Cardmaking Cruise Alaska Aug 2014

HelloI just replied to an older thread from a stamper who was interesting in going on a Cardmaking Cruise.

I wanted to let people know about a fun Alaskan cruise that sails round trip from Vancouver Canada on August 17, 2014.

There is a cardmaking group on this cruise called Sailing with Scissors.

The website is Sailing with Scissors...A Cardmaker's Cruise

There are free make n' takes, daily card technique newsletters, treasure hunt, wood mount game, card swap, goody bags, and prizes for everyone.

All we bring is our adhesives and scissors.

Each person in the group has to buy a minimum of two classes ($35 each) to join in all the free events.

So, for $70 above your cruise costs, you can join this fun group. The $70 covers the costs of the goody bags, make n' take materials and some of the prizes (the other prizes are donated).

In other scrapbook cruises, you pay quite a lot extra in order to pay the cruise fare of the famous cardmaker.

This isn't a money making business thing. It 's just a bunch of cardmakers having fun.

Thanks

I went on a Sailing With Scissors cruise to Alaska two or three years ago, and what a blast it was! I met so many nice card makers, some of whom I still keep in touch with. The classes were excellent; I learned lots of new techniques and came home with a collection of great cards. The teacher, Jessie, was easy to follow and very creative; one thing that surprised me is how many prizes and free goodies were given out. This was my first cruise, and Sailing With Scissors added extra fun to what was a fabulous week.
