Default SCRAP STAMP ART tour

Has anyone ever attended one of these? They are having one in Colombia, SC next month and I can't decide if it is worth the 4 hour drive

Have the classes been worthwhile

Has the vendor hall been exciting?

Would you go again?

I can't find any conferences in NC and would like to learn a few new techniques, plus find new products and vendors but never seem to be at the right place.

I used to go to the QuiltFest in Williamsburg and of course the one year they had scrapbooking, I wasn't interested. Now that i am interested, I can't find any near by

I went to one last year and I am attending another one this weekend.

I have never taken the classes just watched the demos and went shopping with my DD. We had a blast and bought way to much stuff!

Default Thanks

Hope you have a wonderful time. If you have any Must Sees or demos you wouldn't want to have missed, can you let me know? I guess I will be going in February - thanks to your feedback. Always "need" an excuse to find more "gatta haves!"

No I don't think there are any 'must see' demos. We just go from booth to booth watching the demos and then looking at all the products. I can take awhile but it is worth it.

Also bring plenty of cash. Some booths don't take credit cards!

I went to the one this company sponsored in NJ in April and had a blast! I had never been to anything like it. Unfortunately I didn't go on Friday night to the classes, but still got to see lots of demos on Sat and Sun. The NJ one only had about 35 vendors, which people said wasn't very many. It worked for me. I was a happy camper, since it seemed to be all more related to stampers/card makers rather than scrapbookers. I spent a bundle, but don't regret it. I will certainly go next year when it comes here.

Above comments are just my opinions and may not be shared by others who attended the same show/location.
