Hello there, friends! This past weekend, our team got together to bring our Crop & Create Delivered Papercrafting event to the creative spaces of almost 1200 attendees, and we’d love to give you a peek into the fun, and don’t miss the information about how YOU can join us for our fall events at the end of this post!
Our boxes, filled with new and exclusive products from some of our favourite manufacturers, went out all over the world to our attendees, delivering happiness!
We found so many photos of happy faces and porch shots with those signature boxes in our Facebook Group!
As a fun surprise, Vicki Boutin joined our founder, Catherine Tachdjian, for the exciting unboxing night—always a favourite whether you are on #teampeek or #teamwait!
Before the event, our attendees were prepping their spaces and getting ready for the party to start! Take a look at how just a few of our attendees prepped for the big event!
The weekend began early on Friday with presentations and mini-classes, that weren’t so mini! We got an exclusive presentation from Laura Graff at Scrapbook.com to start the day, then made cards with Jana Eubank and Simple Stories, an entire album with Jill Broadbent from Close to My Heart, and got organizational tips from Tiffany Spaulding from Totally Tiffany! Finally, it was time for happy hour, where we found out who was co-hosting the event with Catherine, Meghann Andrew!
Virginia Nebel also joined us during happy hour to create off-the-cuff, and inspired our attendees to try out a new design! Here’s one page created from Virginia’s wonderful example by Sally Cranney:
Meghann started Saturday morning off for us with her first class, Destination Documented! This class explored Meghann’s easy method for recording travel memories, which our attendees loved! Take a look at one of the amazing layouts created in her class by Alissa Trowbridge:
In between our next class, we had an amazing design chat with Cathy Z., who took us through our Spring 2022 Issue of Scrapbook & Cards Today magazine, and explained why layouts “worked.” It was so enlightening!
Our next class was the Lovely Little Moments mini album class with Vicki Boutin! In this three-hour class, we created an entire interactive mini album that was stunning!
This class was our longest at 3 hours, but the outcome was certainly worth the effort! This album designed by Vicki was stunning! Take a look at one page from Laura Haun’s album.
After Vicki’s wrap-up was finished, Paige Evans taught a not-so-mini class, filled with colour and her signature collections! Take a look at Robin Chartier’s layout inspired by Paige’s design:
We met with Catherine and Meghann again for prizes and fun before we finished off the night, winding down and colouring with Angie Blom, like Debra Gardner did here:
We kicked off our third class on Sunday morning with Virginia Nebel’s Designer Doubles class, where our attendees created two multi-photo double-page layouts!
Take a look at this beautiful layout created in class by Sue Moody:
Another bonus class was next, taught by the fantastic Victoria Calvin, which focused on creating with 6 x 6 and 6 x 8 inch paper pads!
After so much fun, it was time for our final class of the event, taught by Jess Forster, Big and Small Moments.
In this class, Jess discussed storytelling, photography, and design tips for capturing our everyday routines, and created two gorgeous layouts, like this one by Patti Wnek:
After all of that creating, we came together one last time for prize giveaways and a special farewell!
We want to thank our amazing team of instructors, our partner manufacturers, and all of our attendees for making this past weekend so truly special! It was an unforgettable weekend!

missed this one but am signed for the fall.
Lovely layouts everyone.
Looks like so much fun!
What a treat to see my layout here! Thank you!! I enjoyed this weekend so much. It felt like I went on a vacation with my SCT family. Each of the 3 days were jam packed and I’ll be scrapping for awhile to finish up all the many projects that were taught. Thank you SCT!
It was a great weekend paper crafting and hanging with my friends! Thank you Catherine and the SCT team for providing these virtual events.
Help!! I can’t find the videos & tutorials/classes from the past weekend to keep working on the projects & get to the ones I haven’t even seen yet. When I go to the group on FB it just gives me recent comments posted or info about the fall events. No ‘guides’ or directions I can see to Replay anything. Where has all that gone – that we’re supposed to be able to access for a year – & how the heck do I get to it??? HELP!!!!!!!!!!! I’m really getting frustrated here ………..
Look under Guides at the top.
They are there.
