We've got the info for the next two months! The program is winding down :( but... Basic Grey is going to continue the program :)
September's layout will be using the new Indian Summer papers - they're beautiful! The subject is "This I Believe" and Nic Howard talked about how important her daughter is to her and her family. You'll need 1 - 4" x 6" and 2 - 4" x 4" pics. She uses black and white.
October's subject will be "I Am Unique". Kelly Goree did this one - I really like her layouts. I can't quite make out what her journaling says, but I guess this one's pretty self-explanitory! We'll be using the new "Eerie" Halloween line for this - and it looks great. You'll need 2 - 4" x 6" ; 3 - 3" x 3" and 1 - 3" x 6" black and white photos.
I'll get the pictures posted as soon as I can. Sorry, I can't seem to load it right now.

"RAINBOW SHERBERT" $15
Our latest Basic Grey layout - the name says it all, doesn't it?
Monday, August 10 6pm
We don't have a date set for this yet - if you have any preference, please let us know. It would make a great "candy bowl" for some Halloween candy! There's LOTS of measuring for this box. We'll be offering templates instead of measuring everything out ~ for an additional charge :)
We will be offering a similar one at the Weekend Retreat with a Christmas theme.
CARD CLUB - JULY
Here are the cards for July's Card Club. I you have pictures of your own you would like to use on the two "photograph" cards, you are welcome to bring them.
Basic Grey Page of the Month - July & August
July's topic is My Circle of Friends. I still need 2 more pics to finish mine :(
You need 9 - 4" x 6" photos for this one.
August's subject is Reveal the Real Me - interesting, hmmm...
1 - 5" x 7" ~or~ 4 - 2 1/2" x 3 1/2" ~or~ if you are feeling really "creative", you can cut your 5 x 7 into 4 pieces.
Unnamed Layout Contest
Just wanted to show the newly named "Feelin' Groovy" without the pictures so you can be thinking about what YOU would like to do with it!
Happy 4th of July!
Hope everyone has a fun, SAFE holiday!
POOL PARTY
If you're planning to do this layout, make sure you have your pictures with you!!! Click on the picture to see it larger so you get an idea of what to look for. Bev will have "extra" drops of "water" for you to use, so don't stress out if you don't have enough.
Lazy Daze - grab those lazy day pics of your children, husband, pet or your favorite zoo animal :)
CONTEST UPDATE!
Just in case you didn't get/see/read the newsletter update - we would like you to re-think the layout name. Try to ignore the cute twins (don't tell them I said they were cute - they are 8 year old boys, after all!); our name for the page - "school daze"; and just focus on the paper and the layout. We do have all the titles written down, but if you want to give it another go - please do! This is not a one-per-person contest :)

Road Trip
Hi!
As some of you know Cheryl and I closed the store Tuesday and went on a road trip. We went to Hollo's in Ohio. We made the trip in 1 day. It was rushed but we had a great time and saw lots of interesting stuff. We picked up lots of 12 x 12 card stock (color thru) and 8 1/2 x 11 card stock.
We also stopped in at Archiver's just outside of Cleveland. It's an interesting store and we saw some paper we are hoping to put in our store.
CK Convention- Cheryl and I had the opportunity to work for Stamping Station during the convention. We were pleasantly surprised to see the large variety of paper and travel stickers they carry. Their website is very hard to negotiate and we rarely find what we want. We will soon becarrying their double sided adhesive paper and glitter/bead combo.
