below.
The first is for February, and it will be:

Cards – girls birthday
Embelishments - School

Can you let us know by the 12th February who is taking part. That is the cut off date to give us at least a week to do them. I will update you during the time before that so that you can get started.

Some of the ideas for the following year are:

Cards:

Mar – Boys birthday
Apr – Baby – birth, shower, christening
May – Sympathy
June – Get Well / Friendship
July – Christmas
Aug – Men birthday
Sept – Woman birthday


Embelishments –

Mar – Calendars
Apr – Journalling spots
May – Bunting
June – Travel
July - Christmas tag

I’m sure we can add more ideas and change dates around to suit everyone, this is just a basic list.

Thanks for that ladies, don't forget to let us know if you are taking part in the swap and also if possible can you let us know how many will be attending next month.

Thanks

Linda and Dilys
