Three LO's I scrapped for the monthly challenges..........

Round 3 of Chinese Whispers at Scrapbooking 4 Less has started. I started challenge off with this LO.................

Heirloom Scrapbooking Retreat

Last weekend I headed off to the Russellea B & B just outside of Tumut for the Heirloom Scraps Retreat. What a fantastic weekend of scrapping, chatting, laughing and learning with a little sleep thrown in.

We did 3 fantastic classes. First class was 3 gorgeous cards taught by Leane who traveled all the way from Foster for the retreat.

Second class was 2 gorgeous Sassafras Lass LO's designed by the talented Tammy Leaver. Definitely outside of my comfort zone with these LO's. I done both the boy and girl packs....................

Third class, Wendy taught use how to give our chipboard that rusty metallic look. Love the effect this gives and I will have to buy some new products so I can have another go at this...............

In our goody bag, was a challenge kit. We were not allowed to add anything to the kit, but could use ink, pen, etc. This is what I created using everything in the pack........

Over the weekend with a couple of raffles we raised $107 for breast cancer.

Big thank you to Kim for organising a fantastic retreat.

This gorgeous class was taught by the talented Scrapdragon. I missed the class as it was on while I was in WA, so scrapped it last weekend. Love this photo of Emma................

Time to say goodbye..........

It was a big decision, but last week I resigned from the Design Team at Chookscraps.

Big thank you to Lorraine for giving me the opportunity to be part of the team for the past two years. It has been fantastic!

Along with this also was my resignation from the 123 Challenge Blog Creative Team, where I was representing Chookscraps. Thanks to Charm and Kaylene for also giving me to opportunity to be part of their team of creative scrappers.
