2nd to last reminder..."Genealogy 101"

Gals,

I'm going to bug you, plain and simple. Tomorrow evening (April 13th 7:00PM) is our April Permian Basin Jewels (PB&J) Paper Crafters meeting. Our subject: Genealogy 101. What does genealogy have to do with paper crafting? Well if you do any scrapbooks of family members that have already passed on you are doing archival scrapbooking. Archival scrapbooking can be dramatically enhanced with a touch of knowledge about genealogy.

It can be downright boring to have an album, even a scrapbook without a clue to who is who and who did what. Add some journaling and even some bits a pieces you've found while looking for your ancestor's life history and you've got a best seller.

Beverly Wait from the Midland Genealogical Society will be our guest speaker. She will be presenting "Genealogy 101" and will even have handouts so you can take your new found knowledge and actually apply it to your scrapbooking.

I'm asking all you gals who attend to bring a dozen cookies. Barnes and Noble has a wonderful coffee cafe and you can get either a cup of tea, coffee or a cold beverage to quench your thirst. This is our way of supporting them as they offer free meeting space to us.

I have a bunch of goodies for our door prizes and want to invite all of you to come, bring friends and make this an unforgettable meeting.
