New thread for you.

Thanks Tree :)
Will try to actually USE this months kit LOL.some fab ideas

[Carole]

Ok, I'm loving this month's book and I've actually done a layout inspired by one of the many gorgeous layouts in the book. I'm really pleased with how it turned out :)

It's here (http://www.ukscrappers.co.uk/photopost/showphoto.php?photo=70441&cat=2) if anyone wants to take a peek :D

I am taking my copy of it away on a scrapping trip to Florida next week - along with lots of juicy large photos

[Fiona]

...and the next kit is due to go out soon. I hope everyone's enjoying Big Shot!!

[Carole]

I'm loving it Fiona :)

I'm planning several layouts inspired by the book. I love large photos and there are some smashing ideas in there.

So... what's the next one then?? :P

[Carole]

I've just had a wee look to see if there's anything going on over at the NYOBC website, and it's all shiny and new. Looks like it maybe only went live today as there are only 7 members on the boards, and no posts. It looks like there's still a lot to be set up on it, but hopefully they'll keep it up to date this time.

There are a couple of books on there that I don't recall seeing before, perhaps one of them is our next one :ph34r:

And has anyone else done anything from the Bigshot book? I finished my homework today. It definitely meets the criteria; it has a HUGE photo and the layout says something about me. Haven't got around to scanning it yet though.

Half way though it Carole ..it in my dinning room table waiting for me to finish it off.
got this months when i got home from work yesterday too!!..very nice :)

[Carole]

Well c'mon then. Finish it so we can see it :lol:

Can't wait to see the new book on Friday.

Hey Carol, I didn't realise there was a NYOBC website? Can you send me the link, please? You going to Fiona's this Friday? I'll be there for the first time and I'm all booked in to crop on Saturday too so I'm all set for scrapbooking this weekend.

[Carole]

Yes, I'll be there tomorrow. Looking forward to it, as always :D

[scrapjax]

How do I find out more info on this intriguing kit??? Sounds ideal - I love kits and I love books!!!!

[Eeyore]

Hi all
Just a quick question to the 'local' NYOBC ers.
Does anybody know where mine and Froggies Cj's are please?
Thanks Eeyore

[soojay]

got my kit yesterday ..thanks

[Fiona]

I think everyone will have had their kit now, it was well received last night at the Friday Night Crop. However, as members now know, we have decided to stop doing NYOBC, partly because kit quality and book content has been quite variable....most were great, but also packaging issues with the kits (just don't mention that glue!!!) We have been running this at practically no profit margin, and as people have handed notice we have decided to take a break.

Friday Night Crops at PaperArts are full every month, we will certainly be carrying on with those. Book online or in the shop!!

Thank you everyone for your enthusiam, support and we hope you have enjoyed NYOBC for the past 14 months. We will carry on getting the books in, but say three times a year to make shipping more economical!!

This doesn't mean to say that PaperArts won't come up with another innovative monthly/club/kit offering (after all we pioneered the cardstock kits three years ago!) Got my thinking cap on.......all suggestions greatfully received (preferably practical!!)

[soojay]

Thanks again Fi ..I shall watch eagerly :)
