Learn to Use Your ScanNCut Camp

It’s all the great projects and information from our ScanNCut course packed into one week of ScanNCut Camp!

We’ll cover a range features of the ScanNCut and CavnasWorksapce. It’s easier to remember what different features do and why you would want to use them when making an actual project, so Jennifer has curated a collection of projects across a range of crafts. You’ll create beautiful things while learning all your machine can do. We hope you’ll love all the projects but if some of them are not your style or interest, please remember you’re learning the techniques! Once you have these valuable skills you’ll be able to apply them to future projects that you dream up.

The materials you need to create each project are included in your class fee. These classes are your opportunity to try out lots of different techniques and materials to see what you like. No need to buy an entire roll of foil if that’s not your cup of tea. We’ll have a sample for you to use in class. But if you love the fusible web we’re testing out, we will have some on hand for you to purchase.
You will need to bring your ScanNCut to camp as well as any ScanNCut consumables (mats, blades, etc.) and some basic crafting supplies. A supply list will be provided so you know what to bring. You will also need to bring a laptop for hands on practice with CanvasWorkspace, Brother’s free online software for editing and creating cutting files.
The ScanNCut Camp is only open to those with a machine from the DX series (machines with an auto blade). The kit fee ($175) will include all the materials for each project and a workbook to walk you through each lesson. There is no class fee if your ScanNCut was purchased at Rae-Bon Sew & Quilt Shop. The class fee is $150 for machines purchased elsewhere.
Materials provided for each project may vary from the color or print pictured.
