thank you The Island’s Creative Escape…

1we just returned from a creative escape on the island… scrapbook island that is. located in northern california, scrapbook island’s creative escape is a wonderful place filled with creativity (and marshmallows). the owner laurie and her team know as the island girls, were wonderful hosts to three days of workshops. we arrived at the store and got right to work to get everything unpacked and set up for the weekend. a HUGE thank you to mario and richele for all of their behind the scenes work throughout the entire weekend making sure everything was perfection – i couldn’t have done it without you guys…

thank you to everyone who signed up for the workshops to learn and share their creative excitement with everyone. the entire store was filled with inspiration and education as we explored “Creative Chemistry LIVE”, and let our imagination wander with “The Artful Assemblage”. the technique tags and finished projects are always incredible and it makes me so happy to share what i love so much and have others just as excited to learn…

then of course there is my biggest fan lucy who works at the island. she’s always filled with such a joyful genuine spirit and she makes everyone around her feel it. she’s the “tim expert” at the island and i’m so happy i got to spend time with her once again…

so thanks again to mario, richele, laurie, and everyone at the island for a great visit.  i have to share this photo from one of the nights where we managed to visit the busiest yogurtland i’ve ever seen in my life (it was insane, yet oh so fun). it’s a great reminder that no matter how busy we are, it’s important to remember the now and enjoy the journey…t!m
