Welcome to the Arts & Crafts Lodge. This is where you'll post your responses to the Camp Craft Challenges, which can be found here (http://www.creatingkeepsakes.com/articles/Camp_Challenge). Whether you choose to do one or all of the options listed, we can't wait to see what you create in the coming days.
Last week was a blast of creative happiness! Thank you for coming to camp and sharing your amazing ideas with us. I've loved seeing your ideas and getting to know each of you a bit better. This is one camp experience I'll never forget. :)
This week has been great! Everyday I got up bright and early eagerly anticipating what the next project would be! Thanks so much. I am totally motivated!
Hi Everyone!!! Everything is so pretty... remember to post to the ICON.. the I Rocked CK Summer Camp Icon so you don't knock galleries off the board!!! Everyone is SO creative!
Hey, I gave this a shot. I used alcohol inks and a felt stamper from Tim Holtz along with blending solution to make the "die dye" background around the flower. That was created with distress ink. The edges are pin-striped with an 18K gold leafing pen. I hope you all enjoy it.
I am a "camp councelor"for preteens every morning this week for our church V.B.S. This morning we struggled through making God's Eyes WITHOUT the great instructions that I found this afternoon!!I am taking some beads from my stash to add to their creations tomorrow! Thanks for the idea!
This is awesome. I am so glad to see all the activity on the board because of this.
Also it is a lot of fun to know EVERYONE is out there scrapping.
THANKS CK!
Ive had a great time at camp and so far have completed three projects, a frame, a noteboard and now a decorated desk top organizer. I so glad I came to camp as I have the raw products for ages and never got around to starting them. I still cant believe I completed three things. I hope everyone is enjoying themselves. Im off to start something new. Bye for now.
I finished 2 projects today - the god's eye and the cork board. It took me 3 attempts on the god's eye because I was using embroidery thread and skewers instead of the craft sticks.
Another productive day for me and kiddos. We just finished the Corkboard projust with a Twist. Yahoo! Her bday is coming up next month and wanted to show off her newly designed beach themed room to her friends. What a big relief to do something nice about her ugly wall. THANKS MEGAN!!!!
Seriously, you gals are so creative. I love how it's only morning two of camp and there are already stunning projects posted in our lodge. Way to go! To answer your question, there is just the one page with five challenges on it. You can do as many or as few as you'd like. And, yes, if you've signed up for camp you are automatically entered into our Snack Pack giveaways. Winners are posted daily on the bulletin board thread below: http://tinyurl.com/mzp84s
My best scappin buddy hasn't heard from me in a while. Hope she sees this--cause I didn't get her message that was left awhile ago. I just came across a package from her that was stacked in the diningroom during a clean up. Hope she forgives me---And helps me figure out all of the ways to "get around this "Camp"site!!!!
Me and my kids had so much fun making a tie dye shirt. My daughter even insisted making a Title Page for my LO when I scrapbook this camp. My younger daughter couldn't wait to do the bird seed project tomorrow. First, we need to walk to find some pinecones. Thanks CK. I'm not the only one having fun here, my kids are so excited too.
this is the first time I've ever done this so I'm not sure what to expect: will there be different challenges every day? I work all day and am not sure if I can actually take time to make a craft everyday, enlist the help of family members to take pictures of me making it, and then create a LO of it to post by 7/18. I've never posted anything, so I have to learn how to do that to. I'm wondering if I signed up for too much!
Hi again, campers! I'm here to answer your question about camp goodies (coupon code, iron-on transfer, etc.), but I'd first like to thank all of you campers using the buddy system and helping answer questions for your fellow campers. We so appreciate your willingness to share information and guide campers where they need to be. Now, on to the goodies question. You should receive a camp confirmation e-mail with all of this happiness attached this Thursday. If you don't have it by Friday, please visit our camp message board and let Beth Opel, co-camp director, know. I hope this clears up the confusion. Thanks for checking in.
Good morning, campers! Welcome to your first day of camp. I hope you're already having a wonderful time. Welcome to the Arts & Crafts Lodge. This is where I hope you'll share your responses to the Camp Craft Challenges, which are all posted at the following link: http://www.creatingkeepsakes.com/articles/Camp_Challenge
Not sure if my June 9 registration made it or not but am enjoying the site and thanks for hosting this event! No worries on the wondering around hoping you fit it - that reminds me of the first day of REAL camp - by the end of the week we'll be showing off t he arts and crafts and the friends we made! :)
I know I'm not a computer whiz----But I seem to be having trouble accessing all of the information. Am I really at camp? Am I registered? Wish that all of the information was more easy to get to. Oh-- what group list is there?
I am really pumped about the camp. Though I am not a traditional type camper, I know that any camp related to my passion -SCRAPBOOKING- will be a blast.
I know this isn't cheer camp - but I'm ready and rarin' to go. Too bad I have to put in my 8.5 hours at work first. :(
I'll be sneakin' into camp for the evening activities.
My oldest son is away at camp this week and although I already miss him, I'm excited and thankful to have my own "camp" to keep me busy! Can't wait for all the fun!
Since my daughter is working as a camp counselor this summer, I get to see pictures of camp excitement. I have to admit I am so excited about CK Summer Camp, that I have butterflies in my stomach!
I am so excited about this week's events! I often want to be creative but don't know where to begin. This week the guesswork has been done for me. Now all I have to do is gather my supplies and CREATE...
We're so glad you've decided to beat the heat and come inside this, the Arts & Crafts Lodge. Here, you'll find a challenge a day for the week of online CK Summer Camp. This is also where you'll post the results of those challenges. We can't wait to see what you create soon.
*CK Summer Camp begins on Monday, July 13. Follow the link below to register while there's still time!
