Scrap Etc Event 2007

Anne and I went to the Scrap Etc Event this year! I actually won free admission for myself and bring a friend! I was so excited - never won anything in my life!!! Anne and I stayed at the Wynfrey and had so much fun. I don't even know where to begin. Our first class was with Stacy Julian - this class was amazing and so inspiring!!! I had to go out and buy her book and have her sign it for my second class with her. She was so much fun, we danced around the table to Don't Worry Be Happy, we played with out stapler and learned to be happy! Our second class was just as good, kinda pushed me outside of my comfort zone as far as making a 6x6 album in an hour! I was freaking out!! We had a class with Robin Johnson from Memory Dock - yet another great class. We had two classes with her as well. My favorite was learning about the Memory Dock and how it can keep you organized. Robin was so sweet, and she shared some really amazing stores with us. We also made a book in Kristina Contes class- fun little book. Jenni Bowlin did a class and I just loved it. She even made sure she took the time to come around to everyones table to visit with them. She just started her own line of products so we got to use some of them in our class. In Heather Preckel's class we did a clip board on all about me, super cute! I think it would make great teacher gifts and you could put all the students pictures on the envelopes. Alison Tyler Jones did a class on photograph - this was a MUST HAVE CLASS! She did an awesome job and talk about funny! This girl is hilarious, she had us laughing the whole time. Some of her photos were just amazing. I wish I lived in her area and could have her take some family photos of my family. Friday night was the RAVE - wow! It was cool, funky and almost like you were in a dance club with music going and lights. There were several make and take booths, even a oxygen bar - Anne and I sat there trying out several flavors. I think I would go with the basic - plain oxygen. There was even a photo booth. Anne and I didn't try it out until the last day and it's probably a good thing because we ended up going in there five times! I will scan the photos and share. Monique put on an amazing event and you can tell she did it all from the heart for her friends. I couldn't of asked for a better event than this one and all the girls who volunteered and helped her did an awesome job as well.

The Scrap Etc Event was amazing and I feel really lame not telling you more about it but I am still trying to play catch up. Next year I will remember to document each day, so I don't have to try and write it all down now. So if you are considering going next year - IT IS WELL WORTH IT!!
