Jennifer (right) and I, meeting Heidi Swapp
I didn’t mention all that much about Creative Escape 2009 … but Jennifer and I had the opportunity to attend this awesome, amazing, mind-blowing event this last August. We escaped our lives for a few days and were completely immersed in crafting goodness.
Let. Me. Tell. You. It was beyond awesome. I can speak for both us when I say we left Creative Escape filling renewed, rechartged and ready to craft our little hearts out. Every now and then I think you need to refill your inspiration cup. This was definitely an event where we went and our cups were filled beyond our wildest dreams.
They have announced the teachers for Creative Escape 2010 and I so want to go again. All the teachers are super cool and very inspiring, but I’m especially excited about Claudine Hellmuth.
If you haven’t heard of her, pop on over to her blog. She is a collage artist and does some cool work. I have all her books and dream of having even an ounce of her talent. I have tried many of the techniques she shares in her books and have stacks of collages that have been started, but never finished. I’m looking forward to meeting her and soaking up some of her mojo.
Some of the other teachers on the bill, okay all of them, are super cool and well worth making the treck to Arizona for, as well as paying for the event (it’s a little precey, but worth every penny). You have to sign up to be placed in the registration lottery. Starting February 15th they will select at random some 700+ people to attend. I can only hope Jennifer or I get picked again!!!
