I have been planning a craft / scrap weekend for next week at my church for quite some time now. I had 3 make and take projects planned and had planned on an attendance of about 15 people. I bought everything and was all set to run with my plan until last night.

My pastors wife said she lost count of the calls that came in and she expects at least 25-30 people! That would be amazing but I don't have the funds to buy more candles and ornaments and all the stuff to go with them! And the card I had planned was very detailed and "blingy" used the cuttlebug and cricut and a stamped image.

Now I have rethought my entire plan because she said all they really want to do is scrapbook and learn to use the cricut!

So I need all my FAB friends to point me to 3 cricut / cuttlebug projects that I can make packages up in advance for the basic stuff and just cut the frills during the crop.

I was hoping to have a fall themed one, a Christmas one and a Breast Cancer one but now I am thinking a fall scrapbook lay out, a fun box project and a Christmas card.

ANY LINKS to detailed plans will be totally appreciated because at this point I don't even know where to begin looking to find what I need!

Gulp!!! If were you I wouldn't stress too much, I think the ladies will just want to use the cuttlebug and cricut and cut out things they'd like. You can advise them on how to arrange said things on their scrapbk pages. Having that many ladies using the machines will take up most of the time I'm sure. Are you bringing some scrapbks and cards so they can get the general idea?

Have them make bookmarkers in all three of your themes. They are pretty easy to do.

Those are both great ideas! I imagine they are probably going to be really interested in you demonstrating the machines.
