September Play Group Scrappin' Class Layouts (Avonlea)

Hello!  Miss me? I have been out of town all week and am finally home and back in my little office. I had a wonderful time this past week visiting our son, Easton and his wife, Daysha.  Unfortunately Dan and Dawson were unable to join us (thanks to work and school...bah humbug), but Tannon, Kori, Rick, Daci, Street, Livvi and I all got to go for several days. We even went to watch Daysha perform at Tuachan (in St. George, UT) in both Hairspray and Aladdin.  She was superb. If you find yourself in the St. George area, definitely go see a play!  After that I spent the rest of the week as a guest speaker for a company called My Lazy Daisy at their national convention. I spoke 4 different times and I really enjoyed it. I hope they did too! Whew! I'm pooped. Forgive me for not commenting as much on your blogs this past week.

And now I am sure you are all wondering, "Why in the heck is this post titled 'September Play Group Scrappin' Class Layouts' and all we are hearing about is Karen's famly?"  Never fear! It's coming.  Just humor me and check out a few photos from our week below:

Two of my boys had football games this past week. Here are a few memories of that:

Now on to the REAL reason you are here: September Play Group Classes.  Class dates are almost here (September 20 and 21) and I would LOVE to have you join us in!  Today I am sharing the three 2-page 12" x 12" layouts we will be making with the beautiful new Avonlea kit (click on any photo to see it larger and in more detail).


You can participate in my Play Group classes in one of three ways:

1.  Attend a class in person
2.  Host one in your home with your friends (and earn free product!)
3.  Participate long distance. Just add $5 to the kit total you see to have your kit shipped directly  from me to you.

I'm confident you will enjoy what we do and be very happy with the projects you make!  Keep reading...

I need to hear from you no later than Saturday, September 15 if you want to participate.  We will be making three 2-page 12" x 12" layouts using the Avonlea kit that are just beautiful, if I do say so myself. If you follow my blog, you have seen a ton of artwork using this paper pack over the past couple of months. I love it!  These layouts are perfect for family photos, heritage photos, black and whites, and so much more  The list is endless.  Just call or email me to sign up (801.360.9896, pedermom@aol.com).

After the layout photos, you'll find the shopping list.  To attend or participate in a class, all you are required to purchase is the Basic Kit.  If you want to purchase the Better or Best Kits, or even pick and choose a few items from those to add to your Basic Kit, you are welcome to, but it is not required.
