Have you ever "attended" an online crafting event? I have taken a lot of online classes and small group sessions over the years, which have all been such fun, and a really great learning experience for crafters of any level. But this weekend's event was JAM PACKED, let me tell you! A full two days of creating and learning and sharing and just having so much fun with over 750 - that is NOT a typo!-750-plus other crafters all online together. Let me just say, phe-nom-en-AL!!!
Pinkfresh Studio is a fairly new company to my craft stash but you will certainly be seeing a lot of their products on my blog to come. This weekend's event was so amazing I honestly don't know how they are going to top it when they plan the next one. LOL! This was their first such event and everyone went above and beyond to make it special. It seemed as though they'd all done this a hundred times before. The teachers were really great and the projects were easy to complete, and modify if you wished to do so, and the products included in our event packages are all beautiful, as you can see by the projects I've shared in this post. Now, keep in mind, these are so new they are not currently available for purchase. BUT, the good news is, they WILL be available in the next release or two, so watch for them. Totally worth every penny.
If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to shoot me an email. You can use the link in the sidebar if you don't have it elsewhere (Facebook, Scrapendipity Crafters group, Instagram, etc.) but please if you do use that link, remember to include your email address in your message so that I can reply. All right, let's get to the fun stuff, shall we!
Poor Pinkfresh had to deal with shipper issues and might I say they handled everyone's freak-outs better than I would have, I'm pretty sure. The infamous FedEx box that kept us all on pins and needles till the last minute. It's here, it's here!! CHECK ✅
CHECK ✅
Craft cart stocked, pre-class homework prep completed, each class contents in its own envelope. See those spray bottles? Genius. One is water (for keeping my stamp cleaning cloth damp) and one is rubbing alcohol* (70% is perfect for cleaning stencils; wipe off ink with a cloth, dries instantly). Ready to begin. (Seriously, folks, I live for this stuff. I love being organized!) CHECK ✅
Page protectors make it so easy to make temporary notes or check things off with a dry erase pen, then simply spray and wipe off.
BigShot and... um....extended cutting plate in three pieces??? Even though it broke twice, it still left me with a piece the size of a regular plate, so that was only a minor setback. It was all good. ✅
All right then, that's enough of that. Let's get to the projects already. :)
