Hi I'm Alicia. I am a paper addict and have been since I was a child. I have always had paper (and usually a pen/pencil/marker/ink ) in my hand. I find it very hard to not add to my collection when shopping. Over the past 8 years, the addiction has grown and been inspired by the wonderful and eve rinspiring ways in which the scrapbooking and paper crafting world has evolved.
I am not frighted to try out new techniques or products and getting my hands dirty is not a problem at all. I Cardmaking, off the page, mixed media, altered art, scrapbooking and everything inbetween are all apart of what I create and teach.
In 2007, I joined Kaszazz as a hobbist and have watched them change and grow with the paper crafting world. My hobby grew considerably in a short amount of time and at one stage I was a Senior Team Leader with 12 wonderful paper enthusiasts on my team.
I am an extremely lucky women, with an amazing husband and two gorgeous boys who have supported me and helped with the many challenges, emotions, triumphs and rewards I have faced while being part of Kaszazz.
I am very excited about being able to do this. I hope you all like it and find it a place of reference and inspiration. Feel free to add comments (only if they are nice one's - please keep nasty thoughts to yourself).

I have been trying hard to use up all my scraps. And trust me when I say, I have lots!!!!!. So, with limited supplies in front of me, and a huge pile of scraps, I came up with this design. To start of with I was not sure I was overly keen on it. The more I look at it the more I like it. What do you think? sorry about the quality of the photo. My camera is playing up
I can honestly say I love my little ATC. Not really sure what I was going to do with it or where I was going to keep it. So, today (while the girls were here playing with craft supplies), I decided I would turn it into a card. Once again, I still love it, Would really like it if you could see the shimmer that the smooch spritz gives the card. I honestly never thought it would be so, so shiny. I decided to spray the other colours onto a piece of card just to see what it would look like. It was beautiful when finished. Unfortunately I am not going to be able to put it on here for you to see as the camera does not do it justice at all. If you like shiny things, I recommend getting your hands on some Smooch Spritz!!
Ok, i know i am a little early with this photo, but I am hanging out to start my next challenge. I have used the new smooch spritz, to do the background. Love the sparkle that this product has. It is a shame that the camera, does not pick it up. Smooch siren has been used to colour in the blossoms that were stamped in coal black ancient page. Picket fence distress stickles has been used in the centre of the blosssoms. The branches have been coloured in with aquacolor crayons. The "love life" and blossom are from Kaszazz's atc set of stamps. The more I use these stamps the more I love them. Perfect for that little word.
I finally have confirmation, that I will be back at Morella Community House as of this Monday (01/02/10). cost for the classes will be the same as last year $5 up until the 1st of March. There has been a change in funding from the government (since the beginning of the financial year), so Morella will not be able to continue to supplement the class after this date. We will continue to work together to find a more suitable solution inorder for the class to continue. If you would like to come to Morella to do a class it is every Monday from 12:30 to 2:30. Hope to see some of you there!!!
Well, I thought I may as well, share with you the details, of the next swap while I am here. Due in a fortnight, an ATC, with an Asian theme. Not to sure how we are all going to cope with this one. I sincerley hope we suprise ourselves. The idea of the swap is to make us think outside our usual designs and comforts. It is to make us try something new and to use Kaszazz products that are not always at the top of our "favourite list". Let's see how we cope. My creation will be uploaded as soon as I have finished it. Due date for this is 6th February
