But the first Friday of the Month is finally here.

I could tell by all the activity last month that you all loved Mr Squiggle - unfortunately it is time to say goodbye but something tells me he may become a regular feature around here. This month our DT will be playing with Authentique and will have a few other special show and tells for you along the way

There is so much to tell I dont know where to start - Danny and I have just celebrated 4 years as Scraptherapy Mum and Dad, I cant believe how much has changed in that time - when I think back to those few boxes of stock and not much else and look at what we have here now - well it has been a wild ride

My background is in accounts, so being the beginning of a new Financial Year means HAPPY NEW YEAR, and also means time to make some changes.
The biggest of which is some changes to our challenges - this is a bit tricky so read carefully please - all our challenges are going to stay at this stage - however we sponser a LOT of blogs etc out there of the www and we have made the quality decision that Scraptherapy Challenges will no longer attract a prize.

We are however doing a Sketch Challenge, with one major prize of $50 - well worth playing girls. The sketch can be loaded either into the gallery or even linked from your blog to our blog so we can go see your sketch LO. The biggest change is that this challenge is going to be open to the WWW, not just our forum girls. - for now you can find the sketch challenge and some samples from our very talented DT here viewtopic.php?f=366&t=11240

New Kits - from here on in our step by steps from the girls are going to be based around a kit that will be available for purchase from the shop our first step by step will go up tonight - the kit will be on sale early next week.

Accouncement of last months winners will be done over the weekend - there are still just a couple of decisions to be made - it has been a tough call as this month will be our last where our winners will receive a prize - we wanted to think about it long and hard

ooh Happy New Year!! and Congrats to you an Danny, Lee-Anne !!!

Am really looking forward to seeing some great entries in the blog sketch challenge and the exciting new kits

Looking forward to your sketch challenge Lee-Anne. I'm sure its going to get interesting with a lot more ladies joining in. I love this site, its great for all the DT inspiration....keep up the great work girls xx shazza

Congratulations on the 4 years Lee-Anne and Danny. Looking forward to seeing some fabulous entries for the sketch challenge and what a fabulous prize.

All sounds really good Lee Anne. The work that gets done here is amazing!

Happy New Year Lee-Anne, I can say that this year and mean it since I am not working at the moment.
Congratulations to you and Danny on your 4th therapy anniversary.

Congratulations Lee-Anne and Danny. Wow, your journey has been amazing and so has mine, because of you. On my first encounter with Danny at DFO, I knew nothing, and now, after all your help, I feel that my cards have improved so much. Keep up the good work and your fantastic customer service.

Cheers for 4 years Leanne.. I sort skimmed over everything before. I was just getting the swing of things. But a change is good.

Happy New Financial Years. Here to many hours of scrapping chopping and glue together. May the mess be at your place and mine.

PS I know I am sad. Scrapping and my son is only life for me now

Happy New Year Hope you and Danny survived the madness.

Wow - I can't believe you guys have only been going 4 years - I'm not sure why, but I thought Scraptherapy had been up and running a lot longer than that!

Very excited to see the new changes and I'm keeping my eyes open for when the kit is revealed next week.

Happy New Year and 4 year anniversary

the previous owner had it about 6 months Christine until she decided it was not for her. To think when she first asked if I wanted to buy a scrapping business I said no - you can all thank Danny for telling me I had rocks in my head and of course I should do it.

thanks Danny!!!!

seriously????? 4 years already???????? Hasn't the whole industry changed so much in that time. Congrats at being and staying on top of the game all the way thru.

Happy 4th Scrap Therapy Anniversary and Happy "New Year" Danny and Lee-Anne!!

LOL Lee-Anne! Yay for Danny...ST has been such an inspirational place for me and even though I've struggled to find time/energy to scrapbook lately, I really enjoy the family-feel and checking out the amazingness of the DT's work...along with seeing what others create. I look forward to seeing the kits in due course

I love that you're doing kits!!! I have been browsing the sites trying to find a kit site that I liked and voila!!!! Right in my own backyard. You must have read my mind lol.
