Works of Art....
Here are some of the lovely entries in the LSBS think pink challenges - card sketch challenge and BRA challenge! These lovely ladies - who aren't members of LSBS - joined in the fun and I have now uploaded their entries into the gallery at LSBS!
Deb's "thank you" card
Heather's Happy Birthday Card
Leisel's "it's a girl" card.
Nadine's stunning bra!
Nadine's friend, Tracey's bra....
Leisel's bra (although I think Deb & Heather helped a bit too with this one!)
My girls also did a bra each - but I haven't had a chance to photograph them yet. Tara also did a LO which I must scan and upload!
Anyone else who actually did some scrapping on the night (unlike me who didn't even get my gear out of the box!!) feel free to email me copies and I'll upload to the blog!
Same with photos! Don't forget to send them to me!
Gypsy has already done a LO (digi) with a photo from the GNI Crop - go Gyps - see it at Scrap Chat!

Position VACANT
I'm looking for a new TREASURER!!!
Poor DH made a slight error in his calculations for our fund raising total (he mistakenly thought the $20 bundles had $200 in them but there were only $100 bundles)......so our total has been adjusted......to the still impressive $960 with a few more dollars to come hopefully before the end of October!
Little Scrapbook Shop total is at almost $3000 with more crops, silent auctions and challenges to come!

Thanks again for everyone's support!
What a FABULOUS Night!
A huge THANK YOU to everyone who attended, helped and/or donated for this fabulous night that went off without a hitch! We had a great crowd of about 40 people, amazing food (thank you SO MUCH Kerryn), fun & laughter, great cards to make (thank YOU Chelle!) and we even raised a dollar or two for women's cancer research!!! At the moment (with a few more dollars to come in yet) we look to have raised almost $1200!!! I am so thrilled that we have managed to raise so much (given I originally estimated we'd raise $200!!!)
I'm exhausted today .... so might let some photos tell the story for now!
Kerryn and her famous "chocolate fountain"
The most scrummy 'pink' cupcakes.....divine!
The clothes line....with all the altered bra's on! Even my two girls had a go at this!
Beautiful girls....Leanne, Chelle & Karen!
Monica (Gizmo) and her sister, Lilly!
The Little Scrapbook Shop girls.....me, Kerryn, Gill, Angie, Lisa & Michelle - modelling some of the bras!
Gypsyangel (Karen) and her junior scrapper friends, Emily & Jessica (with the 'girl' cards Chelle made up for the card kits!)
Sweetie Tracey (Tiddlepeep) who donated some lovely handmade goodies for the lucky door prizes!
The Morans = selling raffle tickets!
The raffle winners - Kerryn and Michelle.

Raffle .... Check it out!
How good does this look?
Get your tickets on the night for this great prize! Too much for the lovely bucket I bought for the raffle! But it still looks great!
The Card Kits are done - thank you again Michelle - you're a wonder woman!!! We've decided to sell them for $3 each so we can sell all of them! What a bargain! Includes Michelle's instructions too!
I think we're all set.....Kerryn has the chocolate all set for the chocolate fountain....which everyone is looking forward to!
My next post should be lots of photos from a successful, fun-filled NIGHT!

The Final Countdown
Not long now.... things are really heating up here in preparation for Saturday night! We have PINK stuff everywhere!!
I'm skipping work tomorrow so I can have everything ready (including a tidy house for our visitors)!!!
Received a lovely pack from Little Scrapbook Shop today - yippee - thank you Cath!!! Awesome goodies for the scrap hamper included. Also some lovely items donated by Mijaomi - who's coming to join us on the night - aren't you Michelle???!!!!
The card kits are almost all done (awesome job Chellejamo) - you wait until you see the gorgeous cards Michelle has put together (with the lovely donations from Acacia Paper Craft) for us! I've seen a sneak peek and you will LOVE them! Slight hiccup with receiving the base cards from Kaiser - but hopefully they'll be here tomorrow - other wise Plan B will have to come into action! Thanks too to Michelle's Mum from the Stamp Shak for donating the card kit bags and ribbon.
Check out this list of activities (all optional) planned for the night.....doesn't it sound awesome!
* Collect your Lucky Door Prize ticket on arrival (multiple draws throughout the night)
* Add your name and contact details to the Scrap Trolley Bag Competition! See list at front door.(The Crop that raises the most money will raffle off a Scrap Trolley Bag)

* Check out the two Sketch Competitions (layout & card) from Little Scrapbook Shop - $1 per entry
* Think Pink Competition (layout &/or off the page) from Little Scrapbook Shop - $5 per entry
* Alter a BRA – just for fun. $1 entry fee – images uploaded onto Little Scrapbook Shop gallery

* CARD KIT & CLASS – prepared by Michelle Jamieson with supplies donated by Acacia Paper Craft & Kaiser Craft. $3 per kit.
* CARDS for Sale – handmade cards and tags.
* Guess How Many Competition – how many brads and eyelets are in the jar? $1 per entry (closest to the correct number wins the jar and its contents)
* Cold drinks available – Coke, Diet Coke & Water - $1 each
* Check out the Tupperware display by Julie Ferguson – 15% of all purchases or orders on the night go to the fund raising tally. Thanks to Julie for the donation of $150 worth of prizes too!

Those coming along ---- don't forget your craft mat AND there will be NO scrap supplies for sale on the night at the crop - so bring your scrap supplies with you! Adhesives, cutters etc not supplied with the class.
Who wants to guess how much we'll raise??? Come on! I originally said $200 but I'm hoping we'll make $500 now with such an awesome response from everyone! What do you think???
