My last post showed you a sample album that I'd made with the Elegant Soiree Designer Series Paper. Here's a sample I made with the Ice Cream Parlor DSP and Quick Accents Pack from Sale-A-Bration.
I knew I was going to be doing an album for a fundraiser so, to keep my costs low, I used the Sale-A-Bration benefits that I earned to stock up for the fundraiser so as to minimize my costs. This paper is so fun and full-of-life (like my kids) that I knew it would make a great option. Although this sample would probably look best for pictures with girls, you probably could just choose the sides of the paper that were less girly. The base cardstock is Marina Mist, which is a blue and so will go for either sex. Those who select this option for their album get the added bonus of being able to add Quick Accents (self-adhesive, cardstock-weight die cuts that coordinate with the paper).
I do not have a sample album made with Greenhouse Gala, but here's a look at the Designer Series Paper that make up that collection. The colors are Pear Pizzazz, Daffodil Delight, Chocolate Chip, Real Red, Pumpkin Pie and Baja Breeze. This collection was a HUGE hit at the Stampin' Up! convention when it was unveiled last summer.
The autism fundraiser is on Saturday, April 30th at Curtis Lake Church in Sanford. I can accommodate up to 25 people comfortably in each of the time slots (9am and 11am). The cost is $20, with $15 of that going directly to benefit My Place/My Friends. My son has been attending My Place for years and it is a huge benefit to him AND to us as his parents. The thought of adding the My Friends initiative (a guided opportunity for social interaction...what kids on the spectrum desperately need) is so exciting to me.
Don't forget, those who sign up and pay by April 23rd will be earn a bonus project that features the Big Shot! AND, there will be a prize drawing for all participants for $100 worth of Stampin' Up! goodies, donated by Stampin' Up!. If you get a friend who is not currently in my database to join you, your name will be entered into another drawing for $100 worth of Stampin' Up! products!
If you have a special woman in your life, this album would make a wonderful gift for Mother's Day or even "just because". All supplies except basic adhesive are included.
