Feeling creatively stuck or just need a break from the daily grind?
Summer Fling: A Crafty Escape is your chance to recharge, reconnect, and create—without the distractions of home or the pressure of unfinished projects.
Date: August 22-24, 2025
Location: Aloft Chicago Schaumburg
This weekend retreat is designed to give you a balance of inspiration, relaxation, and community. Whether you come solo or with friends, you’ll walk away with completed projects, fresh ideas, and a full creative cup.
Here’s what makes it different:
- Combination of open crop time, make & takes and instructor led classes
- No Guilt, Just Fun: You deserve a weekend for yourself. This is your permission slip to rest, laugh, and play with paper.
- Creative Momentum: With hands-on classes (layouts and a mini album), you’ll actually make something—no more bringing a bag of supplies home untouched
- Supportive Vibe: This isn’t one of those “perfect scrapbooker” events. All skill levels are welcome, and it’s a judgment-free zone.
- Shop + Surprise: We’ve got a pop-up shop, giveaways, and a few secret treats up our sleeves.
What’s Included:
- Exclusive classes with kits (taught by Inessa of PaperandBling + Erica Rose Creates)
- Crop time in a bright, welcoming space
- Shopping opportunities
- Sweet surprises and creative extras
- Lunch on Saturday
Limited Seats Available: This retreat is intentionally kept small to keep it cozy and fun.
Cost & Payment Options:
- Full payment- $299
- Split payment- $50 deposit, $100 due 6/1/25, remainder due 8/1/25
If you’ve been craving a creative win—and some time just for you—Summer Fling is your sign to say yes.
