If you would like to get the kits regularly, but not commit to a subscription, simply email me to let me know and I will reserve a kit for you and invoice you each month unless I hear differently!

Please note I am shutting the Etsy Shop today so I can do stocktake and update all the shipping prices.............I will re-open the shop again on Friday. If you need anything urgently please let me know!!!!

PS - QTea kits are still only $20.............awesome really when you think about it!

Hey there Mr Postman!

Our sweet friends at Australia Post have increased the cost of stamps here in Australia, so that means your kits are going to cost a little more to post from now on............

Australia $1.20
Asia/Pacific $3.00
Rest of the World $4.30

A 10c increase for Aussies and a 20c increase for the rest of you..............that wasn't too painful now was it?
Obviously those of you with pre-paid subs won't have to pay extra until you renew!
Happy Days!

my little cub scout..

I'm finally able to share my layout using the fabulous Scouts Honour kit.. it provided me with the perfect motivation to go and scrap one of my daughter's cub scout pics that I'd been putting off for far too long....

I love anything to do with toadstools..so made a feature of the s'hroom notepaper on the page, along with the cool scout merit badges!


I've also used some of the sweet flower trim, forest fruits button mix and cut out a girl from the vintage brownie bookpaper..


well, that's it from me for now.. I hope you're enjoying creating with your kit as much as I have been..Don't forget to share if you are!

Bye for now, Gina xox

The adventure story....

Book. I made this little book using the entire "Scout's Honour" kit. I also pulled out my water colours and had a play with them using a mix of colour combo's a little different than I am used too. Lime green and orange feature a lot in this book along with some qtea goodies from previous kits.
Along with all of these feature pages it is also jam packed with lined and blank pages to add lots of photos and journaling.





I loved everything about this kit and I plan on waiting until summer comes to fill it up with all our family adventures camping, fishing etc. Also my girls are joining the girl guides shortly and it would be perfect to document their time there.

I am going to miss logging into Qtea and sharing my projects with you all but my 6 months as a creative team member is up and you will soon be seeing some new faces and new projects that I am sure will inspire us all with our Qtea kits ;)

I want to thank Jodi "Thank you Jodi" for having me on the team along with Sharmaine, Gina and Merdrey. I have loved every minute of it and of course I will continue to love my Qtea kits as well.

Take care
Love Belinda xxx

All aboard!!
The Scouts Honour kit is selling and it’s full of delightful goodies.

Here is something I made with just a few of the goodies

Here in Tasmania we have just had our school holidays and we went to visit Grandma in Ballarat. While there she treated us to a trip on the Maldon to Castlemaine train. It’s run by volunteers and we all had a wonderful time.
In my kit there was a travel merit badge with a train track, PERFECT!

Can you spy the mushroom paper?? That is actually the inside of the Kikki-K envelope that is in the kit (I swoon at anything Kikki-K). One of the things I love about QTea kits is looking at it’s contents and finding different ways of using them. I could have used the envelope as it was but instead I pulled it apart and used just a section.
Another thing that I used a little differently was the  ric rac.
I cut it up and used it to frame my photo.

Can’t wait to see what others make with the kit and what fabulous ways the kit contents get used. Make sure you add your creations to the Flickr group so you can inspire others to create :)
Right, Dib Dib Dib Dob Dob Dob and I am outta here ;)
