Weekend Wrap Up

The Scrappin' Outback 10th Wave Rock Scrapbook Retreat was once again a huge success due to Karen's amazing organisation and commitment to this wonderful weekend of creativeness. Thanks Karen and your support crew of many friends and family for your hard work.

We had 3 Tutors doing 7 classes over 3 days, Lis Cassey, Lynne Herbert and myself. There was no shortage of workshops to choose from and in fact many ladies managed to do all 7 and get their own pages and projects done in between.

I taught 2 Layout classes and 1 Off the page class and all were overwhelmingly supported which was great to see. Here's a full view of my projects....











For the 10 Things layout I took over 500 photos on Friday of around 35 ladies and babies, edited them and Karen printed them off so that we could use them for the class which was scheduled on Saturday morning at 9.00am. This was a HUGE success and so much fun. Thank you to Lis who assisted me and held the "really big round silver thing" in just the right spot and then directed our ladies how to stand and where to look - SUPERB Job - I couldn't have done it without you. And here they all are....




I have seriously loved teaching at Hyden every 6 months, I have made so many friends. So it is with sadness that I have decided not to Teach anymore (for the time being), not because I don't want to, but I feel I need a break. I will still attend the retreats but as a participant, which I am very much looking forward to! I wouldn't miss it for the world. So, I will see all you lovely ladies in October!!!!!!

OK I still need to unpack so I best be off and do just that!

Great classes! Love the idea of taking the photos at the retreat for the class :) Although it sounded like you were very busy editing. Hope to see you there next time..depending on where we are.
