New Collections from Authentique

Three NEW Collections from Authentique   A countdown to Christmas paper from the Festive collection Hello everyone, Three beautiful new ranges of papers, stickers and embellishments have arrived in store from stylish brand Authentique.  Authentique is a firm favourite of the staff here at NZ Scrapbook, aside from lovely designs and colour ways Authentique papers are a superb quality.  Printed on heavy weight textured stock the papers cut beautifully and lie flat and smooth as you create with them.  It's hard to pick a favourite from the three new collections but I can see the Festive collection is going to be very popular.  It's not to early to start on your Christmas Cards! Festive Sticker Sheet - 12" x12" In store now and to be added to our website in next couple of days. Happy creating! ~Kathleen, Linda and the team at NZ Scrapbook

One of the papers from the Lively collection Lively sticker sheet - so many stickers and journal tags on one sheet, great value! A paper from the Fresh collection.  Beautiful vintage designs in elegant cool summer colours and again the sticker sheet.  I just love these!

New Teresa Collins & Layout Workshop New collection Sweet Afternoon and Layout Workshop: This new collection is a real beauty.  In pretty pastel blues, pinks and neutrals it is idea for baby, wedding or any pretty styled page or card you wish to make.  Stand out items include the high quality double-sided papers and the journal block punch out sheets with gorgeous tags, tabs, bunting and frames.  These sheets are just $2.99, a great buy so make sure you look out for those.

NEW Tonic geared border punches New Tonic Border Punches: Tonic have a new range of lovely border punches that are quite unique!  With internal gearing even punching through card is a breeze.  There are a selection of punches available some of which make lace strips rather than borders ready for inking and adhering to your craft projects.  Seems these punches have had quite an interest in the UK with cake decorators.  Create your own paper tissue cake wraps and metallic lace ribbons - great idea!   By the way, we have an excellent range of Tonic products - high quality crafting tools.

Beautiful NEW collection from Authentique just arrived

New collection double sided papers truly are Delightful

Authentique may be a new company to join the scrapbooking ranks but is quickly becoming a firm favourite in our store by both staff and customers.

We have had THREE new collections arrive today.  Available NOW is Delightful - a pretty pastel range of pinks, marmalades and mints especially suited to a new arrival layout but equally attractive for girl or feminine layouts.  This collection includes paper pads, stickers and diecut sheets and lettering.  We LOVE the super heavy weight textured card the papers are made of.

The other two ranges are Carefree and Loyal, both are real stars!  These will be available for purchase from Friday 18th May at 7pm.  Save the date as we will be hosting a Product Preview event at this time where you will have first choice of these exciting collections and will make a bright and colourful layout using the Carefree collection.  More info and page layout sample to come, early bookings can be made by phoning 09 912 0665.

Again, have a beaut weekend and look forward to seeing you in store.
