Store update......

well we have moved.......


BUT it will be a few more days yet before we are open again!! Those trivial things such as floor, walls, painting, roof and signs need to be done first to the new place before we can start setting it all up for you all ...

Speaking for myself (but I know Kat (& hubby) and Di) are probably feeling a bit stiff and buggered tonight. Scrap shops are not easy to move!

As of today everything has been moved from the old shop and is patiently waiting for it's new spot in the new shop. Along with all the new and oh so exciting stock that is being delivered - Xmas has come early for us :) :) :)

If there is anything at all you have seen whilst surfing the net or browsing around and you would like to get - just let us know - add a post to the end of this email and we will endeavour to get it for you.

In the meantime - HAPPY SCRAPPING EVERYONE :) :) :)

I am sure that you have heard that we are on the move - well the time has come. We will be closing shop at our current location after the Crop Night Friday 24 October and will re-open at our new premises Unit 3 /18 Enterprise Cres, Malaga. Literally just down the road if you are standing at the front door to the shop - turn left go to the end, turn right and we are there on the left side of the road. If everything goes to plan we will open on Thursday 6th November at 9.30am.

Over the next week - you will see us in store packing etc. Please note the shop will not be open for purchases - not even just little quick ones...sorry. Thanks to those people who have volunteered to assist us - we appreciate it and we will contact you if needed.

Outwit, Outcreate, Outscrap Challenges 6 & 7

Due to our upcoming move we have released Challenges 6 & 7 - both of these will be due in store by 5.00pm Thursday 6th November.
