The workshops for the Where To Next collection starts tonight. For $40 there's an access only option for the classwork for people who bought the collection elsewhere. Would it be worth it to sign up even when I didn't buy everything? I have the paper pads, most of the papers, and more than half of the embellishments but no stencils, stamps, mixed media items. For full disclosure, I am kind of open to adding to my stash.  Thanks! |

Have you watched her YouTube videos? She has a lot and they are each pretty long. She really focuses a lot on mixed media. I haven't taken a class from her though, so I can't speak to your actual question. If you do end up taking it, let us know how you like it.

Vicki's weekend classes are really worth it - Access only will cost you about $30 US. She puts a lot in them. She usually doesn't do much mixed media in the album portion and on the layout pages she may use some stencils and ink on backgrounds. She will also have a Friday night card class - this is where she uses the most mixed media, but again usually just stamps, ink and stencils.
Two great things - there are full written instructions and a Facebook group. And the whole event is recorded so you can skip the parts that don't interest you or replay the parts you missed.
IMHO - I think if you like the product its worth signing up for access only so you can see how she uses the product.

I haven't taken any of her paid workshops, but I used to join her lives on Friday nights. I stopped attending because there was way too much chit-chat and singing. I really didn't get much out of them, but maybe her actual workshops and classes are different.

Just wondering, did you decide to join? I'm thinking about it, too I did sign up! I had to order a few things to round out the kit to make everything which includes 10 12x12 layouts, a 70 page 6x8 album, 2-3 cards this weekend. Then there's a bonus class next month using extras. I am really hoping it's here by the weekend but it's not a big deal if it isn't - I can catch it on replay. She posted a prep video last Wednesday which I watched yesterday. I did what I could while I wait for my order and it really made me excited for what we're going to make. Her instructions were clear and I was able to keep up with her. She was a little chatty but focused. She didn't interact too much with people in the chat but she made it sound like not too many people were there but she did watch for questions. My only regret is that I chose a travel line workshop. Our vacations have mostly been to Florida (combo visit to my mother then to Disney or Universal) for the past couple of years so there's not much documenting. Although I have ideas to make it work for multiple trips/outings. I'll see how it comes together. Assuming I'll enjoy the process and the projects, I would sign up for the full workshop with supplies in the future as it's quite a deal. |

I'm really interested to hear how the workshop goes and if you like the projects. |
