[ I heart ck events ]

A little flashback. This was one of my classes at CKU-Provo in the summer of 2004. Any chance you were there? Back then, I may have been teaching a class on creative lettering or border ideas or color-blocking ideas or something you would NOT see me teaching now. : )

By the way – if you want to see a taste of CKU, there are some fun videos on the CK site. Go here and click on “The CKU Experience”.

Some of you have asked where I’ll be teaching in 2008.

I have chosen to cut back with my work travels, allowing me to be at home with my family even more. Our babies are growing up so fast. I’ve been teaching for a decade and have had amazing experiences, have met seriously special people, built friendships with people I will have otherwise never met, and have been to more cities than I can remember (thank goodness I do a year-end travels list every year so I can go back & look!).

What I’m trying to say is, I won’t be teaching this year. I LOVE teaching, but it’s time for a break in that corner of my work and I feel really, really good about the decision. I’ll add that I think the CK events are terrific, and there is an incredible staff behind the scenes working very hard to bring the best of the best into one place. One event at a time. Every scrapbooker should attend one at some point! Be sure to look into the information here. There may be a CKU or CKC coming to your neck of the woods this year.

And, of course, if I make an appearance somewhere, or happen to teach something locally or whatever … I will be sure to note this on my blog. Pinky promise.

[ CKU is coming to YOU! ]

Mark your calendar to watch Lisa on QVC on Feb. 4, where she will sell the CKU-in-a-box kit. I’ll be in touch as we get closer with more details. I am part of this project and it’s our way of bringing CKU right to your living room.
