Event guide book picture is up. The one sneak we haven't seen is the pink and main. The little ice cream probably goes with that. Im not sure if Im going to like it. I loved their spring mini class and loved it that she showed us a bunch of different examples with a small set. I guess I should wait and see....

I think that Crop and Create buys the products at cost or a small markup and the brands do the classes for free in return. Any expenses the individual companies incur can be expensed as advertising & marketing. This is what I think, too.

If so, then that's a thumbs up for me.

I wonder what the die behind the sunflowers in the Lawn Fawn picture is? Any guesses? (I'm no good at figuring these things out lol)

Like this one except with dots instead of stitching. www.lawnfawn.com/products/stitched-scalloped-rectangle-frames

Agree. Maybe we'll get a scalloped and straight edge one. Love the guessing game 🙂

Yes! How did I not see that? That's pretty exciting as I don't have one of those but have been wanting one. Having just the one size (rather than a nested set) is good too as I usually only use the largest size in a nested set.

I don't know if the picture needed some more light or the colours are just drab but I'd want brighter ones. Looks like it's a rainbow that we're only seeing the middle of.

Boxes have been shipping since Saturday! Who else is checking their email constantly to see if they got a shipping notice?

I’m not crazy about the Pink and Main peek…those colors are not my jam. I’m sure that can be rectified by changing those up.

Pink and Main cards are a disappointment. I understand that they wanted to use a fall color pallet, but this colors are blah at best. I will come up with my own color combo.

Or not? 😳 There was a discussion about that on the forum, and if I recall correctly, Catherine said some items that are included in the box aren’t listed, and/or things that aren’t included aren’t always listed on the list of things to buy because they’re not required. It was confusing, but in this case flocking isn’t a product I’d use so it didn’t matter. (BTW, I decided not to attend, and the fee refunded, although I’d offered my space for them to give to someone who otherwise couldn’t afford to go.)

I thought I read Pink and Main will use three colors of flock. One is included. The others are optional or you could use glitter.

It doesn’t say on the supply list but in the discussion she said one would be in the box.
