21 September

Hi all, we had a nice relaxing day again, with a few of us working on cards and Kylie W scrapping up a storm with pages of her boys. No news yet on the retreat, we will endeavour to find out if the retreat is still on and if not, I will try to organise a Simplycrafty for October. Will get back to you all on that. Have a great month and hopefully see you in October at the retreat or at our usual venue.

Christmas in July

Hi ladies, we had a lovely day at Simplycrafty, our usual yummy lunch and deserts and of course, our secret santa, never seen so many grow ladies so excited............Bev was so excited she was drinking her wash tape!!!
Might not look like it, but I did get a gift, I got a Kaiser Christmas off the page wreath which I will bring to the next retreat to decorate.
I have just rang Woolworths to let them know there is going to be lots of crazy ladies looking for Banana pies............
Thank you for a lovely day ladies.
We look some photos below to show what amazing gifts you can get for $5.
Our next Simplycrafty is 10th August, only 2 weeks away!! Hope to you see you all there,
Linda and Dilys

Christmas in July

We had a lovely get together yesterday, quite a few joined in the card swap and I will have photos of the cards asap.

I had made some enamel "dots" and they turned out quite well, Shandell has a picture on the Simplycrafty facebook page. It was good to see a few of the ladies putting them to good use. I will endeavour to make more as I got a BIG bag of beads and am quite happy to share them.

Just to confirm, the next Simply Crafty is on 27th July - not the 2nd as shown on the blog.

We will do our usual "Christmas in July" . Something lovely for lunch, please let me know if you are bringing sweet or savoury, and a Secret Santa gift to the value of $5.00.

The card swap for July will be a Christmas Card, please let me know at least a week beforehand, if you are joining in the card swap.

Also can you let me know at least a week beforehand, if you will be coming.

Thanks ladies, take care and have a wonderful month, looking forward to seeing you in July.

15 June

Hi Ladies,
Just a heads up, we have purchased some new plates for the cuttlebug for an amazing price of $29.95 for the B plates and the C plate (Bev I have yours as well and you get some change). Bit of a bargain there from Craftonline, amazing service, ordered them Monday and they were here today!!!! Danielle, couldn't get the blades for the cricut trimmer as they were sold out. Highly recommend the site, plus if you spend more than $50.00 it is free postage.

Our next get together is on 15th June and we look forward to seeing you there, don't forget to let us know if you are coming, thanks.

We have decided to start the swaps up again and the swap for June is male birthday card. Please let us know who is joining in so that we can have the numbers at least a week before so that we can let people know how many to do, thanks ladies.

We hope you all have a good month, take care and look forward to seeing you on the 15th June.

Cheers,

Dilys and Linda

Happy New Year

Hi ladies, we hope you all had a lovely Christmas and New Year.
The dates for 2014 have been put in the side bar. I notice that the April meeting is on Easter Sunday and I have been in touch with the centre manager to try to get this changed for the week before.
Please note that we couldn’t get a suitable date for January and there will be no meeting in March and October due to the retreats. I will get firm dates from Kerrie as soon as possible to let everybody know. If you need to contact Kerry direct, let me know and I will get her email address to you.
As we discussed in December, the rent for the rooms has been increased so we went in favour of increasing the monthly fee to $8.00.
Also another thing, can you let us know at least a week in advance if you are or are not coming to the monthly meets, so that we can decide if we have sufficient numbers to rent the whole room or just half room, thereby cutting down on expenditure, thanks ladies.
See you in February.

Linda
