Sherri, thanks for the spreadsheet. It's going to be very helpful not only for me, but to leave at home . . . just in case. Thanks again for sharing.

Aunt Deb:cool:

. . . . may I please have a copy of your spreadsheet, too. I'm a compulsive organizer who can't find anything. Thanks, Aunt Deb

Yep, that's the album.

Too many of Tim's fans in line. I should have taken my camera with me, but I was a woman on a mission - knew what I wanted and how much I could spend. A number of exhibitors prohibited pictures due to copyrights. I'll look into that show you were talking about in Aug, since it's less than 20 miles from home.

I did see the cruise that you were mentioning. I did look into that one but the Cruise and Crop one seemed like a better fit. Similar P, P & P - ports, projects & price, it came down to timing and cruise line. I hope I made the right choice, I've sailed with Princess and HAL in the past.

Okay ladies - just spent 3 hours shopping at the show. Tim Holtz and Jenni Bowlin are there along with hundreds maybe a thousand or so women and a few token males. Lots of layouts for cruising (generic, of course). Talked with a number of ladies but didn't find anyone that took a cruise with a group dedicated to scrap/paper/stamping.

I found a neat journal kit with a cruise theme at Embelish It! (http://www.embellishonline.com) - they happen to be sponsoring a scrapbooking cruise in 2014 using the TA that I'm using. They have worked together in the past and the ladies always have a lot of fun.

The cruise I'm taking is crafting like things you would see on Pintrest. Supposed to walk off the ship with about 20 gifts for the holidays. As of right now all I have to bring is a basic tool kit, but final supply list will be available closer to sailing.

Oh by the way no new greatest latest tool/product introduction at this show - so used those pennies you've been savin' for a scrapbooking cruise. I'll keep ya posted with details as I find out.

Happy scrapin' n crusin'

About 200 days and I will be climbing aboard the Celebrity Reflection for a crafting cruise, but first I have to survive this week. Here in the Detroit area we have a scrapbook event called Mega Meet. Classes, crops and vendors from across the country. Plus we have several LSS in the metro area.

But I'll have to really be good and save a few $$$'s for the cruise. I'm planning to make a small travel journal before the cruise so I have a fun place to journal while on the ship, then take my time over the winter remembering what the sun looked like.:cool:

Hopefully we maybe cruisin' and scrappln' together in the future.

PS - Since I have to fly home - how much does a pound of paper weigh? Have to watch how many goodies I collect;)

Happy Birthday! Love your review.

I'm a preplanner too. What all is in your folder that you take with you?

Looking forward to the next chapter of "Mom, bf and Gambee takes on the high seas"
