All Square

Hello,

I'm pleased to let you know that I can now take payments via Visa, MasterCard and Amex.  I know some of you have been asking me about it for some time so I've done my research and found a little Square Reader from Office Works which does the job beautifully.  

I've decided not to charge a surcharge for this payment method - it probably costs me more to drive to the bank with the cash so I think it's a bit cheeky when businesses do that.   

If you want to use this facility for emailed orders I'll have to call you so that I can put the details in the machine, so please remember to put your phone number on your email if I don't have it already.

Have a great week,

Barb 

New Catalogue Supplement is out!

Hello again,


Two posts in one week... what is the world coming to!!!

Well more exciting news from Azza - our new Catalogue supplement is available on the website.  Go to https://online.flippingbook.com/view/859732, this should take you direct to the 'flippy book'.

Take a look at the beautiful new template and theme kits.  If you want to see them in the flesh check out the Bunbury class times on the tab above.

This edition covers Nov, Dec and Jan releases.   Normally you have to wait until the start of the month before I can place an order, but we are currently accepting advance orders for those on the DECEMBER list only.   This is because the boxes are going to be specially packed for us in Australia and once the stock is gone there will be no extras.  So take a look and get your orders in to me please.

Email: barbara.azza@gmail.com

If you are collecting your order from me in Bunbury the postage contribution remains at $3.50, post direct to your home is at cost (for the Christmas box will be $17.80 due to it's size).    Why not club together with a couple of friends and share the postage cost?  Please contact me if you want to do this.

Until next time,  happy scrapping :-)

Easy Essential Page & Bunbury Classes

I thought you might like to see one of the page I finished yesterday - I was using it to demo our style at the South West Seniors Expo.  

It was lovely to meet so many people who haven't seen Azza before and to hear their reactions to the style.  All were very complimentary.  I also met a couple of ladies who had seen us - at the Quilt and Craft - and are keen to come along to one of my classes here in Bunbury.

At the moment I've set aside Thursday evening, Friday morning and Saturday afternoons for classes - although I haven't worked out if they will be weekly, fortnightly or monthly.  That depends on what everyone wants and how many other events I'm going to.

I'm looking forward to showing lots of new ladies the style and seeing their faces light up when they produce beautiful pages so easily. Everyone is welcome, so let me know if you would like to come along - 'First in best dressed' as they say.

New AZZA CLUB launched!!!

Hello everyone, 

What an exciting day... a cup? what cup?  where? oh that, well it's only a flat race, nothing to get stoked about.   I can give you the real excitement,  the new Azza Club Catalogue has been released!   We have lots of new gifts for our loyal customers - and now you can start spending with only one 125 point card.  How good is that????  take a look at the new flippy book on our website - click here to open: https://online.flippingbook.com/view/996473  

You can use cards that you have stashed away in your craft supplies, or ones that I have held here for you - just drop me a quick email or text message if you want to know how many you have.

Spend them on yourself or get these exclusive gifts for a crafty friend.  What a great way to do your Christmas shopping!

Talking of which... watch this space, our Nov/Dec/Jan supplement will be out shortly and there are lots of lovely new products to play with.   Here is a sneek preview of two really simple pages I've done with our November template, called 'Noisette':

These two use just paper (our beautiful pre-embossed paper 'rust') and a couple of writer pens.  The one below also uses the deco-stencil 'autumn'.  

It's a really easy template to use so I'm sure you'll find lots of your lovely photos will fit easily into it.

Let me know if you'd like a demo to see it in action, or a class to try it out for yourself.

I'm going to be working out class times for Bunbury in the next day or two, so if you have a preference for a day and time let me know & I'll make it to suit you!

Meanwhile, Have fun scrapping and looking for inspiration. And don't forget to send me your Christmas list.

Hello everyone,

We have finally made our 'sea change' and moved to beautiful Bunbury.   I'm busy sorting out the house and helping Gus with his new business, but hope to get some Azza classes going soon.

My craft room is coming on slowly... 

but we are getting there.  Next week I fly off to Queenland for our national conference.  When I get back I'll be brimming with ideas and new products to share and show so do let me know when you would like a class.  You can come here or I can come to you, anywhere in the South West!

