A full student supply list will be provided well in advance, along with great shopping opportunities to purchase any items you might need!

What does the event schedule look like?

As we will be dealing with many time zones for this event, all times will be in Eastern Time Zone. Not sure what that is? Google “What time is it in Toronto?” and that’s the zone we are in. We will release the event schedule approx. 30 days prior to the start of the event.

All event materials will be posted in the Guides section of the event Facebook group and on our classroom platform. We make navigating this event very easy! You will have access to the private Facebook Group and all YouTube classes for as long as YouTube is available!

How do I register for the event?

Alumni:

Registration will open for our Alumni* on October 1st at 12:00 pm ET to October 4th, 2024 at 11:59 am ET. Alumni can also register during the general registration period until registration closes on October 28th, 2024, at midnight ET. 

Note to our alumni friends: As event product is ordered after we close registration, the event will not sell out during our Alumni period. PLEASE do not rush to register as soon as registration opens. That will cause our site to go down and possibly duplicate registrations. If the site is slow, please do not hit refresh repeatedly. Again, that will cause the site to slow down.

General:

General registration (including Alumni!) will be from October 4th at 12:00 pm ET to October 28th, 2024 at midnight ET. A link to register will be available on this page.  Be sure to register early in this time period, as we have closed registration early for each event due to volume.

Register by clicking the button at the bottom of this page! It’s fast and easy!

Here are a few important details:

Each registrant needs to place an order on our website. If you do not have an account with us, you may wish to set one up early. Please include only one person per order. Complete it slowly. If your device uses auto-complete, check all information, including your email and mailing address.

The email address you provide when registering is how we will contact you. IMPORTANT: If you use Gmail, please note that our emails are often filtered into the Promotions tab. Also, please ensure you correctly enter your email address, as this is where your order confirmation and future correspondence will be sent.

After you complete your registration, you will automatically be emailed an order confirmation from the SCT website. If you do not receive this email, either you incorrectly entered your email address or your spam filter has blocked them. Please check both your spam and promotions folders for the emails. Search for “Scrapbook and Cards Today Magazine <[email protected]>” as the sender. 

IMPORTANT: Any address changes must be provided to us 45 days before the event. Send address changes to [email protected] with ADDRESS CHANGE in the reference line.

What form of payments do you accept?

We now offer payments via credit card OR PayPal. During checkout, you can choose the option that you prefer. You DO NOT need to have a PayPal account to check out. Please do not send an EMT payment. It’s a separate accounting system.

If you have any issues with these payment options, please email us at [email protected].

Payment Plan

We are pleased to offer a great installment payment plan for all our 2025 events. Please click HERE for all the details. If you choose the payment plan, you will make the first payment at the time of registration. Your first payment will include the shipping. For the next two payments, you will receive an invoice from PayPal. You do not need to have a PayPal account to pay these invoices.

All payments must be received within one week of the due date. Following up on payments is a lot for our small team to manage, so we ask that you keep track of the payment plan you’ve requested and make all payments in a timely manner.

Can I ship my box to a friend’s house?

You are welcome to ship your event box to any address you choose. We prefer not to ship to P.O. boxes for carrier tracking purposes. They also can take much longer. We do not offer combined shipping when multiple boxes are shipping to the same address.

Can I pick up my box?

Yes, when you complete your registration form, you can choose the option to pick up your box at our offices in Markham, Ontario, Canada.

What is your cancellation policy?

While we cannot offer refunds, you are welcome to make arrangements to give or sell your space to a friend! Please let us know at least 2 weeks before the event opens. It will be up to the person transferring their registration to ensure the kit materials are shipped to the person purchasing the registration.

If there is a waiting list once registration is closed and you can no longer attend, there will be a $25 administration fee (and a 4% payment processing fee) for us to find a replacement attendee from the waiting list. We cannot guarantee we will be able to find a replacement.

Sale of event box items

AFTER YOU HAVE REGISTERED

I have registered for the event. What happens now?

After you register, we will send a welcome email on December 4th with preliminary event information and a link to the private Facebook Group for this event. The links to the Facebook group will also be printed on the bottom of your SCT order confirmation. We will not open the group before December 4th. At that time, we will begin to approve members. It may take about a week to get through all of the requests.

Please do not invite any non-attendees to this group. We will be in touch several times between registration and the actual event opening with any additional information for the weekend. We will also post all communications into the Guides section of the Facebook Group as well as in the My Courses section of the SCT website. Again, if using a Gmail address, please check your promotions tab on your computer.

How do I change the address I want my event box shipped to?

Any address changes MUST be communicated 45 days before the event date. Please email [email protected].

What supplies are provided? What should I bring?

All event boxes, which include class supplies, will be shipped 30 days before the event begins.

The class supply list will be sent out approximately 40 days before the event. On the same day, we will release all of the shopping exclusives from our sponsors and retail partners!

All students will need for this event is a basic understanding of card making, a standard-size die-cut machine, some colouring tools (pencils, watercolour markers, alcohol-based markers, or watercolours), a standard range of ink colours, possibly some coloured cardstock, acrylic blocks, etc. We highly recommend a stamping platform, as many instructors will use one. Don’t have any of these? Not to worry. We will have shopping opportunities for you to purchase those items!

We will be providing all card bases and basic cardstock for die-cutting.
