NJOYFULL CRAFTS..
While travelling throughout Australia, I realised that I was unable to buy online all the unique ribbons, lace and embellishments I was finding in local stores. 
With plenty of experience running previous businesses, I established Njoyfull Crafts in July 2011, which can be found at www.njoyfullcrafts.com.au. 
Njoyfull Crafts specialises in ribbons, braid, lace, embellishments, flowers, leaves, sequins, pearls and burlap. Since July 2012, the store also stocks a large range of 12 x 12 cardstock and letters from American Crafts and Bazzill Basics Paper. 
Narelle is also aiming to sell her own creations. Currently she stocks her own hand-knitted scarves, which will increase closer to winter.
Free postage on any orders over $99.
There is a monthly challenge, visit http://njoyfullcraftschallenge.blogspot.com.au/ for the latest task. 
** Starting from 17th March until approx Mid July, Product Orders will be unable to be distributed due to being overseas.
Customers are welcome to register.
When registered, then I will be able to send a Newsletter out advising of my return.

Njoyfull Crafts are offering a $15.00 Product Pack that will be posted out by STB whilst they are away.


CHARMS CREATIONS...
 A bit about Charms Creations....

I started creating my Lovely Lollipops just for my own scrapbooking pages in about February/March of this year. I saw that Scrapbooking Top 50 had a Craft Market that gives the opportunity to sell your own handmade embellishments, so thought I would make a few packets up and see how it goes! It went really well, so I thought I would make a few more packs up and try my hand selling them on my own personal blog too - my first sale was in April. That went really well too! I've had a sale a month, plus have been a regular at the Craft Market at SBT50 too. I've also set up a Facebook Shop where I have them available as well. I have LOTS of giveaways so to keep updated on those & upcoming sales - make sure you LIKE my Charms Creations Facebook Page & check out my blog Charms Creations!

Each and every embellishment that I have created has been handcut {making them ALL totally unique} and can include a mixture of felt, fabric, lace, hessian, doiley & any other interesting piece of material I can find. They are finished off with a button and cross-stitches that are also as unique to the embellishment! I have started making different styles and sizes of Lovely Lollipops, Luscious Lollipops & Page Runners. Something NEW are my Suns and Clouds too! I have also dabbled in a bit of clay stamping too. So, if you are looking for something totally unique and one of a kind please pop on over and check them out!

I am soooo excited about sponsoring this month - and look forward to seeing what you all create! 

Have fun & Good Luck on winning the fab prizes up for grabs - including mine of course... heheh!

Charms Creations are offering a $15.00 Voucher.



We also have an ALL NEW DESIGN TEAM  starting this month, please make them feel welcome :-)

WENDY SMITH...
 
Hi!
My name is Wendy Smith and I am really looking forward to being a part of the Scrap The Boys Design Team.

 

I live in Tasmania with my 2 boys, Charles and Angus, as well as my ever growing menagerie of animals, Jazz, Max and Gyspy.

I have been scrapbooking for about 9 years now, and it all started with my need to create a memory for my children. I wanted to scrap a single page for each month in their first year of life…and that was all I had planned. Who would have thought it would have ballooned into such an obsession?? I have had some terrific opportunities in the scrapbooking world including teaching, and designing for sites and magazines.

 

I am currently on the Design Team for Anna’s Craft Cupboard and the all new 123 Challenge Blog.

 

I love the creative outlet Scrapbooking provides for me, and of course I love all the products, but most of all I love seeing the way scrapbooking makes me view the world just a little bit differently and makes me see my children in a different light.

 



MONICA BRADY...

I have two boys and love scrapping funny and whimsical layouts about their escapades. 
I would say my style is simple. I love using lots of paper layers, playing with mists, paints,mediums and templates.I  love making my own embellisments or buying them from the super talented crafters who sell them online.
I love trying out new trendss well as revisiting older ones. 
I love to use brIght papers and dabble in vintage style layouts once in a while.

MAGALI aka LADYBIRD...

I am a scrapbooker since 2007 and I was published in several French-speaking magazines (Esprit Scrapbooking, Scrapbook Extra, Passion Scrapbooking). I was even part of the creative team of Scrapbook Extra for 4 years.
I am more known under the pseudo Ladybird.
I am currently in the creative team of :
- Scrapbook Laurentides (a scrapbooking shop in Quebec)
- Scraptus (an inspirational blog, taht you can find here : http://scraptus.blogspot.ca/
- Carnet de couleurs (a color combo blog : http://carnetdecouleurs.canalblog.com/
