Newsletter for Thursday 15th November:


Heya from all of us here at NZ Scrapbook!



This week we are launching DESTINATION NZ SCRAPBOOK. We believe we have an awesome store and we want to share it with the world! This month we are extending an invitation NORTH. So if you live in the Whangarei/Northland region be sure to read the second email I am sending tonight for more information about ‘DESTINATION NZ SCRAPBOOK: Whangarei Pick-up’ happening Saturday 8th December. It’s going to be a blast!


~Very excited about this. Yes, we are taking pick up location requests so do suggest your home town for us to consider. This is so much more than just a bus pick up - it is a shopping experience!



Our HOLY MOLEY CRICUT CUTTLEBUG COMBO SALE continues this week. You have until 9pm Saturday 17th November to take advantage of this CRAZY special. Purchase the original Cricut machine and receive FREE the fantastic Cuttlebug die cutting and embossing machine. That’s a gift valued at $149.95!!



The ALTERED BOOK CLUB, ALTERED ARTS EXHIBITION has been such a great success that we have decided to extend its display. I have been overwhelmed by its positive response and am very proud of all our artists that have been involved. If you have not been in to see this wonderful display I would highly recommend visiting and taking in some of the inspirational creativity expressed through this great art form. You may wish to time your visit with one of our free MEET THE ARTISTS, FLOOR TALKS. The next one is scheduled for Saturday 17th November at 1pm. This will be a perfect time to hear how the artwork came about and ask any questions you may have.


~ bring on the tricky questions! see if you can hear the creaking as I work out a response or buff it on to one of the other artists :)



In keeping with our ALTERED ARTS EXHIBITION we have added a number of related classes including: Altered books 101 with Kathleen (that’s me!~fast, fun and I promise to limit my usage of the word ' whizzy' to a maximum of 6 times...it just comes out!), Name Canvas Class with Wendy (super cool teacher!) and Key Plate Album Class with Kathleen. Check our website http://www.nzscrapbook.co.nz/ for the class calendar or phone (09) 912 0665 for further details.
