Thanks Lorraine! Guess I will just HAVE to be patient! :D

[Hils]

Sooo glad there's a new thread - been getting error messages on the old one for ages now, which makes it really time-consuming checking it out - click, message, click to clear, read post, click, error message, etc, etc, etc :rolleyes:
Is the May sneaky peeky up yet? :) The description sounds fab but you can't beat a good visual ;) :)
Looking forward to the April kit - haven't used up all of the last one yet - the papers are soooo gorgeous that I thought I should ration them and not use any more for a few weeks! :lol:

[soojay]

they all look fab ..can't choose between them !! No wonder you had one of each Lorraine!

[Marja]

Then again compared to you I'm an angel. :lol:

[Marja]

I can't believe I miss the CC kits, then go to my mum'sfor a few days and miss the Cherry Arte kits that I really needed:( I better get a stonking great Easter Egg tomorrow to make me feel better...

[linguist]

Can someone please remind me what date the monthly kit will go out this month? I think it was going to be later than usual.

Thank you!

[katie squirrel]

ooh... I cant remember Anna... I think Lorraine said after Easter wasnt it to avoid the hassle of the post... perhaps it will be sent out next Wednesday??

[Charly]

i *think* Lorraine said 20th/21st something like that i know it will be while i am in wales so i am pretty sure it is one of those days hth :)

[Jennie]

I think it's the 20th April.

[lorraineA]

Kits are being posted Thursday 20th April:)

Louise, don't panic more Cherry Artes landed Thursday and I will put them back on tomorrow sometime!

[Looby Lou]

You will love it Nikki... I have been really pleased with both of mine :)

[erisindevon]

My first kit too, and I'm very excited! I can't believe I've also ordered some cherry arte and the May kit and stamps when I haven't yet had the April kit! I think it was panic buying - I was worried that I'd love april sooooo much but May would have already sold out lol! I'm also getting the stamps because heaven forbid I should miss out on anything....

Eris

[katie squirrel]

Am looking forward to the April one as it the first of the new stamps.... also had to order one of the cherry arte kits.. and its gorgeous.. lovely papers and card too..

[bevvie]

I was so exited ....... I got my kit this morning aswell ... and it was a great suprise .....

They are sooooo my colours ...... mind you I can't see me getting to use much of it B4 the cyber crop ........ I have too many other things I need to do for that :lol:!!!!!

[4kidsat147]

ooo my box postie comes about 12.30 I'm going to be stalking him......lets hope he's not chatting long if he is bringing my kit.

May make me tidy up quicker today too, then I won't feel guilty playing.

[Sparky]

Mine's here too, and it's yum scrumptious. Only thing is, there aren't any design sheets in it? Are you forcing me to use my own imagination? :lol:

[Charly]

Mine has arrvied as well it was a great surprise! :)

and the kit is lovely :wub: i can't wait to use it!!

[ayyjay]

Got mine this morning too - it's the first one since subscribing after seeing other kits they had done just had to have!! LOL

Still not got my CC kit so gonna play with this one instead! Fab service!! But - Lorraine - does the post office open early for you!! LOL Ever thought of using Smart stamp - we do and I think (just think) you can do a mail merge with Word too!! (the geek coming out in me sorry!!)

[linguist]

I've got my kit too! Was very surprised, wasn't expecting it for another day or two.

Just one question though - what can I use to set the eyelets with? I'm thinking my MM eyelet setter (with hammer) isn't going to be big enough.

Well that shows how well I've read the booklet then doesn't it LOL. Thanks Louise, will have a look in just a few minutes!

[4kidsat147]

WHOOOOOo - Mine came with the normal postie.......poor love she had her arms full today.

I'm loving it, my house isn't so forgiving though it's a tip. I really must get organised and get on with work as I was hoping to nip to town today. I can't wait to start creating this evening. :)

[Marja]

Am sure there are other ways of doing it so it would be great if people shared other methods. I just used what tools I had readily available in my normal tool box that I thought most people would also have :)

[Charly]

I have just been having a play with the clear stamps and they are fab!! i love them :wub: i have been finding stamping very hard recently haven't been able to get clear crisp images but it was so easy with these stamps i have just been and brought the may ones i love them so much!!

