Last weekend I went to the Sketchbook Retreat. I had an awesome time not much sleep (about six hours),great company, heaps of inspiration, laughs and yummy food. I sat with Megan, Annelie and Heidi with Jane and Kelly nearby. I met a few more people and saw a few I had already met and didn't shop to much (had done to much prior to the retreat)
Thanks Megan for an awesome time - you were such a busy bee making sure everything was running smoothly and your layouts you did were awesome - I love the Jumbo Photo look - I need to give it ago.
Thanks Heidi for being my table buddy and a huge inspiration source - you gave me some great ideas !! and it was lovely sending time with you.
Annelie thanks for inspiring me as well with your stunning creations and great company and helping me out with ideas too.
Jane it was awesome meeting you and having your company and talking to someone about Katie and I love the layouts I did see of yours.
Well I did 15 layouts one of which was a double and a canvas so about the same as the last retreat - page kits make it easier to get layouts done. I went through and found challenges beforehand and then made kits. I was so inspired from the retreat that I have done my design team kit of four layouts in less then two hours today!!

ReplyDeleteGorgeous work, I don't know how you do so many amazing layouts at one retreat!! My record I think was 8... LOL
ReplyDeleteWOW!! Those layouts are just gorgeous, I am in awe of how many pages you manage to do at these retreats, especially considering how much work goes into each one of your layouts. LOVE the railway track one with the Webster's pages, and the challenge pack one ... all of them, actually! Glad you had such a nice time. I will definitely be at the next one - but hopefully we will see each other before then, maybe another crop at NZ Scrapbook? ;-)
ReplyDeleteAll of them ... are works of art ... bea-u-ti-ful!!!
