cku faces

Speaking of CKU, I wanted to add that we've got great a really fantastic staff behind these events and I really appreciate what they do to pull it all off. When you think about how much coordination goes on between sponsors & thousands of products & student registration & prizes ... they are awesome. And cool teachers too. I love seeing everybody at CKU. Just to mention a few that I have pictures of ...

Both super talented and lovely people, and great examples in many ways. I love how Carrie's "big-scale" scrapbooking style is so striking & dramatic & clean. Totally inspires me. And Jessica helps people branch out & reach into the digital scene. She's so fantastic at helping scrapbookers go hybrid. One day she may even push me to the digital side. : )

C.D. is the CK Scrapbooker of the Year and Britney is the newly appointed Creative Editor for Creating Keepsakes magazine. Both darling as can be. Wish they were my neighbors. C.D. and I had a fun conversation about how different our scrapbook styles are (she's more "free-spirited" and I'm more "orderly") and how great that is about this hobby ... that everyone finds their place, their style ... but there's always room to play and try different things. Britney is going to be SO great in her new role as the "face of CK". She is a long-time scrapbooker & has added so much to the CK family for quite a while.

Great, great girls. The talent keeps oozing out of people! I honestly wish I could capture the way Candice captures with her camera. Such a gift. Ali is a magnet for attention. She has this really fun blend of goofy & sentimental going on in her soul. I love her. And Ana - my new friend - is super adorable and, from what I hear, did great with her classes this weekend. I would love to sit in on one of her classes some day!

Next stop for CKU: Nashville in August. If you want more information about attending, click here and look at "Events".

Wow! It sounds like you were surrounded by a group of wonderful women. Does CKU ever come to the NJ/NY area?
