Hi everyone....Lyn Dwyer here.......with a report on our Aussie Fiskateer's First Birthday Bash held yesterday August 28th.
To help celebrate the Fiskateers being one year old we decided to host our own Fiskateer Party here in Victoria.
Erica Johnstone was the original brains behind the party idea and PAULA CLARK offered to host it at her house.
After many hours of planning and preparation the party went off without a hitch....so much fun....and the on-line CHALLENGES kept the Fiskateer message board ticking over......so funny to watch it all unfold from PAULA'S house.
We opened it up to any FISKATEERS who would like to join us.....including Fiskateers from around the world. We wanted everyone to join in with us.....spread the Fiskars love!!
All the food was in orange and green colours to co-ordinate with The CLOUD 9 Resort Range.....
PAULA had put together some on-line challenges and ERICA taught us all how to make this cute "Explosion Box"......take a peek.....
these two girls just crack me up with their sense of fun....and we had such a fabulous time....even wore our Fiskars aprons....PAULA had made us all a name tag with our Fiskateer number......I decorated some goody noodle boxes for all the participants..and included some surprises........many thanks to FISKARS for supplying us with prizes and goodies......
.
We really did have so much fun......we would like to invite others to join the FISKATEERS ....it's as easy as clicking on the Fiskateer website and following the prompts....a lead Fiskateer will then invite you to join......so what are you waiting for.....go have a look!
If you would like to see more pics from the day.....click on my blog....click on Erica or Paula's blogs....the links are in my sidebar! Let's hope that we can have even more Fiskateers join us for our second birthday bash next year......it's so great to actually get together and have some fun....play with the fabulous Fiskars tools and products and share ideas and have a great big belly laugh....well we had a few of those........( click on any pics for an enlarged view)

Hi everyone, Kylie here :0) just thought I would share my little draw set with you all.
I purchased thie cute little pine draw set at my local GO LO store and covered them with the Heidi Grace - Love Blossom range of papers. I painted the tops of the draws with Pink paint and distressed around the edges with sand paper! I have also added a little ribbon to finish the draw set off!
I now store all my little decorative pins in the draws I am addicted to the Heidi Grace ones just love those little hearts.
Thanks for looking girls - enjoy.......

Hi all, Annette here just thought I would jump on and say "hi" and introduce myself. Sitting up here in sunny old Cairns wishing that I was down visiting mum and dad in Sydney so I could pop on out to Sydney Stitches and Craft show to join in the creating with Nancy from Cloud 9. Looks like fun girls - enjoy.
Thought I would share a card with you guys that I made last night using Heidi Grace Bouquet Jersey Stripe paper and Bouquet Words paper, Flocked tags, flower additions and the basic font clear stamps. Gorgeous colours don't you think? I'm a bit of a pink girl! This blog business is all a little new to me so lets see if I can manage to insert a picture here, fingers crossed - have a great day everyone.

Hi! Trina here, just thought I'd show you the free class I recently finished teaching at NZ Scrapbook's mega store grand opening, here on the North Shore of Auckland, run by Fiskars (of course! ;))
I decided to make the LO twice to show the class how different a page can look, just by swapping out a few things....ie the paper range/colours and the type of photo - adult/baby and black and white/colour).
We had a heap of fun and made lots of noise, especially with 23 people using the Fiskars eyelet setters!
I used the following tools/paper:
Heidi Grace Vineyard and Wildflower paper/embellishment ranges
Ultra shape Xpress with the circle and tag templates, 12" Trimmer, Eyelet setters, Scrap boss, Soft touch scissors.
The classes Fiskars put on are amazing value! I hope if you're able you'll have the opportunity to see Nancy in action and complete one of her classes coming up in Sydney.
