I got my box Saturday and did my homework yesterday. It took me at least 5 hours to do all the homework. I don’t love all the cards but I’m excited to try the various techniques that sine of the classes have. I do enjoy the value and overall I’m happy that I signed up again

I received my box today, 1 day earlier than expected. The box is amazing and I am so glad I signed up for this event too. I love the surprise gift!
Some of the cards aren't my style but I learned after doing other events that some cards don't photograph well and look much better in person. I plan to do the homework this weekend.

I received my box today! I like the surprise gift. I don't have time today to go through the whole thing but I got the book out. I want to pick a couple of cards to do along with the instructor.
This is my second card event(and I've done several of the papercrafting) but I'm always amazed at how jam packed these boxes are!

I'm glad others are getting their boxes soon. Are we all on team peek? I want to know what you guys think about the box.
I started my homework and it's brutal. I spent a good 6 hours yesterday and am only thru 6 classes. I am changing a lot while doing the suggested homework so it's time consuming. Honey Bee is overwhelming!

I'm on Team Peek, but should I work on the PF event first? That's gonna be a little more involved, as the instructions aren't as clear for that one.

I got my box yesterday, but haven't had a chunk of time to dedicate to actually opening/looking. I plan to do it tomorrow evening, or Saturday for sure. In the Aug 17th email they said that the hw should take about 10 hours. Last year I did two or three classes a day and that worked for me (team peek). I'll do the same this year. Thanks for the tip about Honey Bee. In prior events, I had a heck of a time with those teeny tiny Spellbinders dies and all those tiny paper scraps they give (which I do appreciate! so I don't have to wrangle all those specific colors) I'll leave these two for last. |

I got my box today and opened it but have not gone through it. I have a lot going on at home with a terminally ill relative. I will probably watch most classes and just do a couple or few live classes. I have been enjoying the chat here much more then the Facebook group chat! So much drama and emotion  |

So much drama and emotion I'm sorry about your terminally ill relative, that's so difficult. I'm glad that you can find some enjoyment with the chat here and also with the cardmaking event itself. It's so important to have things to distract & look forward to. I opened my box last night and looked at all of the products. When I first opened the box I literally said "holy shit!" because I could not believe how much was in there! It's jam packed. Tonight I will sort my cardstock, then PF event homework this weekend, then C&CD homework over the next few weeks. A lot to do but it's fun stuff. I'm happy with almost every single thing I've received in both boxes. |

Considering how much I disliked the LDRS class in the spring, I was expecting the same this time. I was soooo wrong! I love everything in the kit. The sentiments are perfect and the hummingbirds are great. Such a fantastic surprise!

I picked up my 12lb box today! I had a nice chat with Catherine and Mr Sct. I hope to find time to get some of the homework done, at least in the classes I want to get done during the live. I am more of a scrapbooker so it might take me longer to do the cards

Well, I just finished unpacking my box, and I'm blown away! This is great! Lots of fun will be had doing these cards!
However, I'm missing 7 items, all from the drawstring bag. I need to find the missing items form and fill it out. Check your bags carefully!

I would be happy to send you mine then when you get yours we could trade back. Thank you, you are very kind! I think they'll arrive before classes start. I was missing a few things the first time I did this (back in 2021) and they sent them out right away. |

I'm kind of sad that Meghann Andrew isn't teaching a class. I really liked her classes with Elle's studio and SCT.

I need to find the missing items form and fill it out. Check your bags carefully! Well, DUH. I'm only missing four items. Read on Facebook about checking both ends... The OLO markers are double-inked, one on each end. So I'm not missing any of those. I am missing the four embossing powders, though. |

Any one else getting their crafty space cleared off and ready to go? I worked on mine today, just about done and will start on homework for both this and the PF/SM event.
