Hi everyone, well I’ve just returned from a crafting weekend away in the country with my crafting buddies.
I managed to do 8 layouts, and part of a quilt … yes I’ve decided earlier this year that I need to make a quilt for my son, well it got cut out, then ended up back in the back, this weekend I managed to pin and sew a few of the squares together … don’t hold your breathe for it being finished any time soon … it will definitely be a work in progress – lol.
Back to my weekend, did I say we had fun, loads to eat, loads of laughter and of course the usual silly photos.
Every time I get set to go away, I say I will not take as much stash as last time, but really I just end up throwing it all in, and hoping I hadn’t forgotten anything, always forgetting that I’m going with 6 other crafters who will no doubt have that one thing I really, really need to finish my layout – lol x
So this is the morning after our first night of scrapping, I think we had it all covered for stash – don’t you ???
We made a lovely afternoon tea
Washed down with some alcoholic beverage …
and also had to have a coffee fix …
A mini demo was provided by Julie on using distress oxide inks
And a beautiful sunrise on one of the mornings …
on Sunday, Julie made us all a yummy Roast Beef dinner …
Saturday evening was spent watching Strictly and X-Factor as well as being silly with face mask – lovingly supplied by Sam.
The following day we tried to have couple of serious group shots … as you do … but it never goes to plan at first …
Until we get our ‘stop being silly’ head on and get a couple
Cant leave us being too serious now can I, so a snapshot of me, Sam & Julie will sum up our weekend away.
Thanks Julie, Sam, Sue, Barbara, Kay, Sheena for another weekend of memories, heres to the next one.
Happy scrapping
