KIU MARCH CHALLENGE...

WOW, we have had such an unbelievable response to our first challenge THANK YOU all so much for making this site feel so welcome and something that we can all enjoy!!!

First up we want to welcome our two new sponsors who have so kindly joined our site to offer you all some great prizes each month...

Firstly we welcome Suzanne from Handmade By Suzanne...

Handmade By Suzanne specialises in offering high quality products at affordable prices. Our online store stocks a wide range of of your favourite brands and new stock is arriving weekly. We also offer kits of the latest releases complete with a sketch our Design Team have created at great savings.

Customer service is a passion – orders are shipped same day (provided payment has been received) and special order enquiries are welcome.

We look forward to your visiting.


Next we want to welcome Sar from Scrapbook Savvy...
My name is Sarah Ward, but I'm known in the scrapping world as Sar. I've owned Scrapbook Savvy for nearly a year now. I have been a scrapbooker for around six years and when the opportunity arose for me to buy the store, I jumped into it headfirst and have given it my all from day one. Running my own business means that I can be at home with my babies while still being a part the working world. I have turned what was solely an online store into an at home store as well, with my entire downstairs area now being a shop with room to seat 10 people for a crop. I am very lucky to have a fantastic group of local girls who attend my crop days and nights, and who also are free to just pop in for a coffee and a shop whenever they feel like it!

I am very much still an online business though, and love being a part of such an amazing online community. Our forum and gallery is such a friendly place, and anyone is welcome to come and hang out with us...be it for a chat, some inspiration or just to stalk us for ideas! We have challenges each month including our Sketch Challenge which is the big monthly prize of $25 to spend in store, as well as our 'Colour Combo Challenge', 'All About Me Challenge' and '54321 Challenge'.

On top of this we run a 'Random Kit Challenge' which is a challenge solely for our kit customers. Each month our kit designer Sara Noendeng designs our kits, which are called He's Savvy, She's Savvy and We're Savvy. As the names suggest, these are boy themed, girl themed and neutral themed kits. Anyone who purchases a kit can enter our kit challenge, and the winner receives a FREE We're Savvy kit for the following month plus they are then the 'Savvy Guest Designer' for that month which gives them a generous DT discount as well as the opportunity to be a part of the amazing Savvy Design Team.

One very special part of Scrapbook Savvy that I have to mention, is our Lifetime Rewards Scheme. At Savvy, we keep track of how much you spend instore (over no set time period) and when you reach certain spend levels (eg. $250, $500, etc) you are awarded a level of discount (starting at 5% with the highest being 15%). This discount stays with you FOREVER, and means that you receive this discount on ALL orders, even during sale times. We like to thank our loyal customers whenever we can, and what better way than to give them a discount on every single order they place!?

Don't forget, on registering as a new customer at Scrapbook Savvy you will receive 20% off your first order (you will receive a discount coupon in your welcome email).

So come visit us at Scrapbook Savvy....you never know, you may just want to hang around and become a part of something amazing!
