What a fabulous time in Wellington! You Wellingtonians really know how to put on an event - SENZ wellington really had it all. Let's see... Wellington SENZ provided...
* Non stop shopping
* Amazing weather
* Compulsory exercise built into the venue - you didn't get anywhere without negotiating at least 3 large ramps.
* A venue next to the railway line and if I waited long enough a train went under the bridge every time I crossed it. lol
* More glorious weather
* An abundance of classes
* Probably the most relaxed classes I've ever taught.
There was more - that was just part of it. I thoroughly enjoyed SENZ, Fiona and crew did a great job.
The classes went amazing... here are a few pics from some of my classes...This was the paintables class... some of the creations as they were being put together...
And then there was the card buffet class...Check out this prima goodness....each participant got a class pack with enough stuff in it to create 6 cards.. and then access to this as well...
And actually there was tonnes more... there was bowls of buttons, alphas, more lace,glitter, ribbon, leaves, more flowers, glimmer mist... It was amazing. The most cards created was 12 - I was so proud of that lady! lol.
Remember I'm repeating this class at the Autumn Escape in May. To make sure it's a little different I'll probably change the class instructions up a little but the concept of the buffet will remain the same. As it stands the class space is limited to 25-30, so being quick is the key to getting in on this one!
By the way it was great to hear the excitement over the Autumn Retreat when I was at SENZ! Thanks for supporting us - so many people telling us that they have been meaning to register and asking if it was full yet - no it's not full yet, but the classes are filling up!
I'll leave you with an image of another one of the paintables pages... seriously there were like 80-90 pages that were this amazing. It just astounded me.
IF you sat in on my class and have any Feedback for either Prima (Manufacturer of most the products in the packs and the buffet!) or Tattered Angels (manufacturer of Glimmer Mist) then I'll leave you some email contacts below. It's always nice to get feedback about my classes, especially to the manufacturers that I was representing - be sure to mention you were at SENZ with me!

Looks so scrumptious! Wish I'd done that class. Booked into others when yours was initially full. Were all places taken in your classes in the end Nic?

Hi Nic,
It was great to finally do a Nic Howard class. Had a ball playing with all that yummy stuff. Thanks for showing me theres more to scrapbooking than paper & glue. Had a great time.

I love all those beautiful stuffs, those flowers, the buttons, alphas, more lace,glitter, ribbon, leaves, more flowers, glimmer mist... It was amazing.
I want it, seriously want it, I'm so falling in love with those scrapbooking stuffs...but...
unfortunetely...I don't have so much money to buy all that stuff..
Where I could buy them for a good prices (50% off like in HobbyLobby, Joann, ...)?
