#3 Upcoming EVENTS!!!

Studies show that the joy from an "experience" lasts longer than a tangible gift so why not give an event to someone this Christmas!!  Click on the image to learn more about each of these amazing events!!

BTW... I'm teaching two different Photography Classes at the Cropaganza event in Red Deer and you can sign up for just the classes without attending the entire event!!  Give the gift of a Photography Class this Christmas :)

Hopefully this gives you some great ideas for your own wishlist this Christmas as well as ideas for the other crafters in your life :)

NEW!!! Crop-a-ganza Event!!!

How exciting is this??????!!!!!!

This coming February you have the chance to partake in a most fabulous weekend called

 "Crop-a-ganza"

taking place at the beautiful Sheraton Hotel in Red Deer on the Feb. 17-19th weekend!!

Here is the lineup of instructors coming to educate and entertain you!!

YES, that's Donna Downey's smiling face you see along with Cathie Allan, Christy Riopel, Susan Weckesser and myself!!!

I have met Donna Downey at CHA, but never had a chance to take one of  her classes, but I hear they are amazing!!  And I can speak first hand about the talent of the others instructors and can't say enough about what each one brings to the craft table!!!  As for myself, I will be teaching a brand new photography class and am so excited to have this (see below picture) as part of our venue... a full wall of natural light with such beautiful potential for photos!!

And speaking of venue... take a peek at the rooms we will be staying in...

Not only is it a FULL weekend away (3 days!), but the "Stay and Play" package includes your crop space for 3 days, hotel room for 2 nights, 4 meals and a late night hot lunch right at the hotel, a goodie bag, door prizes and a ton of fun ALL for only $290!!!  You don't ever need to leave the building!!  Thinking THIS is the perfect Christmas gift for you and/or the scrapbooker in your life!!
