NOTE: We still have spaces left for this year's cruise, but full payment is due upon booking.
Thanks to Jim West and the shiny team at ScrapMap.com
, all the details are set in place for the 4th Annual Crafty Chica Art Cruise!
Special guest: superstar podcaster and savvy crafter, Sister Diane of CraftyPod.com! She will be reporting from our event and sharing some of her amazing crafty energy!
I took the feedback from the last cruise (yay, we added one more night to the package!) and put together a fun 6-day artsy adventure. Here are all the details! What I love the most is that there is only a $50 deposit. And if you sign up now, you can make monthly payments of $75! We are also including a special "Crafty Chica" t-shirt that we can all wear on the ship during the cruise!
