It’s Australia Day!

Pickleberrypop is proud to be Australian-owned and operated, we have an amazing bunch of talented Aussie designers and Creative Team members too, and we consider our International Designers and CT members as adopted Aussies! They do a great job of pretending they understand our Aussie slang anyway! So we can’t let Australia Day pass by without celebrating!

Below is a summary of the fun things we have going on…make sure you’re ready for some laughs!


Australia Day Sale Items!
Everything in the Mate’s Rates category is discounted until Jan 27th, 2010!

but that’s not all…
Two lucky shoppers who shop at PBP from now until January 27 will win a free set of steak knives, errrr, no, sorry, not steak knives (I’ve been watching too many info-mercials), they will win…drumroll…



Photojojo! The Book!
It’s a yellow-hued hunk of papery good, jam-packed with the finest of DIY photo tips, tricks, advice, projects and ideas. All for inspiring you to do something spectacular with your photos.

How do you enter? Just shop at PBP from now until Jan 27 and you will be automatically placed into the draw!

Bumming Around Challenge!
Many of us Aussies are relaxed, laid back people, who love nothing more than to ‘bum’ around! So this task is to scrap a layout about what you or someone else likes to do to relax and unwind.
Check out the All sorts of Challenges forum for full details!

Fancy a game of Cow Pat Lotto?
Our wide, brown land is vast, and much of the farming land you see in Australia is spotted with cows. Shhhhhhhhh! What’s that noise? Those cheeky PickleMoo’s have broken out of the paddock again, and are running amock! One of them has just laid a fresh cow pat – DON’T step in it, whatever you do!

Can you guess which cow laid the fresh cow pat?

Check out the Fun & games forum for full details and prizes!

Happy Australia Day, and most of all…enjoy!
