Creative Escape

I am back from attending Creative Escape. It was a fantastic weekend as well as exhausting. I felt like I never stopped from the moment Nikki and I left my house to drive to Phoenix till I got back home. The classes at Creative Escape were great. The logistics of Creative Escape were not so great. I will let Heidi Swapp and Doug Jones (Mr. Bazzill) have a learning curve on this one. We were the guinea pigs for the first ever Creative Escape and I am glad to be a guinea pig. I am so glad that I was able to attend Creative Escape 2006.

I have been home over a day now from Phoenix and I am still completely exhausted. I think the swelling of my ankles (I am assuming from the driving) is almost back to norm (so that just means my ankles are regular fat).

I would have to say that the trunk show at Creative Escape was one of the highlights. I got to see actual paper crafted items by all the artists/instructors of Creative Escape. They were scraptacular projects. It was more than just seeing what they created for a class and I copied. These were actual personal items produced by the instructors.

I can't say that I will attend next year's Creative Escape but am glad to say that I was at the first Creative Escape!! Thank you to Heidi Swapp, Doug Jones, instructors, volunteers, sponsors, and especially my fellow students. I loved meeting all the ladies that I was able to meet. Thanks to all of you for making me and my sister's weekend in Phoenix and true joy!!!

P.S. This picture is from the Epson team that were on-site at Creative Escape. Nikki is on the left and I am on the right in our "Fat & Scrappy" tees that we made especially for Creative Escape!!!
