Our BasicGrey 2009 “All About Me” Page-of-the-Month Program was such a huge success; we are pleased to announce that registration for the 2010 Page-of-the-Month is now open! This year’s program is essentially the same with a few improvements: instead of the “All About Me” theme, you will have different themes to choose from, with different journaling prompts, so that you can scrap about whatever you want, plus this year, only the newest Basic Grey papers and embellishments will be used.  This year’s Page-of-the-Month Program will run from March 2010 thru February 2011.  Class schedule will be the same as last year:  your choice of an evening class starting at 6pm on the 4th Tuesday of each month or a morning class starting at 10:30am on the 4th Wednesday of each month, beginning March 23rd and 24th. (Limited to 12 participants) If you would like to reserve your seat in this program, please call us at 803-791-1440.
