***ONE OF EACH CARD PER PERSON ONLY***

Two page layout-
$2.00 CLUB MEMBERS ONLY: You must RSVP for this one by SEPT 1st! I have to order paper!

Perk- If you bring pictures to add to the layout, you can use my coordinating embellishments (as well as the scraps) to complete your layout... FREE! So it could look something like this:
Jeannie is hosting (and I am still waiting to get idea books! Sorry!!!)

BE SURE TO READ THE POST BELOW TO PARTICIPATE IN MY CONTEST!!!

New Tally Chart!

The old one was quite used and abused, but I liked the flower concept, so I copied it on new "Glittery" paper! Here it is:
FYI: Club members can earn tally marks for doing certain things listed on the stems of the flowers (attending, bringing artwork to show off, creating all available projects, bringing outside orders, spending extra money, ordering by end of club, and altering provided club projects.) The member with the most tally marks gets to choose first from my selection of prizes on the last night of club.

I also made a new "Please Come In" sign:
I love my job!

Free Page: If you can't attend, you will get the supplies (for this and the card), but will have to come up with your own background stamping, and assemble it on your own.

Free card: Bad picture, but the circle rotates so you can personalize it for the person you give it to!
$1.00 project: Tic-tac-toe "Labor of Love" for those of you who are always seeking a quite game for the kids! Plus, it's fun to make! We will laminate it at club too! Just use blue-tack to play, or add strips of velcro!

Can't wait to see ya!

February Club WEDNESDAY the 18th

Theme: Any Occasion

Club this month will be on WEDNESDAY the 18th. I know this is different, but 1/2 of the members will be gone, and my hubby will be on shift so, Wednesday it is!

I am excited about these projects because they are using the new Emporium paper pack that is adorable and so versatile. They are also two sided so you can make your projects different from the originals just by turning the paper over!

FREE project #1 is the page. It is very versatile and has lots of room for pictures. I have two completed that I will have at club to give you ideas of picture composition. I will also have the Rustic Alpha and Number stamp sets for you to choose from (or leave it blank).

FREE project #2 is this "Thinking of You" card that would be great for any occasion. It also has an envelope flat that you can stamp and add flair to if you want!

$1.00 project #1 is this circle opening card (envelope not shown)("thinking of you" again, perfect for any occasion!)

$1.00 Project #2 is this set of 2 3x3 cards. You guessed it...great for any occasion!

Please Leave a comment, or email me, what EXTRA projects you would like to do. Also, start thinking if you would like to renew your club commitment. April is the last month for club and I would like to keep going. I have a few options if we have less than the required 10 that we will talk about club night.

This month's Host is Amanda! (OH I forgot you wanted some idea books! I will get you some!)

The winner is...

MOM!!!
(aka Kash)
Way to go!

What a close contest! I posted it on the close to my heart consultant bulletin boards and asked them to choose their favorite and the cut-off was 9:00. Well, at 9:00, Mom and Michelle were TIED! So i decided the next one would be the tie breaker...9:04 someone voted for the MTC layout for the WIN! What a close contest! It was incredible, even the last three were within 1 vote of each other! Way to go ladies!!!

Once again, the winning Layout (and FYI it was her first layout ever!)

January Club

January club is on THURSDAY, the 15th

ATTENTION CLUBBERS... PLEASE REMEMBER:
I longer find it necessary to send the evites. Instead, I will just have you leave a comment on the corresponding club blog post, which you will (and have) receive the email with an attachment directing you here! In your comment, let me know if you will be in attendance, and any extra project(s) you would like to have prepared for you to do.

Happy New Year! I hope you all had a great Christmas and have got it scrapped already! (yeah right!) Well, as you know, one of the free projects was taken home to be created on your own. Be sure to bring it to club and enter it in the contest. The other free project will be a Valentine card. (that can also be used as a wedding/anniversary/love card).

I only have one $ project this month (which means if you don't do it, all you will be making at club is the card... weird huh?!) The page below is a very generic neutral page that you could basically throw any pictures on, title, and call it good! I have also assembled a few ideas of arranging your layout to fit your scrapping needs.

This first one is what it will look like assembled.
These next 4 are just some photo layout ideas (the green pcs represent pictures/sizes)



This last one is how I completed mine.


I will post your "Homework" after I get pictures of all of them at club.

Remember if you can't attend, please have your order to me by Thursday, the 15th.