I'm looking forward to showing you all so much more about the Azza European scrapbooking style that you will probably have seen briefly at the Quilt and Craft in Perth over the years.  I hope to be at some of the local shows this year and next so look out for me and come to say 'hello'.  It's great to put names to faces.
That's all for now, more boxes to go..

Quilt and Craft Report

I've come back down to earth after a wonderful Quilt and Craft show at Perth Convention Centre. Team West has lots of people to contact who would like to know more about Azza Scrapping so there will be more classes going on left right and centre in the next few weeks.   

I'll also be hosting an 'All About Azza' Session for anyone who wants to come along to find out about running your own business teaching European Scrapbooking with Azza.  If you love the style and want to come along to see how we work just get in touch and I'll make sure you get an invite.

Meanwhile, watch this space for class and demo details - and if none come up to suit you, drop me a line and I'll arrange something just for you.

Happy Scrapping

Getting moving again

My cast is off, but arm not fully fixed yet.  I think it will take some time and a bit of physio.  I haven't got back into scrapping so don't have any new pages to show you, but do check out the new catalogue on our website if you haven't seen it yet.

http://www.azzaworld.com.au/2016-catalogue/
We will have quarterly updates so watch out for the first one on 1 May.

You can purchase a hard copy for $10+Postage if you'd rather have that. 

Look forward to seeing you at a class.

Happy Scrapping.

Hello Scrappers,

I hope you all had a wonderful Easter and were able to collect some happy memories in your cameras, phones and hearts.   Are you ready to scrap them to preserve and share?

I’m pleased to say I have a range of classes to offer again so take your pick.   If you have a group you’d like me to come to just give me a shout.  I hope to have the cast off by 15^th April, so should be mobile again soon after.

New Old Class

Some of my regular ladies have asked me to run a traditional Azza course, it’s what we call the ‘interlocking’ technique.  Basically you use shapes rather than a template and ‘freestyle’.  There are six classes and we cover:

·         circles & ovals,

·         hexagons & fantasy shapes,

·         spiro & trimmer

·         how to use the templates to achieve this technique,

·         and basic azza decoration.    

I’ve got a couple of places on the first class this Saturday (2 April) at 2pm, but will hold another ‘Step 1’ on Wednesday 20 April, 7.30pm, after that, chose to come to the Sat or Wed.   No previous Azza or scrapbooking experience necessary.

Here are a couple of ideas of what you might achieve in your first class:

Regular Azza classes

Continue on Saturdays 9 April and 14 May at 2pm – booking essential.

SPECIAL – “Open That Bag”

Have you had a tidy up ready for the craft & quilt show this year and found your bag from last year? Want a reminder what to do?  Special class for you, bring the bag, open it up and let’s get you using it.

Saturday 30 April 2pm,

Wednesday 11 May 7.30pm

ALL Classes

You only need bring your photos, I provide everything else, (unless you want to ‘bring your bag’),

Cost: $25

Time: approx. 3 hrs

You’ll leave with a finished page, and the inspiration and knowledge to build an Azza page yourself.

Booking for all classes is essential – by email please.

Look forward to catching up and hearing your stories.

Happy scrapping,

Barb

Happy Azza New Year

Happy New Year Everyone,

I hope you received lots of lovely crafty things for Christmas.
If you are still waiting for Santa to fill your stockings, or just can't get enough crafty stuff, below I have attached the latest new products from AZZA.

You'll see we have a fantastic new tool - all concentric circles, in fact, 3 different sizes.  These plastic circles pop out of each other to give almost infinite number of masks to use when you are chalking, inking or just wanting to mark your photos/paper to cut.   I know we have been creating already in 2016 and have found them SOOOO useful.

Click here to open the slides in a new window

Let me know if you want to order anything - just send me your name and contact details and the code & name of the products, and i'll be in touch.

Keep watching this blog to see our clearance items coming soon (see 'follow by email' on the right, and you'll get email updates)

Meanwhile, have a wonderful 2016, keep healthy and crafty, enjoy time with your loved ones and a little for yourself too.
