This past weekend would have been the date for my annual October weekend retreat. I’ve been hosting weekend retreats for 18 years now, and we typically fill up my hotel space with 50 croppers three times a year. Due to the pandemic, I replaced this year’s October retreat with a virtual event. Although we missed being together in person, the virtual option is a good substitute that has allowed others from places far and wide to also participate. During our Scrap & Chat sessions on Zoom, we were able to visit and meet 68 croppers from all over the U.S., Canada, Australia and New Zealand!

I taught page classes for 6 original layouts that I created with the Croptoberfest Bundle from Creative Memories, and Kim Scott with Forever, shared instructional videos on how to create my layouts digitally. I also shared an additional Page Class, Demonstration Videos, Sketch Challenges, Scrap & Chat Sessions, Door Prizes, a sale of discounted and discontinued products, and a few games. We had such a fun time, and I hope that you’ll consider joining us for my next virtual event. (Stay tuned.)

Below are photos of the original layouts that I created. I’m offering access to the instructional videos and handouts on how to create these layouts for a $15 fee. With the fee, you’ll receive access to a private Facebook group that contains the page class videos, demonstration videos and an instructional handout for each layout. With these materials, you’ll be able to create the layouts at your leisure. During the recorded page classes, I also share tips and techniques and demonstrate how to use Creative Memories tools.

If you’re a digital scrapbooker or would like to learn how to scrapbook digitally, Kim Scott, will be holding classes that include instructions on how to create my layouts digitally. Please contact me if you are interested in those, and I will connect you with Kim.

I used almost every piece of paper, cardstock, stickers and embellishments that are included in the exclusive Croptoberfest Bundle from Creative Memories to create these layouts. You will only have a few small pieces leftover.

(Unfortunately these materials are now sold out. However, you can use any other materials that you have to create the layouts.)

To purchase access the instructional videos and handouts on how to create these layouts, please pay the $15 fee using my Pay Pal link. This is a great opportunity to participate in a personal scrapbooking class with me!

Thanks so much for your interest in my layouts! Have a scrappy week!
