ELLE"S BELLES CRAFT GETAWAY

Hi Everyone,

Looks like I won't be able to attend the Kaszazz Conference as planned. The return flight would cost $515 and I honestly can't afford that.

Instead, I will spend the weekend updating my workshop album and organising future workshops for this month.

We have a lot of new workshops and they are stunning.

Bye for now, Fiona.

February Update

Hi Everyone,

I must explain why I have been missing in action. My grandfather has been really unwell and passed away on the 1st March. I had been spending time with him at the Retirement Village. Pop reached the remarkable age of 98 and a half years.

May you rest in peace, Pop.

I will endeavour to try and get the newsletter out before the end of the week.

Happy Scrappin, Fiona.

HI TO EVERYONE!

Hi Girls,

Thought I had better explain why I have gone missing in action. I have had kitten troubles and I had to have time to deal with my losses. Anyway, I now have a beautiful memorial garden for my 2 "kitty angels".

Alice's toy poodle has never left my side through this ordeal. She is just gorgeous.

Anyway, I fully intend on getting back to regular posts about Kaszazz and will be posting those much awaited projects that I was talking about before.

Thanks girls for your patience, Fiona.

TEAM TRAINING DAY

Hi Everyone,

The Team Training Day went well. Everyone loved the new products. I will be uploading the new product flyer.

It was great to meet Amanda and Nisha who travelled a long way to attend, and of course, Kelly who had travelled from Coffs Harbour. Annette, Carmen and Marg enjoyed the day as well.

The cards we made were magnificent. Thanks to Amanda Cordingley for designing them. As it was, we didn't do the layout as some of the ladies had to leave to do their travelling.

I showed the girls some of the projects I had been working on and they would like me to post instructions and photos. So please stay tuned for those later on.

Cheers, Fiona.

TEAM TRAINING DAY COMPETITION

Hi Everyone,

Team Training Day is on this Saturday, the 15th January. The new products are just gorgeous, and I can't wait to share them with you.

As consultants, there is a competition to design a project. This time, we have to include one of our sticky bling words, and of course, use only Kaszazz products.

There are 5 words in our Sticky Bling Words and include: Cherish, Family, Friends, Love and Princess.

I better get busy with my projects.

Cheers, Fiona.

STERLING SILVER ROLLAGRAPH BUTTERFLY CARDS

Hi Everyone,

I held the Sterling Silver Rollagraph Butterfly Card Workshop tonight and everyone enjoyed it. Thank you to Carmen, Marg, Annette and Stacey for attending. It was also excellent value for $20.

I suggested to the girls to do the cards again in a different colour, and the girls thought this was a good idea. Carmen has picked the colour red, Marg has picked the colour green, Annette picked the colour orange and Stacey picked the colour pink, and I have picked the colour purple.

Hopefully, I can share their creations with you next week.

Cheers, Fiona.

NEW CLOCK FOR MY STUDIO

Hi Everyone,

This afternoon I decided a new clock was in order for my studio. I loved the new paper release in September and wanted to use the "Cyan Jade" SB Foundations Paper for it. For the numbers, I painted our chipboard numbers in Pitch Black and also edged the clock in Pitch Black Paint.

To embellish, I used the rub-ons: some of the flourishes from "Flourish and Floral Bling", and some words from "Elegant Inspirations Bling". I love the large daisies and had to use these as well as the small daisy for the centre of the clock. Anyway, I was really happy with the end result.

Cheers, Fiona
