Caribbean Color Scrapbooking Cruise: Trade Winter White for Caribbean Color!
I’ve been hinting about our 2028 Caribbean adventure for a while now, and I’m so excited that I can finally share all the details!
From January 8–16, 2028, I'll be setting sail aboard Celebrity Silhouette for eight nights of Caribbean sunshine, colorful ports, creative time and, I’m quite certain, far too many photographs. And I've got room for 50 scrappy friends to join me! We’ll sail roundtrip from Fort Lauderdale and visit Aruba, Curaçao and Grand Cayman, with four sea days woven throughout the itinerary.
I initially was looking at an A-B-C Islands cruise, visiting Aruba, Bonaire and Curacao because let's face it - how fun would an A-B-C themed cruise be! But the itinerary and dates just didn't work, so it was back to the drawing board. We researched other Caribbean sailings and I think this is a voyage that is even better! We still get to visit two of the islands I was most excited about - Aruba and Curaçao - but now we get to visit Grand Cayman as well!
Aruba gives us beautiful beaches, colorful Oranjestad and lots of ways to explore at our own pace.
Curaçao may require additional memory cards for our cameras — Willemstad is packed with color, character and those wonderful Dutch-Caribbean buildings!
And Grand Cayman gives us everything from Seven Mile Beach and George Town to sightseeing, shopping and more adventurous options for anyone who wants them.
But what really makes this trip special is the way the travel and creative experiences fit together.
Moments & Memories isn’t a traditional crop cruise where you pack up half your scrapbook room, bring a pile of unfinished projects from home and spend your vacation inside a crop room. We’re going to experience the moments first, and document the memories WHILE we are traveling!
We’ll explore the islands, enjoy the ship, take the photos and collect the stories — and then, on our sea days, we’ll gather in our beautiful dedicated creative space aboard Celebrity Silhouette. I’ll provide the classes, demonstrations, projects and supplies designed specifically to help you begin documenting this adventure while those memories are still fresh.

And our creative group is intentionally limited to just 50 scrapbookers. That smaller group means more space to create, more opportunity for me to work with everyone individually, and the kind of personal, connected experience I want Moments & Memories trips to be. Non-scrapbooking companions are very welcome too - they can enjoy the ship, the ports and the vacation right alongside you while you join us for our scheduled creative time.

The complete information page is now live with the itinerary, ship and creative-space details, cruise and creative fees, and everything you need to decide whether this is the right adventure for you. And mark your calendars because bookings will open Tuesday, September 8, 2026.
I can already picture us sailing away from winter, exploring those colorful Caribbean streets and then sitting together with our photos and stories spread across the table.
Explore. Create. Remember.
That’s exactly what Moments & Memories trips are all about. I hope you'll join me!
