An update, new kits launching soon, stock, and some sad news...

Good Afternoon Ladies and Gents…  How are we today?  It’s Beck here with a new update for y’all.  Oh my goodness, there is SO much for me to tell you…

First of all, here’s a timely reminder that Kit and Caboodle is holding another Crop’n Classes event at the end of this month.  Saturday 29th November at the Highfield School Hall, from 9am-6pm.  This will also be the launch day for our next two kits.  EXCITED much?  LOL! 

Crop'n Classes will run pretty much like last time.  One class in the morning, the other in the afternoon and a scrummy lunch in the middle.  There will be rolling tea and coffee available all day.  Purchase any kit(s) and attendance is free, otherwise, come and crop the day away with other like-minded ladies for only $10.  You're guaranteed a laugh or two, I promise!

At last, I can finally tell you a whole lot more about what’s actually IN the kits.  Are you ready?  Grab a cuppa…

OK, first off, Rosie’s kit.  This kit showcases the Heidi Swapp 6x8” chipboard album, which will be decorated inside and out with Heidi’s gorgeous September Skies papers and ephemera, and some cute Prima flowers (see image below for products used). 




What you can’t see here is that the Album comes with 12 page refills:  Four with 6x8” pockets, four with two 6x4” pockets, and four with four 3x4” pockets.  It really is super cute. 

Now I reckon that this kit would make a really lovely gift or Christmas present for someone (or even yourself?!).  Packed with well over $60 worth of product, this really is great value at our kit price of $50.

AND, as a special treat for this month (well Christmas is coming, isn’t it?), there is an add-on kit available that co-ordinates perfectly with Rosie’s kit…





The add-on contains two more sheets of patterned paper, a set of cute library pockets and cards, word jumble stickers and epoxy word stickers.  You get all this (over $25 worth of product) for just $20.  A bargain, I tell ya!

But wait, there’s more…  (and it’s NOT a free set of ginsu steak knives, lol!)

I have a kit for you for this month too… I call this one “3 in 3 – Let’s Do This!”  Do you ever have trouble finishing your layouts?  Do you spend simply AGES deciding where to stick this flower or that piece of paper?  Well, this is the kit for you!  Join me as I take you through a fun-filled 3 hour class where we will create 3 (yes, that’s right, THREE) layouts.  We’ll be using the latest Marion Smith Romance Novel 2 and Prima Forever Green papers in gorgeous shades of pink, aqua, black and white.  We’ll combine these with co-ordinating embellishments, hand picked by me, just for YOU!  We’ll also have a play with one of the We R Memory Keepers pocket page refills, trying our hand at ‘Project Life’ styled scrapping.  Take a look at what you get in the kit:




Again, this is over $60 worth of product for the kit price of $50.  An added bonus for the ladies that attend class on the day, they will get to have a play with these:




But never fear ladies, those of you who purchase the kits but cannot attend on the day will have their kit ‘pre-sprayed’ in advance :)

Now, as always, these kits come with complete full colour instructions to walk you through the projects that we have designed for you.  They are lovingly packaged in sturdy pizza boxes nestled in a layer of pink tissue.  It’s just like opening a present.  For yourself.  GENIUS!


Now what else have I got to tell you… LOTS!

Did you know that Kit and Caboodle also have stock for sale?  We surprised some of you with this at our last Crop’n Classes event.  Even better news, we have MORE now than we did last time!
We will very shortly be starting a sales page on the blog and on our Facebook page, which will be updated on a regular basis as stock arrives or is sold off the shelf.  Although we will do our best to keep stock levels accurate, bear in mind that items may sell out quickly.  We will do our very best to keep you supplied!

For now, here is a taster of some yummy wood veneers we have in stock:


Super cute flourish  - $3
5 different birdcages - $3
6 mini frames (2 each of 3 designs) - $3
16 pce set of cars, bikes, planes and boats (4 pces each shape, 2 small 2 med) - $4

How’s that cuppa going?  Need a refill yet?  Now might be a good time!  Carrying on…

Now for some bittersweet news.  Kit and Caboodle is going better than we expected, for which we are very grateful.  YAY!  Sadly though, this month will be Rosie’s last month designing kits.  Unfortunately work commitments have meant that she hasn’t had the spare time she would have liked to invest in Kit & Caboodle.  It’s just not fair when work gets in the way of fun, is it? 

But never fear, this is not the end.  She will still continue to support me as my able–bodied assistant on crop days, and at other Kit & Caboodle events.  So here’s a round of applause for Rosie… 



Thanks Mum.  This wouldn’t have got off the starting blocks without you!

Phew!  I think that's it, you're all up to date!  So what happens now?  Well, you email me RIGHT NOW at kitandcaboodletimaru@gmail.com to reserve your kit(s) and/or book your spot at the Crop'n Classes event, ok?  Good!


Talk soon peeps,

Toodles, Beck and Rosie xx
