Registered: 11 Feb : 21:07 Reply to this | Kathi here's what Peggy said: Newbies, listen to your Swirly Savage Queen. We'll be supplied with so many goodies at Camp. Just bring your basic tools, some inks and sprays and not much else. You WILL need an empty suitcase; just pack your things in one and stuff that into a larger one. Around May or so, we will start discussing who's bringing what in regards to dies and punches. |

Registered: 09 Feb : 16:32 Reply to this | Yes and no, most of us will bring PP. I make kits from my LO's because I can't think in a crop situation and it makes packing much, much easier. There WILL be lots of goodies, probably a group project of some kind. So yes you need to bring something to work on, just not your whole scrap room. But you Will need a second suitcase. The first camp I shipped my clothes home and it cost me $60.00; because the goodies had to go home with me. We have to have our priorities straight..right This is my 4th camp and I will be bringing some PP |

 Registered: 06 Jul : 05:01 Reply to this | This sounds absolutely incredible. I think I should book a space for next year and work my way towards it. Any of you ladies have husbands that would be keen on going on a Bike Tour at the same time? My dh has a Harley here and although he wouldnt be able to take that with (cos we are in South Africa!) he could perhaps hire one and he could go on a Bike Tour whilst I am scrapping? Hmmmm sounds like a good plan.......  |
