And now for some Family Fun...

That's right!  It's that time of the year again, and the ever popular Uncle Jumbo's is back!  We have the tickets on sale in the shop, so pop in and get yours today!


News, news, news...

Our apologies for being "off-air" so to speak for the last two weeks - we simply can not keep up with all the fantastic new products that are being released at the moment!  But we are back now, so let's get straight into what's new in the shop...

NOVEMBER SPECIAL
From now until the end of November ONLY (just in time to spoil yourself and stock up for the looonng December holidays!), we have a "R30 off" special on all "older" kits designed by the fabulous Elizna Parsons.  These will make great Christmas gifts for all your scrapping friends, and are wonderful to take with you wherever you may find yourself these holidays.  As Elizna's kits contains everything you need to complete the layout, the only other things you need to pack are your tools and photos! Furthermore, we are expecting Elizna's new kits for November/December in store any day now, so be sure to pop in and see what's on offer.

GORGEOUS NEW TOTES
The Everything Mary totes are finally back in stock from The Wholesaler, and as an added bonus, they are now also available in a Beautiful Blue!


If you missed these fantastic, GREAT value-for-money totes first-time around, be sure to come and get yours quick before they sell out again!

NEW PAPER RANGES
We have the latest offerings from Simple Stories in stock, as well as three beautiful new ranges from Glitz Designs.  We are expecting the new ranges from Kaisercraft to arrive next week, as well as stunning new ranges from Bo Bunny, so watch this space!

NEW AC CARDSTOCK
We have also received all the new colours of AC Cardstock recently released, as well as the new AC Cardstock Paper Pads. These Paper Pads contain a whopping 100 sheets of cardstock in a variety of colours, for the BARGAIN price of R285! That means you only pay R2,85 per sheet!  These are selling faster than what we can unpack them, so hurry on over and grab yours before it all sells out...

That's it from us for now... we hope you have a fantastic day and a wonderful filled-with-scrapping weekend!
