Kristy's Card Retreat

After our card making on the Gold Coast weekend Kristy got bitten by the crafty bug :)  She started buying supplies and making a few cards, then when a long weekend came up she decided to come for a visit and have a card retreat with me!  There was kits if messages making plans and sjaring photos of the new dies and stamps we had beought off ebat :)  We had 4 days of crafting, chatting and shopping - it was fabulous!

Kristy arrived early Friday morning- not bad for a 5 hour drive - think someone was excited lol We popped into a fes cheapie shops and a scrapbook shopro ouck up a few supplies, then headed down to my scrap room to play!  We started by creating 3x mixed media backgrounds.  Then sorted out supplies amd cut a few things out with our new dies.


Kristy tried on the butterfly print dress I found at the op shop - perfect fit and she loved it! So Saturday morning waa spent looking for a belt snd shoes to match - no luck for either unfortunately :( 

Saturday night was girl's scrap night!  We had pizza for dinner and had a late night card making and chatting.

Sunday we celebrated Father's Day in the morning and in the afternoon headed back to the scrap room where we had a little helper join us for a play :)



Another late night Sunday night finishing cards and more die cutting.  Monday morning was packing up and Kristy had to head home.  It was a wonderful weekend and I hope we can do it again soon!
