Not enough time...

Well I am back from another AMAZING retreat in Canmore!! I have to say I love Lorna's retreats. Really what is better than two nights in a BEAUTIFUL hotel (with the best beds I have ever slept in!!), no cooking, great friends, free stuff, and not to mention UNINTERUPTED SCRAPPIN!!!! We had such a good time. There were six of us this time and what an awesome group. Mom, Gma, Eileen, Tanya and my good friend Ash.

So this time we decided to challenge ourselves a bit. One hour....ONE HOUR....to finish a page, and to make this a little more of a challenge, we had to use a secret item! It was so much fun and it got pretty competitive. The second time around we ahd only an hour and had to use a crimper. I hadn't used one of thsoe in FOREVER!!! So it was alot of fun. However the crimping challenge proved a bit more difficult and took two hours!!

End of the first hour.

It truly was a great weekend. I didn't want to come home. I even won two door prizes!! I never win anything. None of us did!!! We all got so creative on Sunday (of course) and had to pack up. I finished 13 layouts this weekend. Which I thought wasen't that much until I spoke to others who only finished 5 or so!! Here are a few pictures of my layouts on the last day. The pictures aren't that great but I wanted to get some pictures taken before I got home and they got lost in the insane mess that is my house ( we are currently under construction!!)

Well that's all I have to say for now. OH!!!! I am so excited!! My mom and I (at her house) are hosting our own crop. The Grey Cup Crop (it's the same weekend!!) I can't wait. I love getting together with friends to scrapbook all weekend long. FUN FUN FUN!!

Ok now I'm really done!! Going to bed now.

Found these.....

I had taken pictures of some of my layouts I have up at the store a while ago and TOTALLY forgot about them.....

I am ususally not a "theme" paper kinda girl....however....this monkey paper from Daisy D's was sooo cute I HAD to use it. And look at Chloe's little monkey face!! So cute...I used to make the same one when I was little.

This is Studio 45 paper. I loved the green houndstooth paper.....Who wouldn't???? But I wasn't sure about the rest of it. I loved the ladies, but I hate the paper they were on...so I cut them out...I LIKE IT!!!!

I went to the Craft show down at the Round Up Center this weekend. It was good...Glad to see scrapbooking is making it's way in there!!!! It was good to see some of my friends in the industry and to make some new ones. I got to meet Katharina Doyle, co-founder or Canadian Scrabooker magazine, who was awesome. There were also other stores down there so it was nice to meet them to!!!!

I am frantically trying to get my stuff together for the crop in Canmore this weekend. I CAN'T WAIT!!! But seeing as we are still working on our house...my scrapbooking stuff is kind of all over.... SUCKS!!! But wow is this place gonna look good....back to scrapbooking....I still have to pick up all my pictures (from Costco, where else??) ...thank gosh i don't match my paper to my picture, so my paper is all ready to go. But that's all I planned...I am taking everything else this time.

Well I should get on with my day. Have a good one!!

Brit.

I found a new one!!!

I have a seriouse blog addiction....I was doing my daily rounds when I hit Janine Wahls Blog. While reading her new post she had a link to another blog. Naturally I checked it out.....
