Scrapstar Retreat in Leeds.

What a fabulous weekend I had at the Scrapstars retreat, never laughed and ate so much, did manage to do a little bit of scrapping between talking, eating and laughing. It was not such a good start to the weekend, I set off from home to Alicante airport to be told my flight had been delayed by 3 hours, not alot I could do but just sit and wait, finally I boarded 3 hours 20 mins late, got to the Hotel in Leeds just in time for the first class. The classes were amazing, there were six class, Kirsty Wiseman, Lida De Witte and Jolanda Meurs from Holland and the lovely Emma Trout. I am still putting finishing touches to my projects and will post as soon as I complete them. The weekend was so much fun and to top it off, I spent it with some very lovely people who I can call very dear friends. Here are a few photos of our weekend:

This is my take on the sketch over at My Creative Sketches. I loved the sketch and all the layers, and when I received my new monthly kit I simply fell in love with the papers, the colours and all the fabulous embellishments. Here is the sketch I used.

I hope you enjoy and thanks for taking the time to leave comments. Many thanks.
