BasicGrey Page of the Month 2011

PAGE OF THE MONTH PROGRAM 2011

DEC 31st: I have been in discussions with BasicGrey staff this week, and they have not yet finalized the details about this upcoming year's POTM program.

As we would not want to give you any information prematurely, we have not released any details about the upcoming year, as Basic Grey has not yet released any information.

If you are interested in being on our list for the upcoming year's POTM program, please let us know. Those who get their names into us will get the first chance! IF you would like to know about this past year's program, you can see what it included from our past post on Jan 25, 2010

(just click on the date which has a link to the post).

This past year was a great success, and it will be interesting to see if there are any changes to the 2011 program. I can't wait to get the FREE album in Feb from this past year's program!

Hope you will join us for another successful year!

The cards each month will have a variety of greetings: some generic and some seasonal.

Each month there will be different complimentary class dates offered for you to choose from. Don’t worry if you can’t make it to either date, as you will receive printed instructions with FULL-COLOUR images of each of the cards and easy step-by-step instructions to create each card.

Basic Grey Page of the Month Layout Program

The Basic Grey Page of the Month Program will begin this week with complimentary classes on Thursday evening from 6-8pm and Saturday from 1-3pm.

Pictured here is the 1st layout designed by Basic Grey designer Vicki Boutin.

After putting all of the kits together you will be happy to know that you will also be going home with lots of extra product. When taking a Basic Grey kit class, if an embellishment has been used in the layout, you not only get the exact embellishments they used, but you get the ENTIRE package! On this layout for example they used 4 pieces from the Paper Pieces package. With 17 pieces in a package, that's quite a number of extra pieces. An additional bonus here is that you can choose what paper pieces YOU want on your own layout. So look at this layout a bit closer. With the kit you get 2 sheets of 5 different patterned papers. I'll let you figure it out, but that's a fair bit of extra paper that you will also go home with! Pictured to the right are only some of the kits that I was organizing! Note the full packages of clips, paper pieces and instruction sheet!

If this program interests you, we still have a few spaces left. Anyone signing up by Saturday March 27th will also get the other incentives that Basic Grey offers as well as our own special incentive for you! Don't hesitate to contact us for more info! 250-590-1266

Additional Spaces added to Basic Grey POTM Program!

UPDATE: Of the 12 extra kits that we ordered, there are only 6 spaces left!!

We have ordered a few more kits with Basic Grey, therefore we have added a few more spaces. Spaces are going quickly! If this is a monthly program that you have been thinking about, register ASAP.

We hope that you will be able to join in the fun that MANY of you have already registered for!
