Prepping For Class
Before class, your Inspiration needs to be out of the box, plugged in, Inspiration Studio software installed, and all updates ran. It’s okay if you’ve never cut before, but please be prepped and ready to cut before class begins. Also, please watch the ‘Caring For Your Mats’ video on the Fundamentals page, and have a mat prepped before class. Please also have fresh blades to cut with.
Questions?
Please read the FAQ. More questions? Contact Christine Vander Woude (ChrisVW@Pazzles.com) and/or Klo Oxford (Klo@Pazzles.com) with questions about the virtual courses.
Can’t attend? Check out the Fundamentals section of the tutorial video library. Almost all of our video tutorials are under 10 minutes long so you can master new skills quickly and at your own pace!
It will not let me click on either of yours emails. I am having out patient surgery Thursday A.m. should be okay . . . I know that would be short notice for cancellation?
This Pazzles Virtual University is a great idea. I can’t wait till you have a more advance virtual retreat.
Deborah, the email address clicking will open your email program like Outlook if you have one installed. If you use Hotmail or something like it, you might have to copy/paste. Sorry for the inconvenience. I’ll let Chris and Klo answer your question, as I’m not sure. Feel better!
Can you tell me how this “retreat” will be different from Klo’s classroom? I need more information before I can commit $100 for this. I read that the video will not be added to the craft room, but will the video be available to those paying the registration fee and for how long?
Thank you.
The University will be more directed towards learning, completing and creating projects. There will be instructions, files, door prizes and more. The video’s will be available for a short time to attendees.
With two instructors, it is going to be different from the classes, as there will be time for us to work with you individually, if needed. It will be more hands on and very focused on learning the basic beginning skills that will help you become a more intermediate user.
I am very excited about the things that we are planning and look forward to seeing as many of you as possible at the University.
Thank you, Klo. Will the instructions be downloadable as a PDF or similar file? And how will the “individual” instruction work? Will I need DSL or will dial up internet connection work? Thanks!
Are you able to watch the Live Classes okay on your computer now? You will want to use whatever internet connection you use for that, because we will be streaming live.
Instructions, files, etc will be downloadable, most likely in the PDF format.
We have breakout classrooms that allows us to work one and one with student, plus we have some other options, with camera’s, etc to be able to help. We will adapt as necessary to make sure we are able to help you as needed.
great concept! looking forward to more adventures of this type
I would like to see what is included in the beginner vs the advanced- can we get a sneak preview of the projects?
thanks
I need to figure out how to do this! Having Friday night and Saturday night off now will make it feasible. I too would like to know if recordings will be available after the weekend for refreshing.
More details arriving soon! Klo and I have been very busy bees lately and we are so excited about the new ideas for teaching that we will be introducing.
Margaret, we won’t show you the projects since they are exclusive to those who attend. They get all the cutting files and instructions for the projects and having that exclusivity is a perk of attending.
In the near future we will list some but not all of the skills we will be teaching. For Klo and I this is a work in progress right up until we teach it. We try to gauge the type of group we have and modify to meet their needs.