[nikkimitch]

cant wait for a chance to play

[swanlady2000]

ooooooh,

Went out before the postie this morning and just got in. Lovely parcel waiting for me on the kitchen top.

Just want to say Lorraine that its absolutely gorgeous, I love the embellies and the stamps!

[fionaken]

Stalking my postie now - hope he comes soon.

[SuzieR]

Mine arrived! Got a bit of a surprise as was expecting the May kit (forgot it was only April! :wacko: ) But this one is just fabby! Perfect for little boy LOs, which I always find harder to do! thanks Lorraine! (also, got my blossom stamps :wub: :wub: )

[SuzyB]

Cant remember where I asked mine to be sent so not sure if its arrived or not LOL

[Nannie]

Just had mine hand delivered and waiting to play!

[lorraineA]

Hi all!

Haven't been around much today - busy moving more bits around and keeping my mind occupied whilst Harry has his first day at school!

Glad those of you that received your kits love them - fingers crossed for those still to come for an early morning postie - anyone that has a design booklet missing email me and I will get one out to you asap!

Have fun playing and remember to send in your creations with a chance to appear in the mag next month.

The winner of the Prima Stax will be announced later tonight.

Any body still waiting for sub gifts can rest assured they will be with you very, very soon!

May Add Ons and stamps are on the site to purchase from today.

Happy Scrapping,

L x

[katie squirrel]

My postie has been - and I have got my kit! Thanks Lorraine!! Think it is absolutely fab!! Loads of goodies and wonderful colours...... want to have a play with it, but think will settle for a loving look and stroke, and put safely away until after the cc!

[kellyg]

Hi spent the afternoon after work today doing this layout! Photo didn't take too well but you get the idea!

http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d189/scrapping4fun/ScrapagogoAprilKitLayout.jpg

[papermad]

Got my kit today - yeh! and love it yeh! Just one question in the picture it has the stamps, but aren't they an add-on? I'd love to think the stamps should've been included and mine is missing :lol: but guess not.

[Looby Lou]

Nice try Papemad:lol: the stamps do look fab, but I am under no circumstances whatsoever allowed to buy anymore stash... Promised DH yesterday that I will save money from now on..... and I swore on ds's name so that's it... pennies stay in pocket:rolleyes:

[Bluemoonjules]

I had better cut back, too....

.......but how gorgeous is this kit - not sure about those oversized eyelets - they are totally yummy, but I can see me damaging myself getting them fixed on!!! :wacko:

I'm hoping I can get some of this used in the cybercrop....better get some pics printed off, eh?

[peggiey]

Mone was waiting when I came in from work. Lovely papers & embellishments. Can't play tonight as off to Memory Avenue for a class. Will have to wait till tomorrow

[SuzyB]

Got mine!! Was tucked behind my bin when I got home from work :D

[lorraineA]

Got my kit today - yeh! and love it yeh! Just one question in the picture it has the stamps, but aren't they an add-on? I'd love to think the stamps should've been included and mine is missing :lol: but guess not.

Yep, the stamps are an 'Add On' - it states this on the picture on the home page and that's why they aren't on the Kit List - good try though:lol:

L x

[4kidsat147]

Well I'm all go on a layout, I've even managed to get the big eyelets onto the page, but can I find the pliers to set them? Can I eck!

[4kidsat147]

Scrap that done it.........the cone shaped eyelet setter gets it moving and a hammer finishes it all off.

Brads keep bouncing off the desk though......can you tell I'm used to the instant setter?

[lorraineA]

Well I'm all go on a layout, I've even managed to get the big eyelets onto the page, but can I find the pliers to set them? Can I eck!

The large eyelets thing is a bit of a pain in the ---, when I ordered these at CHA the lady on KF said it would be no problem to set with other tools. Marja had a little bit of trouble at first so I emailed KF who said 'didn't I read the package?' - maybe I should have but when being told by one of their people it would be Ok I though I couldn't go wrong :(

Still it will build your muscles!!!

