Crop for Kids!

Yes, it's Crop for Kids time!!!  Last year Crop for Kids managed to raise $12,000 and all the participants had lots of fun!!!  So, please....come to:

Event: Crop For Kids All -Day Fundraising Crop
Date: Saturday, 4th April 2009 (the weekend before Easter)
Time: 10am to 5pm
Venue: Springvale City Hall in SpringvalePrice: Tickets are A$30.00 per person

The Kiti Q shop will be there and it will be a great opportunity to meet my customers!!!  If you don't know anyone, have no one to come with, or it's just you and a friend, then please let me know.....  I'm more than happy to organise a Kiti Q table!  Please email me if you would like me to set something up for you and your friends.

Last year, Crop for Kids launched gorgeous embellishments designed and made exclusively for Crop for Kids.  All these embellishments have been donated by Julie's Craft Stop and Scrapware.  These are all limited editions....once they are gone....they're gone and how can you resist such yummy yummy
 embellishments??  And of course, remember they are for charity and are a bargain at only $3 a pack!  And of course, the embellishments are available at Kiti Q!!  All Silver and Gold sponsors can have the embellishments in their shop, so please hound your LSS and your fav online store to get them in for you!!

In keeping with the Easter theme of the Good Friday Appeal, Julie’s Craft Stop have created this
 chipboard embellishment pack consisting of eggs, a basket and daffodils, all contained within a scalloped border. All pieces are laser-cut and easily popped out. Even the letters pop out of the flowers so you can use the positive or negative image! $3

Scrapware have extended the chipboard people range that they created for Crop for Kids last year. This year we have clothing packs for the people! The images below show the people, the clothes, and what they look like combined. The chipboard people will be available for sale again this year, so customers can buy new boys and girls to dress up! The bow detail on the girl’s pinafore can even be punched out and used as a hair bow! The boy and girl will be sold in one pack $3, and the clothing in a separate pack $3.

For more details on the days events and how to purchase tickets, please check out the Crop for Kids Blog

To get your hands on the embellishments, please head on over to Kiti Q...click here for the magic super speedway to take you from the blog to the shop!!
