I'm not the most frequent Blogger but I'm trying...

Our new catalogue has been released and it is amazing!  All the gorgeous products have been arranged in collections - helping you find your way through all the beautifulness!!

I'm very proud to have three of my workshops in the catalogue - and my husband is proud he is famous!

With the catalogue came lots of new products, including the very pretty Botanicals range - think vintage birdcages, butterflies, roses and hydrangeas.

We also launched an amazing range of embellishments, including masking tapes in 12 designs - a great way to add an extra detail very quickly.

Not forgetting the huge range of metal embellishments - very steampunk!

You can see the full catalogue online at www.kaszazz.com but better yet, call me today to find out how you can get your free copy!

You'll notice down the left hand side I've updated the schedule - I'll now be offering regular scrapping and card making nights so you can lock those dates into your diary.
Hope you see you soon!

Only one more sleep...

I can't believe it is that time already...CRAFT FAIR!!!! Tomorrow I get the very exciting priviledge of joining all the exhibitors in the big set up. I love the energy of the hall filled with forklifts and boxes overflowing with beautiful craft goodies!!!

As usual we will be bringing you all the wonderful goodies from Kaszazz at our very own stand. I'm excited about the display - a bit different than usual but hopefully really gorgeous - I can't wait to hear what you think!


As well we'll be demonstrating all day every day on the stand - lots of techniques and fun ideas to watch, plus you can have a close up look at some of our brand new products - fabulous new albums, the Baby Milestones Collection and more.

As a special treat, at 1.30pm on each day of the show a different consultant will be demonstrating how to take your papercraft "from drab to fab" - we think there will be something for everyone at this demonstration, so we hope you can come!

Once craft fair is over it is time to celebrate, so I'll be hosting a post-Craft Fair demonstration on Saturday 19th August at 3pm. We'll have some bubbles and nibbles, and everyone will have a chance to make a gorgeous card using some of our newest products. Everyone will go in the draw for a lucky door prize, and if you bring someone I haven't met before - you'll get two tickets!

I've also got some great new workshops coming up - check the calendar on the side and book in today.

See you at the Fair...

so much fabulousness...

I'm not sure fabulousness is really a word but my life is so filled with it right now I don't care what it is called! Firstly I spent a week in the beautiful Barossa Valley with my gorgeous husband - we had a great time visiting wineries, eating cheese and generally hanging out together. It was a really special trip, and it was made possible by my fabulous Kaszazz business - what could be better than that!

And the other fabulousness?! I'm absolutely loving the new product release from Kaszazz - with a 1950s theme, stamps and papers to match, it is, well Fabulous!!



And more? I'm so thrilled to welcome two more ladies to our fabulous Divas this month - we're now up to 40 Divas, how exciting!

To celebrate I'm hosting lots of great events in the next couple of months - check out the calendar on the side of the page. Hope to see your fabulous self soon!

Off I go...

Happy St Patrick's Day

It is a very special day for me today - it is my 10th Wedding anniversary, of course it is the happiest day of the year for Irish people everywhere, and I'm getting ready for an amazing trip! A weekend at the Kaszazz conference with some amazing ladies and lots of fun, followed by a week of gourmet delights with my lovely husband in the Barossa! I can't wait! Check out my swap and competition entries (don't look too closely though...)



For those of you who would love to see all the great new products and workshops, come over to my place on Tuesday 29th March at 7.30pm, share some bubbly, win some prizes and have a fun night!

You Tube!

Check it out, I finally made it to You Tube! I've been meaning to do this since Christmas but thought I'd better get it in today - the very last day of the competition! Nothing like leaving things to the last minute to put yourself under pressure! Enjoy...

on holidays...

There is something special about the school holidays, I do love not having to rush everyone around, I love that the kids are so much more relaxed and happy. Here is a note I've just received from my gorgeous little man - he really is my sunshine



My storm is the very fractious miss Ava, I know that I knew 3 was worse than 2, but I think I forgot...I'm now blogging pretending to do "very important work" so she'll leave me alone for 5 minutes!

Anyway, I have been busy, cleaning, decluttering - another new year's resolution!



Check out my new ribbon organiser - I made it myself!



Can't wait to post some pics of my new creations, it is just that most of them aren't finished yet...but the new papers are gorgeous and I'm in love with Big Al!

ok, better go back to being Mum now...

getting back into the swing...

Gosh it is a bit scary when you realise you haven't posted on your blog for 6 months! Oops...

So now is the time for making new year's resolutions. I'm a sucker for this - I think I'm the eternal optimist who needs to believe the new year means a clean slate. So I've made a few, mostly around my new favourite quote - "If you love these children, love their mother". So this year I'm focusing on things that will add to my happiness, strength, health etc. I think that covers a lot!

I can't post any of my new creations because they are all using the new products we're launching on the 15th. Lots of great new stamps which I'm loving, including one I have been wishing for for ages!

So I'm going to post a few of the ones I've done since July when I last posted! Enjoy!






I hope to see lots of you on Tuesday 18th January at 7.30pm for my own new product launch - come and have a glass of bubbly and a fun night out - maybe win some prizes, and have a play with these great new products.

See you soon!
