I know there are several of us, here, who scrapbook. Is there any interest in starting a regular get together? Anyone is welcome to join even if you've never scrapped, but really want to start.
I am a Close to My Heart consultant and we do have a group that gets together once a month at my house to scrap. It's an open crop once a month and then sometimes I put together specific workshops as well for those interested. If you want to be added to my list to receive emails about when the crops are just let me know. If it starts to get too big for my house I would have to find somewhere else, but so far it's been manageable. I hold them at night usually on a Friday or Saturday and it's just a great way to have a date on the calendar to get some projects done.
Since we do not have any real scrapbook stores in the area, it would be nice if we could have some of the various consultants at the events to show their stuff and sell things. Close to my heart, creative memories, Robin, do you have a friend who sells Memory works (is that the name)? This way..there is a good mix of styles and no one feels out of place. Good idea..bad idea??
I will check with my friend who is from Memory works. She used to rent out a HUGE room the Best Western on 41st. She would have the banquet room ALL day, and it turned out to be around $10-15 person for 8am-8pm.
It held about 20 people, you had your own table etc.

I just joined the group and am so excited. I've been hoping to find more scrappers in the area! Anyway, I would love to get together for a monthly crop. With three (four if you count my husband!) rascally boys at home, sometimes the only way to get some scrapbooking done is to do it somewhere other than home!
