Scrapbook Retreat Feb. 26 - Mar. 1 2009

I was so thrilled that the spring scrapbook retreat at the Palouse Divide Lodge happened again. It never comes soon enough. I had a wonderful time despite having killer back problems and a humongous canker sore that prevented me from frequenting the snack table. I was able to whip out close to 100 pages even with my taking naps and going to bed at 11 every night. I worked on our Sister's Weekend Album, our 2008 Christmas pictures, cards and letters, the JJDP Dance album and our own personal dance album. I had a blast at our table with Jeannine, Carolyn, Heather and Charity and the rest of the ladies at the retreat.

I just took pictures of my favorite pages. I did a ton with the basic strip of paper down the side which enabled me to complete so many.

Our retreat leader and CM consultant, Debbie Kuntz, does an amazing job putting these retreats together. I'll have to bring my camera this fall to take photos of the little treats she puts on our beds and the goodies we get after each meal when we come back to our tables. She also draws for prizes regularily and I always come home with a boatload of swag. The paper on the above page is from Debbie and it fit perfectly with my little ballerinas. Debbie also has tons of papers for sale from a lot of different companies. I was proud of myself and mostly stuck with what I had in my stash and only bought 6 pieces of 12 X 12 paper. Inbelievable, given my paper addiction.