It's not a problem I set them with just a normal hammer and eyelets setter and a craft knife

First I put the largest hole where I wanted the eyelets to go, nicked 4 'sides' with the craft knife and pushed it through...the using the cone setter got the eyelet to start moving and finished it off with a few wacks of the hammer.

Not a problem really and they are loverrrrrrly :wub:

[Lucy C]

Lorraine..what can I say...absolutely scrumtastic!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It looked good enough on the sneaky peaky but IRL it is just delish! :) Thought I had ordered stamps (know I have for next month ) but think I am getting confused in my old age! :D

[enola05]

What can I say. You (Scrapagogo) are SOOO bad for my diet. Just bought acrylic blocks for stramps (although I'm fairly sure I read somewhere that you could use the tin they came in to mount the stamps if you're stuck) and a Cherry Arte kit fell into my basket!!!

Add to that the May add ons that I bought earlier today. If I ever had any will power it's certainly on holiday today :lol:

[4kidsat147]

Well I've managed to complete a layout (http://www.ukscrappers.co.uk/photopost/showphoto.php?photo=70565&cat=2). (The washing hasn't forgiven me yet, but hey it'll get over it. :lol:)

I even managed to stick to everything in the kit and not have to root through all my stash. - Thanks Lorraine. :wub:

[Trixiebell]

just had a look at your LO, it is fab :)

[4kidsat147]

Well I enjoyed doing the first so much I did another (http://www.ukscrappers.co.uk/photopost/showphoto.php?photo=70637). :)

I couldn't upload it til this morning though as my internet went down about 1am. :lol:

Thanks again Lorraine for a fabby kit :wub: .....I've popped the rest away now for another day, I don't want to get sick of the sight of it do I? :unsure:

[Trixiebell]

cor! you have been a busy bee another lovely LO really like the big C :)

[4kidsat147]

Aww thanks :wub:

I never realised how much I enjoyed doing layouts from kits till I started last night.....it takes out all the agro of picking what goes with what.

[Bluemoonjules]

Can't wait to see what you do with yours Jules... as many of your LOs end up in my faves:wub:

Oh, bless you! :wub: I will try my best!

[erisindevon]

Postie arrived with my April kit and cherry artes this morning. Typically, he was early and caught dh on his way out the door - I got some raised eyebrows about Another 2 pizza boxes..... But since I'm ill today and home with two sick kids, he didn't tell me off!

Anyway - the kits look fab and I'm looking forward to getting stuck in ;)

My first kit arrived yesterday and must say its aboslutely brilliant, I don,t know why I was surprised to get so much:D anyway DD just arranged to go to friends today so when I've been shopping I'll make a start on using it.

Can't wait for next months now

[SuzyB]

[ayyjay]

Did my first Kit layout - it's in the gallery here (http://www.ukscrappers.co.uk/photopost/showphoto.php?photo=70670&limit=recent) found everything really easy to put together and already have ideas for a layout of Emy!! Did find the giant eyelets a puzzler but with a pair of wire benders they worked a treat and look fab.

[Ria979902]

Jane great job you made of your kit too:)

[Trixiebell]

Maria and Jane absoultley love your LOs :)

[ayyjay]

I just had a peek at Maria's and it's totally fab!!

I'm quite new to Scrapping but have learnt so much in the last couple of months - no stopping me now.

I also think that these kits help you try new things! Just what I wanted out of them!!

[Looby Lou]

Your Los are fab ladies:) I have left comments for them as have many others:lol:

[swanlady2000]

Could someone help me out?

Does anyone have a list of the cardstock that was used in the March kit (The sassafras lass one) ? I need to order another couple of pieces and don't know what the names are.

The Bazzill invoice that lists the colours is at the accountants - I will try and get the swatch book out later and see if I can remember. I know that one of the greens was Parakeet and one of the browns was Coca.

***APRIL DRAW WINNER***

Just to let you all know that the kind milkman picked a number from the total amount of subscirbers, I then matched it from the database and have emailed the winner. As soon as they have replied I will anounce on the thread.

Subscribers gifts should be here by the end of the week (except Prima gifts which are delayed) so hopefully I will be able to get them to everyone by the start of May.

