Quick "Hello"
I have already checked into my room, seen the wonderful Michele Snead from the North County Croppin' Cuties and Candy Apple Inn plus the sneaked a peak to make sure room set-up was going smoothly. All looks great!
Sadly, Stephanie Ackerman is ill and will not be making it to teacher he class. BooHoo!
Thankfully Jennifer Priest will be taking her 4pm Friday classroom time and teaching the Bind it All Basics and bonus class, which she is now offering for the incredible deal of only $20 total! DO NOT miss this chance to take this class for this special price ( I have seen just the BiA Basics class by Jennifer for $30) plus you can still get the Pink BiA for only $60 (including tax) once you pay for the class.

Don't Forget To Bring Canned Food!
Hope you're having a great Memorial Day! It's Jennifer Priest here to remind you about a little food drive we're doing at the retreat this weekend. All the info is below...
Scrapbook Royalty is collecting canned food at Desert Scrappers Retreats!!!
Jennifer Priest will be at Desert Scrappers Retreats selling tote hooks and aprons, teaching classes and make n takes, selling raffle tickets and collecting food for charity.
Right now Scrapbook Royalty has partnered with Fiskateers to collect canned food for the homeless and those in need. We always do a raffle to benefit charity at Laura's retreats (thanks Laura!) so this time I am offering one raffle ticket for every 3 cans or boxes of nonperishable food you bring to me at the retreat to donate. If you bring 10 cans, you'll receive a goodie bag! For example, bring 20 cans of food and get 6 raffle tickets and two goodie bags.
We'll also be selling raffle tickets in the traditional sense: $2 per ticket or 20 tickets for $20. The proceeds from the two raffles I am doing will be split equally between Scrapbook Royalty and the American Diabetes Association. Diabetes is a disease that has affected nearly every member of my family. Scrapbook Royalty has yet to help a charity regarding this disease so this is our opportunity to make a difference for yet another worthy cause.
Here's a checklist for the retreat:
- Bring Canned Food. Get a raffle ticket for every 3 cans, goodie bag for every 10 cans.
- Bring $ for Raffle Tickets. $2 per ticket or 20 tickets for $20.
- Shop for Scrapbook Royalty loot: and help support our charity. I'll have tote hooks and aprons at the Hydrangea Hippo booth.
- Shop at Hydrangea Hippo. Kits are Buy Two Get One free, lots of ribbon, stick pins, banner kits, grab bags, and more.
- Sign Up for Classes. Check out this post for the Paypal buttons and class pics and descriptions. Get a goodie bag for signing up by May 28 and paying online through Paypal.
- Have fun!

Are you anxious to start binding your own mini books? Whether you own a Bind-It-All already or you are just curious about how it works, this class is for you! Join Jennifer Priest of the Bind-It-All Design Team to explore tricks, tips, and techniques using the Bind It All. In the class you'll create your very own "Play Book" (not pictured) with directions for everything you'll ever want to do with the Bind-It-All.
About The $10 Bonus Class:
It's been said that the best way to learn something is to actually "do" it. After the "Basics" class, create a mini book using the skills you just learned. Not only will you have the instructor there to help you, you'll also have a chance to play with Zutter's newest creation, Cover-Alls! Mix various media for your pages - envelopes, acetate, chipboard, and more! We'll have an embellishment, border punch, stamp, and paper bar featuring My Mind's Eye products set up so you can create your own custom design during the class.
To sign up for a class, simply click on the Paypal button below the class you would like and pay via Paypal. I will have your goodie waiting for you at the retreat!
Also, I will be there representing Scrapbook Royalty, a 501c3 nonprofit charity that supports other charities through scrapbooking and other fundraising events. We are based in San Diego but have events and volunteers all over the United States. Interested in helping out? Please check out our website (lower lefthand corner of the page).
We will have two raffles during the event for some wonderful, goodie filled baskets. The raffles will benefit the American Diabetes Association. Diabetes is a disease that has touched my family and many families across the United States so the fight against Diabetes is definitely a worthy cause to support. I will be selling raffle tickets at the event and the baskets will be on display then as well.
Scrapbook Royalty has operating costs, such as the maintenance of our website, accounting fees, storage fees, and so on. To help pay for these items we fundraise a little for ourselves (because we can't help others if we don't have a phone! LOL)
I'll be selling Scrapbook Royalty tote hooks and handmade aprons with all proceeds benefiting Scrapbook Royalty -- check them out in my Hydrangea Hippo booth.
See you there!!
