Our first kit, FIRST KISS class in Hawaii

I'm back in Hawaii now from CHA and visiting the MOUSE with my good friend and niece, Rollyn (from the Philippines). Rollyn should be at home now resting. We had such a blast picking all new products from CHA to use for our monthly kits until approx. July of this month. After which, we will be working on our new kits from July to January picking products from the Summer CHA.

We used two new lines, Love Notes from Making Memories and Bittersweet from Basic Grey to create our first Scrapbooks Hawaii's February Kit, FIRST KISS.

For folks in Hawaii, I am having a class on Saturday, February 14, 2009 at the Kalihi-Palama library using the FIRST KISS. We will create 5 projects: 2-12x12 layouts, a 24-page 6x6 album, and 2 cards. A black post-bound album will also be included with the kit to complete your class kit. Class will be from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Class fee is $50.00. A portion of the class fee will be donated to the Friends of the Kalihi-Palama library.

Sorry that I could only offer this class on Valentine’s Day, but that’s the only Saturday in February the library is available. Oh, GIFT IDEAS: 6x6 album project and cards are great gift ideas to give your date on Valentine’s Day or any special event. wink-wink :D

To reseve your class spot, please email me at scrapbooks@hawaii.rr.com. I hope to see you there! And oh, we will also be having some giveaways that day...don't miss out!

Making Memories SLICE & Embellishment Center Winner!

Yep, I won a Making Memories SLICE and Embellishment Center at the Making Memories booth during the recent CHA 2009 at Anaheim Convention Center! I didn't realize someone was taping it and was in You Tube until I visited the Making Memories blog. Here's it is...I'm towards the end of this video:

Uh huh, that was a dance I did! :D Wouldn't you if you won? :D

Here's the picture! Yeah, big smiles and all. :D

Happy New Year and FIRST KISS!!!

Happy New Year! It’s been a while since I last blogged. I got busy with the store closing, holidays, just took some "me" time for a while there, and got myself busy with my SURPRISE and announcement for all of you! :)

Curious about what’s new at Scrapbooks Hawaii? Well, I’ve got an announcement to make!!! Starting February, we are launching a NEW Scrapbooks Hawaii KIT CLUB!!! Our first kit, "FIRST KISS". I'm happy to "marry" up two of my favorite manufacturers, Basic Grey and Making Memories to come up with our very first FEBRUARY KIT! Below are pictures of the whole kit:

This kit is LOADED! It includes: 4 Making Memories Love Notes (MMLN) Patterned Papers (Love Birds Scallop, Battenburg, Lace and Words), 5 Basic Grey Bittersweet Patterned Papers (Cherry Cordial, Mousse, Almond Toffee, Hand-Dipped and Ganache), 5 Bazzill Basics Cardstocks (Kraft, Walnut, Iced Coffee, Watermelon and Cajun), 7 assorted MMLN Pins, 42 assorted MMLN brads, MMLN Trim Card (6 ribbons, 1 yd ea), MMLN Tiny Alphas, 6 assorted MMLN Journaling Notes, 18 assorted BG Bittersweet buttons, 6 assorted flowers, 6 chipboard diecut hearts, and Autum Leaves Manhattan Icon stamps (8 stamps in set).

Note to Philippine Scrappers: I can fit up to 3 or maybe even 4 kits in the USPS Flat Priority box in case you want to split the shipping with friends. OR, Yoyin can take them home with her from CHA and she can mail them out to you from the Philippines. She'll probably be able to mail them out the second week of Feb.
