Today I'm sharing the two layouts we'll be making Saturday during the Allison Davis free sketch sessions. Normally, I take one of Allison's layouts and create a computer sketch for the session. Since we're celebrating the third anniversary of our sketches during April and May, we're shaking things up just a bit.

This time, Allison designed two layouts using the same set of papers, so you'll be getting twice the bang for your buck...and in addition, we're offering 50% off the papers for those who attend, and Allison has designed stitching templates that will be included, free (and she has even provided an easier verson of the "Happy" title for the stitching impaired)! And if this offer isn't good enough already, the embroidery floss and buttons are on the house as well! Your cost for both layouts? About $2.75! Do we know how to celebrate, or what?

I'll also mention one other difference. We typically don't choose pink for sketch sessions, because it's a limiting color for some people with lots of guys in their lives, but every once in a while, you just have to think pink! It just seemed like the springy thing to do, and the sketch sessions always come with the option to choose other papers if you would like to.

To sign up for one of the sessions offered at 10, 11:30, 1 or 2:30, just give us a call at 417-886-0440.

• Especially for our "long-distance" fans/customers:
Here's a new proposal, based on the number of requests we've had in the past few days from long-distance fans of Scrapbook Generation. We already ship the sketch sessions and Super-Savers to several people who are in our kit clubs and are already getting a shipment each month. We're now going to provide this plan for others. You can sign up to receive all materials for the Super-Saver, basic sketch, and Allison Davis sketch and have them automatically shipped to you for $20 per month plus $2.99 shipping. (This breaks down to $10 for the Super-Saver, $5 for the basic sketch, and $5 for the Allison Davis sketch. And since we're talking about five layouts in a "normal" month, that's a pretty awesome deal!) Just give us a call (or email us at scrapbookgen@sbcglobal.net or stacey@scrapbookgeneration.com) if you are interested. Payment would be by automatic billing on the first of each month.
