Now who wouldn't love a box full of lolly pops and flowers ... especially when the flowers can be reused in your scrapping once you have finished with all the Sugar!!





Project created by Bev Watt

For the base Bev has used a gift box from a cheapie shop but a milk can or one of the lunch tins from The Scrap Heap with the lid open would look really cool.

She stuffed the bottom with tissue paper and then cut a block of florist foam to fit inside the box. They sell this at most junk shops or you could ask a florist if they will sell you some.

You then take some mini chuppa chups/lolly pops (these are sold in packets at woolies etc, they are smaller than the usual chuppa chups) and thread the stick through the middle of the mulberry flower and arrange them in the container.

To finish it off Bev added some larger all day suckers along the back. Wrap in cellophane and add a bow and you are done!

Bev says that she has also made some other similar gift ideas with different themes including other items such as little garden ornaments like a frog or a fairy.

Products used:

Green Tara 7cm Mulberry Paper Petals


Hope it gets your creative gift-giving ideas flowing since it is only .....

104 Days

until Christmas (sorry bout that LOL)

Thanks everyone!!

Hello everyone,

As you all know we have a Gallery attached to our website where we welcome you to upload your layouts and other paper craft creations.

I love to look at all the layouts in the Gallery and am frequently inspired by the creations that are uploaded there as are lots of other people, I am sure.

Now another big part of the Gallery, for me, is the smile I get when I receive comments, questions or feedback about my scrapping in the Gallery. It is lovely to think that my online friends are looking at and appreciating my photos or the work that has gone into the creations.

One of our most prolific commenters at our Gallery would have to the lovely Bev Watt who comments on every single layout that is uploaded to the Gallery one by one. She always has the nicest, supportive, most positive things to say and anyone who knows Bev, knows that it comes straight from the heart.

Well to promote a bit of scrapping amongst our Online friends and to get you all uploading your layouts to The Scrap Heap Gallery, Bev has donated a Gift Voucher for $20 that will go to the person who receives her 20,000th comment in the Gallery.

We at The Scrap Heap have also decided to match this with two more Gift Vouchers for $10 each ... one for the person before who uploads just before and the one who uploads just after the person with number 20,000. Cos you know it's horrible when you miss winning by just one isn't it ??

As I said Bev comments, in order, on every layout that goes into the Gallery, one after another and she has about 100 comments to go to reach the 20,000th.

So ... to make a long story short ... all you need to do is upload your layouts that you create this month to our Gallery and then just sit back and wait for the comments to arrive and you may just be that lucky 20,000 comment from Bev and win a $20 Gift Voucher donated by Bev to spend at www.thescrapheap.com.au or the not quite as lucky person before or person after who gets a $10 voucher to spend :-)

Just letting you know that I have just added a heap of new Bo Bunny Papers and Stickers and things that we picked up yesterday.

Thought you might want to know since Bo Bunny is our Product of the Month this month so all of these yummy new products are 10% off during August - so might be worth having a look while they are on special.

http://www.thescrapheap.com.au/index.html?target=dept_2112.html&lang=en-gb


Also the lovely ladies from Bumble Bee Crafts Wholesale (the Aussie Bo Bunny Distributors) have donated a Bo Bunny Prize Pack worth around $100 and we will be drawing a name from the hat of all the people who order anything Bo Bunny through the month of August. If you have already ordered some this month I will put your name in for the draw so don't worry :-)

I will take a photo of the prize over the weekend so you can see what there is in there.

Hope you like the New Products