Draw for May will be available to view on the home page later today.

Don't forget to keep those gorgeous LO's and projects coming in for a chance to 'Show and Tell' in next months booklet.

Have a good day,

L x

[liberty]

Not me then. :lol:

Matthew's music teacher just rung me whilst I was colouring my hair. Not sure what shade it will come out as - she was on the phone for a long time!!

Sue

[Jennie]

LOL Sue!

[Helliebabes]

Hi all...not been about much so i'm just catching up on the natterings!
Been busy playing with the April Kit...so far i've got 3 LO's out of it.Here's (http://www.ukscrappers.co.uk/photopost/showphoto.php?photo=74320&cat=500) one LO.I'm really chuffed with one!!! :D

xx

[Jennie]

That's a fab LO Helliebabes. I love those stitched circles/flowers.

[papermad]

Helen, that's lovely.

[nikkimitch]

love the stiching on your lo helliebabes
i managed one lo during the cc using my first kit
http://www.ukscrappers.co.uk/photopost/showphoto.php?photo=72128&cat=500&ppuser=10878
love the kit and can see i am going to get loads from it:D

[4kidsat147]

Just had a look at them both they're great....I managed to batter my kit on the cyber crop with this layout (http://www.ukscrappers.co.uk/photopost/showphoto.php?photo=72365&cat=500&ppuser=8652).

I've not got much of it left now. LOL

[fionaken]

Used my April kit to make the mini book at the CC.

[SuzieR]

Lorraine, I had the funniest dream last night!!!!

I dreamt that I won the ribbons that you were offering as the prize thingy this months (I didn't IRL!!). they arrived in the hugest box, and I was desperately trying to convince DH that I WON them, I did NOT buy them!!! For some reason he just wouldn't believe me! it was really funny! :lol:

Just thought I'd share that with you :)

[Jennie]

LOL Suzie!

Rebecca, I love your LO, and I like the different quote you used. It really shows off the kit well that LO doesn't it?

[SuzieR]

Great LOs everyone! it's such a fab kit! Rebecca, I really love how you've done the title - with the circles from the pp! Might borrow that idea if I may!

[4kidsat147]

Borrow the idea all you want hun, it's the only cybercrop class I really followed to a T, but the papers work soo well with it. I didn't have any ovals and my cutting is awful so circles it ended up being.

Finding the quote was the hardest part. LOL

[bevvie]

I used various papers from last months kit in the crop ..... loved them ... but now I can play with this months aswell!!

And even better ... the prize I won for a LO in the cybercrop is sponsored by scrapagogo .... so I just know its going to be something wonderful!! :)

Lorraine are you getting any more Cherry Artes Retro or Burnish papers in ??? I am finding it tricky to locate some more at the mo ..... if not I will try and source them at Bonanza ..... Just loved them and used quite a bit of them during the CC :D

[Bluemoonjules]

Fess up - who won the subs draw?? :lol:

Those LOs are lush!!!

[liberty]

So I'm guessing it wasn't you either Jules?

Sue

[Bluemoonjules]

[papermad]

Yeh it was me!!!! Was dying to post, but wasn't sure if Lorraine wanted me to until she'd announced it. Couldn't really believe it was me - sent Lorraine quite a few emails this morning gobsmacked, speechless and more. I never win anything. So pleased especially as I am a bit of a ribbon addict.:wub: Well stash addict of any sort! So, so, so, SO pleased. I've had a smile on my face all day. :) Still can't really believe it, but seeing it posted here must mean it's true!

[bevvie]

They are so gorgeous aren't they Jules and I must top up my collection .... rather a lot went over the weekend .... I can't think why lol!!!

[katie squirrel]

Well done Debbie..... lucky girl! Now to find a space to store those gorgeous ribbons!!!

Yay! I've uploaded my first ever kit LO here (http://www.ukscrappers.co.uk/photopost/showphoto.php?photo=74351&cat=2). I've used less of the pp than most of you - the photo seemed to call for a more subtle LO - or maybe I'm just scared of patterns lol!

Eris

[4kidsat147]

That's a great layout and the photo was made for it. I don't use much patterened paper either (apart from the Cybercrop one) It's just not me.

