Nature Walk Layout Workshop by The Creative AKademy....


NATURE WALK is back in stock but in LIMITED QUANTITIES so hurry and grab yours if you're interested in this layout class. We've also moved this class to April 25th to allow everyone to get their supplies ordered and get registered

This class makes three double-page layouts and you have several kit options to choose from 😊 During the Class, we will be teaching using the Signature Kit, but will walk you through fully completing the layouts with the Essential Kit

The Essential Kit (this month, you'll need to order the products below directly from my website):
  • 166935 - Nature Walk DSP & Stickers
  • 166930 - Exploring Nature Coordinating Cardstock
  • 166931 - Faux Bronze Pentagons
  • 166932 - Secret Sea Ribbon
  • 166703 - White Willow 12x12 Cardstock
  • FREE SVG Titles
The Signature Kit (this month, you'll need to order the products below directly from my website):
  • The Essential Kit
  • 166926 - Nature's Symphony Bundle
Class Only Option $30 (you are responsible for getting the contents of the Kit - no physical product will be mailed). But you still must purchase this option.  

SIGN UP HERE for April's Class  - you'll use the drop-down menu to choose the Class Only Kit (this month is a little different because of the limited quantities left for Nature Walk). If you're wanting to create along with us on March 28th, you'll need to order your Kit no later than March 15th. While this doesn't guarantee that you'll receive your Kit in time, we are optimistic that you will. 


After registering, you'll receive an email with a link to our Private FB Group where the classes will be taught. You will have extended access to these classes so you can watch when it's convenient for you as well as rewatch if you need any clarification. PLUS we are always here to help answer any questions and help along the way!

FAQ:
Q: Can I use my Stampin' Rewards or Bonus Cash for my Kit purchase?
A: If you are purchasing the "Class Only" option, then Yes. If you decide to purchase the Essential or Signature Kit, you will NOT be able to use any rewards.

Q: Will I earn Stampin' Rewards on my Kit purchase?
A: If you are a customer of Katy or Andrea's then, YES, we will enter your order under your online ID and you will EARN Stampin' Rewards, just as if you were ordering the products yourself.

Q: Will there be any instructions or guides that we can print vs watching videos?
A: There will be a guide (with sketches) each month. You can save and view on your computer, or print off. There will be no "instructions" so you'll need to watch the videos for further instructions or additional design details.

Q: What if my FB name is different than the one I use to register?
A: When requesting to joint he FB Group, there is a question that ask you for any discrepancies in your FB Name and the name you used to order the Kit. Please provide any details in that box so we can get your accepted to the group seamlessly. 

Q: What if the Class has already passed but I still want the Kit?
A: As long as the Kit contents are still available, you can purchase the Kit at any time. You'll be added to the FB Group and have immediate access to the Classes while you wait for your Kit to arrive. 

Q: What if I purchase the Kit and you realize that the main staple of the Class is sold out and not returning (i.e. the DSP is no longer available). Will I get a refund?
A: GREAT question! You will NOT get a refund, but you will have the option of getting credit for a future Class. It will be your responsibility to respond in a timely manner to use the credit for a future Class that peaks your interest.

Q: I don't have access to a Cricut or Silhouette machine, will you be discounting my Kit purchase or mailing me the titles?
A: We will NOT be mailing out any physical titles nor be discounting the price of the Kit(s). The titles, while pretty on the layouts, are not necessary for the completion of the Class. They are simply a perk for signing up for the Class. You can use the Stickers that come with the Kit for you title or stamps/stickers to add alternate titles.
