make art in...ENGLAND!



this secret has been KILLING ME!

Jim West, Scrap Map owner, has been asking me to tour with him since 2009, when I was a guest instructor on Tim's cruise to Mexico...

at least 5 times I said no...

but, when I talked with Jim this time, he asked if I would prefer a land tour & where would I LOVE to go?

it took me all of 5 seconds to say...ENGLAND...

ever since I was a little girl, I have been enchanted with the royal family & castles...

then Diana entered the scene...
more to LOVE...

then she had 2 adorable sons...
even MORE to LOVE...

now we have sweet Prince George to LOVE & watch grow up...

so...

I'm inviting YOU to join us on an enchanting adventure to ENGLAND...

here's the scoop...

the dates are JULY 26, 2015...August 1st, 2015
with an optional 3 day add on tour...

I had some things that I wanted to be included...
FOR SURE...

Jim West & no one else... will be our guide...
I can tell you from experience...he is THE BEST!

I want to keep this tour intimate, 
so I asked to limit our group to just 30...
so, if you're interested...
PLEASE...DON'T WAIT to sign up...

 I wanted to include time to...make art in ENGLAND...
so there will be classes designed just for this special group...

 I wanted a reasonable package price... Jim accomplished that too!

 I also wanted to include all my UK friends in the fun...
so there is a 3 day add on tour & a FULL ALL DAY class included...
so...UK friends...

 I AM COMING ACROSS THE BIG POND to see YOU!

 I hope to see you in class in LONDON...
on Sunday August 2nd, 2015...
those details are coming soon...

 you will find all the details, payment options & the complete tour itinerary on the ScrapMap site...

 this link will take you there...

 I hope you can join us and...

    I've never wanted to go to a crop so much ever! I am a huge anglophile! We spent the past Christmas in London, and we had hopes of returning in Sept, but have hit a snag. We've walked and walked the streets of London, ridden trains out and about and toured many castles. But. . .I've never made art in England! You go, girl! What a special treat this will be!

    That's wonderful news! Come and stay with me!!! I'm in beautiful Surrey. 20 mins from London, 10mins from the river (all those lovely pubs and resteraunts) and from the gorgeous Hampton Court Palace! I've got 3 spare rooms & 2 spare bathrooms so good for you and your entourage, plus lots of room in the garden for tents!! I even have a craft room which seats 6 easily. I'd just want a place on the workshop in return (of course). Come on, who needs a posh hotel when my hubby cooks such a good English breakfast, lol? Suz xxx

    Went to London in 2010 with several girlfriends. We had a blast! You will so enjoy your trip to London! So much to do - National Museum, plays, shopping, Big Ben, St. Paul's Cathedral, Tower of London- you must see the Crown Jewels on display there. Oh I would so love to go back!

    I came over from facebook to see your crackle paste project and saw the make art in England banner. I've just signed up for the workshop. So looking forward to meeting you and taking the workshop. Thank you for giving me the perfect excuse to pop home to England from Switzerland for the weekend. :)