[Helliebabes]

Eris i loved your LO...very bold in colours!! Your DD looks so chuffed with herself...great photo.:D
I've been hellishly busy making presents and card for upcoming birthdays!! I used some of the march kit for my DH:wub: anniversary present......HERE (http://www.ukscrappers.co.uk/photopost/showphoto.php?photo=74480&cat=4331) .

You have been busy! Won't be long until the next kit Helen, its all packed up and ready to go just the booklets and Add Ons to go in the boxes - May 15th will come round soooo quick as I have a short holiday at Centre Parcs followed by Bonanza (actually the other way round!) first.
L x

[Helliebabes]

Hope you have a good holiday at centre Parcs Lorraine......DH and i are toying with going to the one in the lake Disctrict as it's near to my family and where i grew up.

xx

[Looby Lou]

Which Center Parcs are you going too Lorraine? I used to work at the Sherwood Forest one, and my parents still live in the village a couple of minutes away:)

[papermad]

I've stayed at the Nottingham one and the Lake District one. Both are great, but I have a little bit of a preference for the Nottingham one as I feel it is a bit bigger with a bit more choice of activities. If you get the time to have some "me time" the spa is sooooo nice!

Debby.

Jane check your anti spam folder? I got a reminder invoice, only to find the original had gone straight into my spam folder. I'm sure Lorraine has issued them all, but maybe she hasn't.

Eleveden Forset in Thetford, it only takes us 3/4 hr to get there which is fab as Harry doesn't 'do' travelling:)

Really looking forward to it as Harry is in the kids club each morning and we can do other things with the girls - I am going to treat Zoe to a day in the spa as this is just before fer GCSE's and she is feeling exhausted and stressed at the mo:(

AND...
I have just been dribbling over whats in store for the kits in June and July as well as choosing August and September!!!

Oh your such a tease! :P i don't know how you keep uo with dates when you have to think so far in advanced!!

Cherry, next time we go pass, I will wave :lol: .

Here is a LO (http://www.ukscrappers.co.uk/photopost/showphoto.php?photo=74710&cat=500) from our visit last year using March paper.

Ifa

[Trixiebell]

well i have just plucked up the courage to use this months kit still cant bring myself to cut into the pp yet! :lol: its here (http://www.ukscrappers.co.uk/photopost/showphoto.php?photo=74723&cat=2) if you fancy a little look! i have also used some of karen fosters really big eyelets for a cj i am making, they are lovely :)

[VAC]

How have people used the KF eyelet without her tool? I really want to use them but I dont know how to set them!!!
Not used any of the three kits I have bought but I will do!!! I am getting some page packs together so that should be easy with kits!

[Trixiebell]

VAC in your scrapagogo booklet there are instructions on how to use the eyelets without buying the tool :)

[ayyjay]

Must admit I used a set of wire bending pliers! Worked a treat!

[suffolkscrapper]

lorraine - i dont think i got a scrap mat - mag handout thingy in this months kit - been having a rummage through everything this evening and cant remember seeing one when it arrived - you dont have any spares do you?

[Jennie]

To set mine, I used my largest eyelet setter, to start off the process, and then banged the back with a hammer to totally flatten it, and then "stuck" it on the paper, I didn't attempt to set it through cardstock.

[lorraineA]

Ooooh that looks seriously scrummy! Roll on June! :lol:

[peggiey]

Just seen the sneaky Peek for June - papers are great and having only males in the family not one that I would normally buy. Looking forward to getting this.

[papermad]

Can I check something. I've been meaning to put a signature on for ages. Tried and lets see!

[lorraineA]

June's Kit has two ranges from Chloe's Closet - 'Wonderland' and 'Dig -It' as I just couldn't decide:lol:

The stamps for June and July (one design for both months due to plant summer closure in USA) are up and I am soooooooo excited that I can bring you the exclusive ScrapaGoGo font!

Also £1 from every kit sold is going to Mcmillan Nurses to support one of our kit subscribers who is having her head shaved in support of her sister.

[4kidsat147]

So are we best ordering the font now L??

Or wait for June add ons?
