Art-Full Horizons Make 'n Take!

I am very exciting to participating in the first Art-Full Horizons event this May in Palm Springs.

 

If you are in Southern California (and even if you are not and want to vacation in this resort town!), you will want to attend this event!  Here's all the details here........  Produced by my friends Donna Salazar, Jennifer Priest and Laura Miller, this is a scrappy, crafty, extraordinary event.


This first evening of the event includes the Grand Garden Tea - an evening of delights and crafty make 'n takes.  I will be featuring this Mini Album in Minutes using the Zutter Bind-it-All, Scor-it-All and this delightful Bo Bunny Mango Luau paper - to get us in the mood for summer time!

Hope you can join us for this fabulous event, as well as stop by and make your own Summery Mini.....in Minutes!

Founding Zutter Zister Nan Paturzo

From the Art-Full Horizons Event website.....

It's a Zeminar....

We are so excited to be working with 5 fabulous cutting edge manufacturers to present these tool focused "deminars" to our attendees!! Zutter, our corporate sponsor, has sent their very best representative, Nan Paturzo, to present a "Zeminar" on all thingz Zutter. We're so excited to be working with Nan and Zutter!!

Bind-It-All "Zeminar" with Nan Paturzo

No doubt about it – you need to see the Bind-it-All and Dreamkuts in action to really “get it.” This “Zeminar” is all about getting your Zutter on, and learning the basics of making a fast and fabulous mini book using three core Zutter tools: the Bind-it-All, the Dreamkuts, and the Scor-it-All.

We will be using a 6X6 Zutter Cover-All (makes albums FAST!), ¾” Zutter Owire, embellishments from GCD, and patterned papers from Bo Bunny. Faster than a speeding Bind-it-All, you will be creating this album with pockets, flaps and cards in no time flat!

Students need to bring a paper trimmer, adhesive and fast working hands!

Nan has been scrapbooking for over 16 years, and has been crafting and teaching with the Bind-it-All since it’s beginning in 2007. As a Founding Zutter Zister, she handles marketing, design team activities, blogging and message boarding for Zutter. She is active in local scrapbooking activities in Southern California, and travels on behalf of Zutter. And all that is part-time! Nan also works full-time in marketing (not scrapbooking related), has a busy family life – two daughters Marli (learner’s permit and track team) and Franny (dance team and Girl Scouts), and hubby Peter (starting their own business together!) All that and she is training constantly for her next half marathon. A full marathon isn’t too far in the future.

Join Us for Art-Full Horizons

I'm putting on one of my other hats here to tell you about Art-Full Horizons. Last Fall, Donna Salazar (you know, the artist who designed the Distrezz-It-All), Laura Miller  (a superb retreat organizer), and I, by some cosmic force of fate, came together around a table at the back of a Chili's restaurant and hatched an idea over chips and salsa.

Art-Full Horizons was born. We talked about what we would like to see in a weekend scrapbooking/papercrafting event. What did we hear from others? What was already being done? And what wasn't? We left the restaurant that night with notes scribbled on paper and stuffed into our purses and pockets, minds whirling with possibilities, and smiles on our faces.

I am so very excited that Zutter has agreed to go along on this adventure with us as our Platinum Sponsor!  We will be featuring the Bind-It-All and Zutter products in most classes and offering an exclusive Zutter make-n-take project at our Grand Garden Tea, the kickoff to Art-Full Horizons. I mean, the Bind-It-All is so awesome, how could we not use it!!??

We've rounded up a group of talented instructors/designers from across the country.  People we know will knock your socks off! I want my socks knocked off at an event -- we're sure you do too!

Marah Johnson....

 
Donna Salazar...

 
Robyn Weatherspoon...

 
Stephanie Ackerman... 

 
Jennifer Priest ...

PLUS special guests who will be presenting one hour deminars each morning.

We've scoured the southland for the perfect location -- the Renaissance Resort Palm Springs. This European boutique style hotel makes you "feel like you're on vacation when you walk in the door" according to Donna Salazar. Um, yeah, it does feel that way!!

And guess what? Your hotel room is INCLUDED in your registration fee. Check out the hotel on a travel website and compare the rates -- we got a fabulous package for you!!

Then there's the gourmet food...breakfast and lunch included each day. Dinner can be a steal of a deal at the on-site Rocks Lounge Happy Hour where you can get a generous Cioppino soup for just $4, Salad and Sandwich for $4 and Crab Cakes for about the same. Or make it a night on the town with gourmet Palm Springs dining just a few steps away downtown.

 

This is the signature cheesecake from the on-site DATE Restaurant. Yum-O!

On Friday night we're welcoming everyone to the event with the Grand Garden Tea. Photo Vignettes, Hors d'Ourves, Meet and Greet with Instructors, FREE Make N Takes, and Vendors will provide a night for fun! The public can attend the event for just $20 -- what a deal!
