I just tried buying the second set of cubes - it's on sale for $78.12 (down from regular price of $82) - and with the discount code (15%)/shipping ($12.50)/sales tax (6%) it costs $83.27! Nothing is "cheap" anymore. I am the one that will put $15 worth of product in my cart to reach free shipping at $100 instead of paying $12.50 for shipping.

Yes, twillerbee , I too am very pleased with the quality of the album. I pretty much love everything Pinkfresh does! Question, did you receive ‘event swag’ in your box? NO I did not. But their description did not say that there would be a swag. I was not expecting it considering this one is a smaller event. Sorry for the confusion. My original description included ‘some really fantastic swag’ and when I look at the description now it is no longer there.

I’ve been full into fall cars mode the last week or two, and pulled out the mushrooms set from the February 2023 event today. Girls! Go to the PF website, since they released the set, there is a lot of gorgeous inspiration there. www.pinkfreshstudio.com/products/the-magic-is-in-you-stencil?_pos=2&_sid=03c853f44&_ss=rI made the stencil set 3X today and plan to mix and match them into 3 cards. Anyhow they are heavily inspired by the PF designers at the link above. I’m going to attempt adding white highlights to these. Everything crossed that I don’t totally mess them up. I am a little scared of adding highlights! If you play, I hope you’ll share too! Beautiful! Are you adding white highlights with a pen or the tiny ‘star and circle’ dies we received?

Yes, azcrafty, did you see the Pinkfresh response to my question about glitter cardstock in the FB group? I can't find the question or the response.... Shakti, sorry it was buried in the comments of the post with the event prep pdf. Pinkfresh replied that “we have included glitter cardstock sheets (white) in the kit. This is Pinkfresh Studio branded glitter cardstock.”

I thought it was a watercolor-type paper and was planning to use another watercolor paper. Is it not? Its very smooth and feels like you need to use less water to blend. I use it with my zig markers, it makes a difference for me. I'll send you some so you can try it. I bought them at Michael's years ago when they had good deals, buy 1 and get 2 free ..kinda deals. azcrafty Do you think Bristol is similar to Tim Holtz White Heavystock?

I like it. I am also signed up for her Sugarplum Wishes weekend in Colorado in November. I live locally so it is an easy yes for me to attend her event weekends.

Anyone watching Meghann and Catherine at Creativation? Catherine has mentioned there will be a new company in the Fall event. I am wondering if it will be Picket Fence Studios? They did a live from Nicole’s booth.

I am in. I have not done a Papercrafting event for a year due to the fact the main classes included a mini album. I love mini albums, but only when I have pictures to put in it. So I was excited to see the April event focused on layouts. I am okay that the schedule shows mini albums. Loving the sneaks! Meghann Andrew using SS Flea Market is my favorite so far.

I'm a die hard Crop & Create virtual papercrafting event devotee, though you mentioned you already know about them. I second the recommendation for the Pinkfresh events. You get a TON of product. All of it is brand new, hasn't hit stores yet, and some of it remains exclusive to the event. The teachers are from all over the world, and so they have ideas that seem really fresh and unique to me. Getting yourself on the email lists is a great idea, but don't be afraid to ask to join the wait list for sold out events. I have gotten into two different events from the waitlist, one at the absolute last minute. I third agree about Pinkfresh. Brand new, not released yet product. International teachers. I am fairly certain they will re-open registration for the May event. Make sure you are on their email list and follow them on socials. Check out their website, it gives you an idea about what will be included. www.pinkfreshstudio.com/collections/create-connect-event/products/create-connect-scrapbook-event-for-usa-customers

Ok, now that we’re almost ready to begin, I’ve been waiting to see if anyone else brought this up. Is anyone else amused by the sentiment for the mushrooms cards? “The magic is in you.” I mean, mushrooms and magic??? All I can Think of is magic mushrooms (yes I’m a child of the 60’s and 70’s 😁 And also, I can’t imagine sending a card that says “the magic is in you.” It’s just not a phrase I would ever use to describe another person. So, is it just me? It’s ok if it is, but I need to know if I’m borderline nuts! It is not just you. When I saw the sneaks I was not impressed with the mushrooms. And then I stated ink blending them and now I really like them. Very different than all the florals. I too am not liking The Magic Is In You sentiment, but we have so many other choice in the stamps and pre made sentiment pack. Excited for all the classes today!

Yeah, it looks really fun! Nice to see something a bit different with the postage stamps using die cuts (I think that's what it is). And a different color palette! Yes, the color palette. I emailed Cathy and Greg (C9) in the past about the similar past color palettes. Given that we have received C9 mini ink cubs with past kits it would be nice to receive different colors. I never heard back from either of them, so I was thankful when we got this sneak.

I really enjoyed mine, although there were definitely a few things that aren’t my style. I did a YouTube video showing it all and am going to make projects with everything in a new series, too. youtu.be/gLUmB56vkroThank you for sharing. I look forward to what you will create with the items.

Mine looks well stocked on everything except Maggie Holmes papers (just one design there). My store is north of Denver, and I found all the lines, many embellishments, but also only one sheet of the Maggie line. Online my store showed Paige’s line at 69 cents a sheet and Vicki’s at 99 cents a sheet, but in store all rang up at 10 for $2.00. I am attending Paige’s Splendid Event in late July so I wanted to get more patterned paper to turn her layouts into 2 page spreads. JoAnn’s had papers 1-13 in the store.

Or do you have any others planned for this summer? Any crops, classes, projects, or retreats? I loved setting aside a good amount of time to scrap over insd weekend. I'm hoping to do it again at the end of June. Crafty DestinationsI thought the Set Sail & Sticker event sounded fun and just wanted to find out if anyone here can give us a review. I'm not sure if it's strictly scrapbooking or if there are other crafty things happening. Elsabelle, I have been a ‘Cutie’ since the beginning. I did the first Quarantine Stash Bash Cruise back in 2020 and had the most fun with the virtual event. Paula makes it feel like an actual cruise. I would not say it is scrapbooking, but I have created a TN for each cruise. It is all printables and fun games and paper craft workshops all virtual.

I had a wrong stamp sent and received a refund. And for the first time I filed a dispute for an entire order of 6 items. I received a full refund.

I wonder which of these will show up at Joanns? The ad in the Spring 2022 issue of Scrapbook & Cards magazine from AC shows: Splendid by Paige, Sun Chaser by Heidi, Round Trip by Maggie, Beautiful Things and Willow & Sage by Bo Bunny, Live & Let Grow by Jen and Sweet Rush by Vicki coming soon to select Joann stores.

We got our boxes today. So many pretties! I went through the book. I'm loving some of the classes. Does the book has pictures and instructions for the mini classes on Friday? In the past some of the lunch and learns would post a pdf in the guides.

If I know I will be die cutting a ‘fussy’ word I have double sided adhesive to the paper first. It may take one or two more passes thru my gemini but it is worth it when I can peel and stick the word on my project.

If you are interested I would recommend being on a waitlist. I received an email on Friday that I was off the waitlist for the June Create & Inspire event. Do they still send you the supplies if you get in late? Yes, my box should arrive in Colorado next week, plenty of time before the June 4-6 event.

After reading through the thread I'm signing up for the next one for sure. This sounds like one of the better online events out there. Hopefully they'll still keep doing online after everything goes semi-back to normal. If you are interested I would recommend being on a waitlist. I received an email on Friday that I was off the waitlist for the June Create & Inspire event.
