Congratulations Too...

Michelle Jamieson...

To fill in-a couple of weeks ago ScrapChat turned one and in doing so held an online workshop with Rhonna Farrer. (which I have heard was a blast)

Point Shoot Play donated a "Complete Set" DVD, the lucky winner was Michelle Jamieson.
The DVD is on its way Michelle-enjoy.

Point Shoot Play has donated a few more prizes for ScrapChat-so check it out, for your chance to win and to meet some new friends.

What do you do with your digital photos? Do you upload them onto photo sharing sites? Do you print out copies to give your friends? Do you place them in photo albums?

We'd like to encourage you to make your own scrapbook page digitally and enter it into this Digital Scrapbooking Contest for a chance to win a Bamboo Fun tablet!

We are well on our way to the weekend... Last minute finishing touches are being put together....

Just a quick note, (actually Rachel pointed this out-thanks Rach) in the Expo guide, it states you need a "Expo Tool Kit", you don't all you need for Basics is a pen, Digi, a pen and your photos on a CD and for Photography a pen and if you like your camera..

We had a great weekend teaching, we were all over Brisbane and beyond from Mermaid Beach to Toowoomba and in between. Thanks to all that joined us...
