March Play Group Scrappin' Class Layouts and Cards (Charlotte)




The deadline to order your long-distance kits or sign up to attend March classes in person is Saturday, February 12 by 10 pm MT.  Just call or email me to sign up (801.360.9896, pedermom@aol.com).

We'll be making four 2-page 12" x 12"  layouts using our soft and beautiful Charlotte papers, as well as adding a 9 card option to the layouts this month.  To create all four layouts, all you need is the Basic Kit. If you want to add the 9 cards, you'll need to get all or part of the Better Kit  (just order the items from this kit you don't already have), and if you are participating long-distance and want to do both the layouts and the cards, you'll want to order all or part of the Best Kit (just order any items you don't already own).  Hopefully that's clearer than mud (*wink*).  Please call or email me if you have any questions and I'm happy to answer them for you (801.360.9896, pedermom@aol.com).

March Dates and Times to Choose From:

  • Thursday evening, March 10 from 7-10 pm in Pleasant Grove, UT
  • Friday morning, March 11 from 10 am - 1 pm in American Fork, UT
After the layout  and card photos, you'll find the shopping list.  In order to participate, you are only required to purchase the Basic Kit, but you are more than welcome to buy the Better or Best Kits, or to pick and choose from some of those items to add to your Basic Kit.  You'll see the kit totals in the shopping list below. I've also included a products list, complete with photos and links, at the end of this post for your convenience.  Also, please go back and read the bolded paragraph above to be sure you understand which kits get you just the layouts, and which kits add the card option.

Feel free to click on any image to see it larger and in more detail. For each layout, I've included a photo of the layout with photos (with measurements included for each of the photo mats), and some detail shots.

This stamp set will help you do just that.  It's great for birthday cards and layouts, and anything that involves a bit of celebrating.

I used my handy 3-D foam tape to pop up that cute pink elephant.  It just adds a little dimension to the card, and makes him even more of the focal point!
