Grateful for some beautiful Fall weather this week!!!!!

I have a lot to be grateful for and right now this weather is making me so happy.  Cool evenings...yes, but the days are in the 60's and fine and beautiful.  We started off fall with some cold and miserable slap-in-the face winter-is-here type days.  So now I can be extra grateful for the beauty.  Just wasn't ready for winter in September.  Another thing I am grateful for...fun times in Idaho and at the CTMH album retreat.  Grateful for a great class at work to work with.  I could go on, but it is time to get this post up so people can see the great Huntington Fall layouts.  Remember back when people were draped with color swatches to determine your season?  Well, I am an "autumn" so maybe I am even more especially drawn to these colors than all you winters out there.  But I LOVE them.  Perfect for any fall photos you have going.... Thanksgiving, playing in the leaves, rustic cabin photos, nature, garden, etc. etc.  I know you don't get the newsletter until the classes are about here, but don't hesitate to sign up...I have some extra paper kits and will be happy to have you participate.  Then in December we will be doing the pages and cards using the Frosted paper pack and the bonus Christmas layouts can be done either in December or January...so budget up for doing 2 kits one of these months.

Cost of the Huntington Kit:  $21 with the 2 layouts and 4 cards
     I have everything precut for your scrapbooking pleasure...
     (not interested in doing the cards?  no problem...only $20 for the layouts.
Cards only:  8 cards (2 of each design) are only $10  

Oh and guess what...card crafting is making a new come-back.  For many of us, it never went anywhere, but it is good to know that the rest of the people are catching on again.  Sweet!!!!

Dates we will be having our CREATIVE CLASS:
November 12, Here at my home in Orem at 6:00
November 13, Down south in Mapleton at 5:30ish
November 14, At my home again in Orem at 12:30 in the afternoon

Here is the photo.  We did add some mats with colonial white on the 2nd layout to brighten it up a bit.  We will be using Desert Sand and Barn Red ink and sponges to do the edges.  Looking forward to good times in November.

 

Laughing Lola: October Groups

Wow, September flew by and October is already here and newsletters are going out and hey, my blog isn't really updated yet.  What happened to last month?  Not sure except that...Fall hit.  I am really hoping some new or former people will want to do these pages and  cards because they are interesting and beautiful and have great colors, etc.   So please if you have thought "I ought to do this..." now is a great time to change it to "I am going to do this...now"

Here are the pictures...same as in the newsletter.

I have changed the lower layout title to be "You are amazing".  Wanted to use the Workshop on the Go stamp set.  Love playing with the paisleys and the very cute circle flowers and hey...I am still loving the notebook page on layout 1 with the cute cricut cut and stamp from our new Artbooking cricut cartridge.  Very tempting to put that on every layout.  I know these are not your typical Halloween October fare, so you are on your own to do Halloween pages this time.  Several consultants have used these papers for Halloween and Jen came up with a cute little decoration.  The base is actually only 12 inches so it is a mini...but so VERY fun and cute.  I have a ccr file for anyone who has the Artbooking cartridge and would like it. 

We will be using slate ink to sponge edges if anyone wants to bring their own sponge and ink pads.  I love how slate adds that soft edging with a little softer look than black. 

Cost of class:  $20 with only the layouts and $21 to add the cards in

Cards only:   (2 of each for a total of 8 cards)  $10
