Scrapbook & Papercraft Convention & Expo

As you know I went to the Scrapbook & Papercraft Expo in Brisbane at the long weekend. What a great excuse for a girls weekend. Shandell, Jenny & I had the funnest time (I know that's not a word but it is so true).
We had dinner and drinks at The Brekky Creek Hotel on the Saturday night. If you haven't been there before, you should try next time your in Brissy. The atmosphere is wonderful and the food was absolutely divine. On Sunday we went to the Scrapbook Expo and shopped and shopped and chatted and I did a Printblocks Class and made a lovely album with the new Your story machine. The Your Story is a brand new laminating and thermal binding maching from Provocraft. It hasn't arrived in Australia yet but will only be a couple more weeks. I'll let you know when they're available. The expo was great, imagine all those scrapbooking stores under one roof with heaps of demos and presentations. We easily spent the whole day there checking things out and learning heaps.
Sunday night we were invited to a Printblocks party at Southbank. It was great to get together with other shop owners and suppliers and let our hair down for a few hours. There were a few 'famous' scrappers there and it was really nice to meet them. They were such lovely ladies and so down to earth. And just about everyone there won a prize (except me) but I had so much fun it didn't matter. We got heaps of photos of the evening and you can see how much fun we had.
Monday was another trip to the Expo where we did a class each. I made a gorgeous memo board and Shandell made a stunning mini book. I will have to post photos when I get them.
And the drive home which was quite eventful and a great way to top off one of the most enjoyable weekends ever. A quick stop into Krispy Kreme donuts didn't hurt either.

Tammy from Pumpkin Pink is giving away some of her gorgeous chippies. Just head over to her site to see how to enter.
We have all of Tammy's designs in store if you miss out on winning.
Good luck and congratulations Tammy on your wonderful new chippies.

One More Sleep!

Tomorrow Shandell and I head off to the big smoke for the long weekend.

Road Trip!!!

We're staying at a friends place for 3 days of friends, fun & scrapping and no children. We are really going down for the huge Scrapbooking & Papercraft Expo being held at Southbank this weekend but will find time to hit the town as well.

If you haven't checked out the expo site yet, you really should and if you're in Brissy this weekend you should try to get over and have a look. It is a massive exhibition hall FULL of scrapbooking stores showcasing all their latest and greatest. We're all booked in to do some groovy classes so will be full of lots of wonderful ideas when we get back.

Now the reason for this post is to let you know that the store will be closed tomorrow. Sorry for any inconvenience.

If you would like to visit the store but work full time we are open on Wednesday nights between 6.30pm & 8.30pm. We have a class running at this time but the store is available if you want to come and have a look or buy something.

Anyway I hope everyone has a splendid long & safe weekend.

Message from Petrina re: Biggest Morning Tea

Thursday last week I held an online morning tea to raise funds for the Cancer Council. The invitation you are receiving is for the morning tea (a little belated!) but I thought I would send it out to you so you can get the link to my online secure donation page at the Cancer Council. In conjunction with the morning tea I am doing a raffle and it will be drawn tomorrow night. I figure the more people I tell - the more money we can raise. Details of the raffle are on my blog http://scrap-petrina-just-scrap.blogspot.com/ and the prizes are fantastic. For every $5 you donate I will give you a ticket. Please pass this message on to all your scrapbooking friends!! Every dollar raised helps :) Thank you! P.
Warm the teapot and break out the bickies! I'm holding Australia's Biggest Morning Tea as part of Australia's Biggest Morning Tea 2009 and I need your support.
