This will be a long one!!! (Weekend Retreat pics)

Hellooooo..... glad to be home and very tired! As usual I packed way too much stuff and most of it is still sitting in my car waiting to be hauled back in the house. But I got some stuff done while away... yay! Most of the layouts still need journaling 'cause I'm so bad at getting that part done. But to my defence, I forgot where I packed my notes, like dates and stuff. I'm not going to go into great detail on each picture because that would take too long, so here goes...


This one is a work in progress... it will possibly be for an upcoming workshop. I forgot that the red cardstock tends to bleed when I emboss with white, so I will have to come up with another idea for that. Actually, while typing, I just figured out what I'll do... LOL.


Another upcoming workshop done with the new Notebook papers. I love this layout and the fact that you can just turn over the blue B&T paper and it has pink with black polka dots on the other side to use for a girly layout.


This is a lift from a layout that I loved so much, done by Jennifer Jordan (another CTMH sistah). I still have the journaling to do in the white square block.


I love how this one turned out. We have such beautiful blue skies in the winter here. It may be cold here, but it is so pretty with the snow sparkling in the sun.


This layout is a total lift from Reflections. I loved the Mexican feel of the orange B&T with the picture. We went on a holiday with our BFFs to Cabo San Lucas way back in either 1998 or 1999 (have to look that up) and I took this picture while there. This was our first trip to Mexico.


I won a prize at the retreat and one of the items I got was a fabulous Making Memories Kraft multi paper pack that I fell in love with. I just had to create with it and made the next 3 layouts using papers from it.

Great work once again Vicki!

So, what is it you're going to do about embossing on the Cranberry cs? I've never tried it, so I didn't know about the bleeding. How can I avoid it?
