Janet Hopkins’ photo requirements are optional and not required to finish the project. If you are the type of person who needs the pictures in the project before you leave class in order to feel like it is DONE… please check out the photo requirements list. If you are okay with waiting until you get home… you get to skip your homework assignment. Totally up to you! No stressing allowed… this is your CREATIVE ESCAPE.

Don’t miss out on the Treasure Hunt Wednesday and Thursday around the  hotel grounds. It is a great chance to take silly photos you will  ‘treasure’ later … and enter for the chance to win scrapbook prizes from Oriental Trading Company! Download your map now or bring the map that came in your Welcome Box. Shiver me timbers. This is going to be fun!

Download the treasure map here.

Registration is open from noon to 5 p.m. There is no hurry, so plan your day for fun and visit us when you are ready. Remember to locate the Treasure Chests hidden around the hotel for a chance to win fun
scrapbook prizes.

After registration, visit Technique Boutique to learn a few of the tricks you will need during class, make a few projects, and pick up a few supplies for your tool box. Each person is issued a punch card during registration; bring it along to TB and start gathering your loot. There is enough for everyone… no matter when you arrive.

It takes about an hour to complete TB, so as long as you arrive before 4 p.m you should have plenty of time to finish before the opening presentation with Doug and Heidi starts at 5:30 p.m.

Teachers will be on hand to show off their favorite projects during the Trunk Show from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. This is a fun time to meet the teachers, talk about their project and take a photo.

Janet has designed a great project for you to do, but you will need to get some pictures together first. Here is a list for you: For the inner pages you will need (2) 5x 7 vertical trimmed to 4.75 x 7 to fit into a couple of mini sheet protectors and (1) 4 x 5 vertical with all four corners rounded. There will be a stack of photos that all go together…one of each in this order from top to bottom: 4 x 6 vertical, 4 x 6 vertical, 6 x 4 horizontal, 5 x 7 vertical, 7 x 5 horizontal, 5 x 7 vertical, 5 x 7 vertical, 4 x 6 vertical with a 1/4″ white border and a 5 x 7 vertical. Look at the images to get an idea of the types of photos you will need to gather.

You have got to have a white opaque pen for her class! Ooops…we almost forgot to tell you that! Kelly reminded us that it is very important! (She loves the Uniball Signo, by the way!)

Tim Holtz is one-of-a-kind. His design style is unique, his product is top-of-line, and best of all his teaching is educational and fun. Who doesn’t want to be his best friend? Tim is sponsoring part of his class with his Idea-ology line as well as ink and other fabulous mediums from Ranger.

Here is a little sneak peak of some of the unbelievable products you will be using.

Janet Hopkins has a fun homework assignment for you to play with before you arrive. Download it here Follow her instructions as soon as you get the supplies. You might need to be patient if they haven’t arrived at your door via FEDEX. When you are all done, remember this important tip… BRING IT WITH YOU!

Are you wondering if there is going to be glitter? Yes, there is! Now it is up to you to guess which project involves this sparkly fair dust… you might be surprised! Show up September 4-6, to discover for yourself.

We are honored to have Kolette Hall joining us at the event along with her husband, Jason Hall. Kolette and Jason have been working together to incorporate Jason’s uplifting keynote message into Kolette’s motivating teaching project. This is going to be a great combo!
