Kits are in the MAIL!

So all you ladies get ready to PLAY!!  The kits were all mailed out yesterday except for the Int'l. ones.  Let me know when you get your kits safe and sound!  And, I LOVE sharing what YOU do with my kits, so send me pictures when your done!

I forgot to show you a couple layouts from one of YOU, my blog friends...  Stacey Hansen sent me these a few weeks ago and I wanted to share!!  She used the November "Fly Home" kit:

"Spread your Wings" by Stacey,  LOVE IT!! 

and

"These are the Moments"  by Stacey Hansen.   This is just GREAT!  My FAV of the two b/c I LOVE the black polka dot paper and the huge butterfly!  WAY to GO STACEY!! 

So send me your layouts with my kits, I'd love to share them with all of you!

I took today to "kit" for the Class this Friday at Paper Tales:

and this was quite the task!  There are a TON of little doo-dads for this mini album! (i'm a sucker for embellishments, have you noticed? lol)  I hope I got them all but they are done and ready to go!  Unfortunately, this class is SOLD OUT and I won't be able to even sell any leftovers on the blog...  But those you bought the French Couture Kit back in October??  you pretty much have everything to make this class and after the class (since it's sold out) I will put up the directions on the website under class instructions!

The class that you CAN take and is still open is at  Scrapbook Oasis in Irvine on March 26 at 7pm!  So check it out and sign up, I'd LOVE to meet you there!

Here's a SNEAK of the class:

and I may have class kits left over for this one and will sell them on the blog after the class!  

So I know you haven't even received your March kits, but I have some QUESTIONS for YOU about future kits... This is a LOT of work to put together and it's best if I can prepare WAY ahead and I'm trying to plan my kits for the next few months before I leave for Europe and take the Summer off of the kit club...

I already have the April Kits almost done and would like to know when you'd like to have me REVEAL them??  I could do it during Easter Break (the 1st week in April) OR I could do them in March so you'd HAVE THEM during Easter Break and can PLAY with them!!  That is kind of my dilemma and would LOVE any input...  I don't want to make it a financial difficulty for you to buy two kits in one month, but it would be nice to have these BEAUTIFUL Spring Kits to play with during your Spring Break??

So PLEASE leave a comment on here and let me know what you'd like to do!  I can REVEAL them on the 28/29th of THIS month, or wait until AFTER Easter around the 5/6th of April... Which one works best for you??

The April kits will be FEATURING...

~ Homespun Chic by Melody Ross

~ Thrift Shop by October Afternoon

~ Paper Girl by The Girl Paperie

~ Maya Road goodies

~ American Craft goodies

Can you believe it?  This kit is going to ROCK ladies!  I am SO excited about this one and the colors in all these are AMAZING! This will probably be split up into a MAIN Kit and Add-on kit b/c it would be pretty costly to have it all in one... But,  I have a theme that runs through the whole thing and it is centered around the 1950's with VINTAGE women images and TYPEWRITER images!  and I found some GREAT things on Etsy... AGAIN!  Want to see?

some dainty little flowers...

Typewriter charms!  oh man, these are CUTE!

More flowers, but these are glass ones!

and this is a handmade stamp!  I am going to put this on something special for everyone!!

I have LOTS more (like some GREAT digital images) but I'll save those for later...

Oh, for April I'm doing my next ONLINE CLASS!!  I'm excited about this one too and I'll share a little Sneak Peak on that in a few days!  You have only a few days left to sign up for the 1st Online Class, March 15th, so make sure if you haven't to sign up here before the end of the day on the 12th!!

Well, I better go start making dinner... the kids are rumaging through the pantry :)- 

Have a GREAT day and leave a comment on THIS POST about the April kits and I'll make a decision by Friday...

In fact, I'll even turn this into a RAK!  HOw about THAT??!!  I'll pick a winner from all the comments and they will receive a FREE Add-on kit from the April kits!  Sound cool?

I'll announce the winner on Friday!

ONe last thing, I just remembered... I don't think I showed you this layout by Melanie S. from the March Kit:

So cute huh?!  Did you notice the chandelier?  She cut it out of one of the tags that is on the digital image sheet in the kit!!

take care,

Laura

Hey Laura - haven't had much time for scrapping lately or for dropping by much, but I just wanted to let you know I received my issue of "Create: Mini Albums" in the mail today, and whose creation is on the cover??? Why, yours of course! Congratulations on another publication! Your stuff is always amazing, and I'm always proud to say that I "know" you! You are awesome - keep up the great work!

More of a question than a comment-but-will there be a kit for the April online class? Any chance we can get a sneak peek if there is? I need something to look forward to.

[Melissa Sauls]

I'm actually a new follower to your blog but that April kit sounds super duper YUMMY!! I say, the sooner the better! :)

[Gladys]

Oh Laura, I would love it either way :) It's just great having your kits again so if it is better for you whichever way you prefer, I am more than happy just to get them!

[Diana]

The April kit sounds extremely fun and pretty, I would say after Easter but if you sell them the end of March I'll try to get it anyway :)
Have a great day
=Di

[AnnaMarie]

My March kit arrived just now - woo-hoo! :) And I would love to be able to play with the April kit *sooner* rather than later - it sounds awesome!! :) I'm an immediate gratification kinda gal LOL! ;)

[Jena Baker]

Revealing the April kit in March is a defnitie MUST>

Thanks to Theresa from VA I am going to get the
Create: Mini Albums, I had forgotten that you were the Cover Girl.
I am really looking forward to the April kit reveal. I would love it anytime. Since AnnaMarie got hers today, I am anxious to get home and see if mine came, the online class kit should come at the same time. It will be Christmas in my mailbox.

OMGosh...received my LOADED kit today!!!! (PA)
Super fast shipping. I LOVE everything...the Prima pp's, flowers, Pearls and the bag of goodies......be still my heart.

I'm not sleeping tonight just going to scrap the night away!!

Once again Laura you have out done yourself! btw my little postcard is soooo precious. I like to think about the people that wrote them and what life was like back in the early 1900's.

omgoodness!!! i am loving all your fun finds!!! the typewriter charm is too cute and i can't wait to see what you do with that LOVER-LY stamp!!!!! awesome!!!!

[Ruth Ann Landry]

Laura, my kit came today...my first! and wowsers! I am super happy with the contents and am anxious to go "play" with it. This may be a little challenging for me as I am just getting started with the shabby chic/vintagy look. I've always been a linear, clean, classic scrapper, but after seeing your work and your product line I wanted to "change it up"....As for the April kit....I say, the sooner the better!!!

[katt]

I got my kit yesterday and had so much fun playing with it till the weee hrs of the morning :)I would love to get the April kit sooner, it definately sounds like another must have. Then again all your kits are, i'm so glad they're back!

[CMLewis]

I just got my kits came today, both the March and the online class. I am thrilled with both and have oodles of ideas for the March kit, a birthday gift for my sister and a LO of my girls. Now to work-out and get home and get started...
