I got a notice that my shipping label has been created! Anyone else? I know a number of us are doing this one mid-November.
I didn't see a thread for the scrapbooking one, which I believe, is the weekend of November 4th.

I haven't received a notice yet but I did see their post on Facebook with all the boxes. I'm getting excited!! I have to miss Day 1 (Friday) as I'll be traveling for work but I hope to have everything prepped so I can join in for Saturday & maybe go back and do Friday on Sunday

I’ve got my notice. UPS has received the info but not the package yet. 7 pounds of goodies will soon be on their way!
This is my first holiday event. I can’t wait.

Got my notice too and am really looking forward to this one. I'm also in the paper crafting one, and am working on getting pictures together and doing the prep work. I am team peek for the paper crafting one - I knew I would accomplish more in the long run if I had a bunch of photos ready to go, so I've been doing a lot of picture printing.
As for the holiday one - I'm team NO peek all the way! I just really want to have a fun time with this one, and that's part of the fun for me.
I'm just glad I'm able to do these two weekends. Card making was a bust for me, but the past two weeks I've had three spinal injections and I feel like a different person! I am so happy to be almost completely out of pain after 3 very long months. I'm still going to take things a bit slowly, but I'll get a heck of a lot more done than I was able to do for card making.

No notice here yet, but they usually get US boxes shipped first I think. Loved the sneak of the boxes piled ready for shipping--they look pretty big!

I was team no peek last year for the papercrafting event. This year I peeked at the paper crafting because I was silly and thought the holiday album would be in there. Duh. Totally blaming the need for brain surgery on that one. I’ll be team peek for the holiday box. When I find the supplies for the holiday album, I’ll be team rip it open for that bag especially. Im dying to see what’s in it so I can order additional supplies if I feel like I’ll need some.
I just checked my tracking number. It should be here Thursday!! 🤩

I wanted to do this but found out about it too late. I’ll live vicariously through all of you. Love seeing the excitement here!

People have already received their boxes! They look deeper than they were last year. Bigger is better, right?
ETA: I checked my tracking - no delivery date yet. 😫

I received my box yesterday. It's my first holiday event, I've done the scrapbooking and card events before, though. I love the SugarPlum Wishes paper, so bright and festive. I won't say more so everyone can be surprised, but I am super psyched for Christmas (even though I'm still working on Halloween projects!).

2nd peak is up. I am a much bigger fan of this than I was of the first one, which seemed to have a LOT of pink.

It’s here! It just arrived five minutes ago. I came on to post and got distracted. I’ve got to pack for my trip tomorrow and then I’m making peeks…except for the holiday album. I’m ripping that sucker open!

Keeping in mind that I’m team no peek on the holiday event, can you tell me if there is a lot of homework without giving too much away? I’m reading on Facebook that people are saying there’s a lot of prep work. Not that I mind, I just have to fit this in with the papercrafting one too!

I’m not taking the class but I really love that snowman. Do they get new releases and use them for the classes?

I’m reading on Facebook that people are saying there’s a lot of prep work. Not that I mind, I just have to fit this in with the papercrafting one too! I just glanced at the book - the Virginia Nebel and the Jess Forster classes have quite a bit of paper cutting to do. I'm not sure how long it would take, but someone on Facebook said two hours!

MDscrapaholic - thanks for confirming the homework. Looks like I’ll need to clear the weekend after the unboxing to get homework done.

I had not seen a shipping notice, but when I checked the mail, my SCT box was there! They sent it Canada Post. Have done a quick flip through of the box contents, and took a few minutes to browse through the book. So much fun in one package!
I am really excited about the Gina K projects and am so tempted to pack those stamps and dies to take with me to the LSS crop this upcoming weekend. But I will behave myself and not let anyone see the projects until after the event.
The other packages that look fun are the ski lodge stuff--such pretty colours--and the Doodlebug--so cute! Although I know I will not follow through with a full DD, I may give that mini album to my dgs to document his Christmas adventures after the holidays are over.

I just saw in the Guides that there is a pre-recorded video for Virginia Nebel's class. She has quite a bit of homework.

I’m not participating but am getting excited for y’all as I see that your boxes have come in. Does that count?
