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!!

Merry Kissmas!!!

tick tock tick tock tick tock!!!

Yes, it was tick tock tick tock tick tock for me all week.  Trying to find time...steal time to upload the gorgeous dottie anns and magic mesh that I've received countless emails about!  Well, they're up!!!  And no sooner than I had gotten them ready to go when there was a knock at the door and a big box of yummy new goodies arrived!!!  

Here are some of the yummy new goodies that have arrived!!

Carolee's Creations Tiny Pink Alphas!!!

Pink Paislee Sweet Cakes Range - perfect for summer layouts!!!

And if you wanted some untraditional funky Chrissy papers...you can't go wrong with Sassafras Lass brand new Life at the Pole papers!!

Yummy new dottie anns and magic mesh!!  I decided to take group photos of them rather than individually so that you can compare the colours.  The rolls you see in the photos are the 1yard rolls.  I've decided to list them as 1/2 yard rolls for $2 each or if you want the full 1 yard roll, then buy two lots.  Both are self adhesive and I love the rainbow of colours!!

The scrapart bags have proven very popular and they are only available for a very short time!!  For $39.95 you get free delivery direct from my supplier!!

Happy shopping!!!

And the winner is......

Ok...now for some eye candy...layouts using Ki Sheer Delights from Kelly Ingram!!!

Phillip Island" layout product list:  KI Memories Sheer Delight - Blue Swirl,  Queen & Co Felt Ribbon - 4.7" Chocolate Vine,Rosa Moka Alphabet Stickers
"Darling Daughter" product list:  KI Memories Sheer Delight - White Dots,  Sassafras Lass Patterned Paper - Hog Heaven - Fun Filled Forest,  Pink Paislee Rub-ons - Pop Fashion Icons, Carolees Creations Aqua Tiny Alphabet Stickers, Sassafras Lass Chipboard

I'm just getting ready to load up some new stuff into the shop over the next few days, but I thought I'd share a sneak peek - yes...magic mesh and Dottie Anns in all luscious luscious colours!!  $2 for about 1/2 yard (45 cms).  The rolls that you see are in one yard rolls, so I'll chop them in half if you just want 1/2 yard or you can just buy a yard for $4.  Thought that would make it affordable for everyone to get a rainbow of colours.

Sassafras Lass Happy Place, Woodland whimsy and Hog Heaven are now in stock!!  

Scrapware restock - especially the beautiful birdhouse and embellishment kit which sold out within a few hours the first time I put them in the shop!

Ki Memories Festive Kit and Curly alpha rub ons - check it out here

Ki Memories Sheer Delights - I can't rave about these beauties enough...they are absolutely wonderful to work with.  Danielle did a fabulous job with the sheers I sent her, teamed up with gorgeous Sassafrass Lass and Queen and Co lace trims!

Gorgeous Mini album using the Burst 2 sheer cut up as her album cover.

Next using the sheer as the background in place of cardstock (it's sturdy enough to stand when propped up against something without bending and sagging - that's a yay in my books!!)
