Getaway

Well a busy week and no time for scrapping, so I thought I would share some layouts with you that I scrapped during the getaway last year.

July last year was the first Remember When Getaway since I took over the shop. I searched for accomodation that I thought would fit my image of what the getaway should be. Being an online store I don't know many of you, but many people I run in to who scrap have children and/ or very busy lives, so my goal was to find a place that would allow the weekend to be a real break. Peaceful and relaxing with nothing to do but scrap. So I found Noonaweena. My first reaction was the same as the girls who came on the weekend - 'Wow', 'It's Perfect', 'How long can we stay'.

So with accomodation sorted, I made sure all food would be taken care of (remember I said the only thing to do was scrap) and plenty of Bazzill was on hand...

and I was ready.

The weekend was a really enjoyable time, with a mixture of people who were brand new to scrapping through to those who had been scrapping for quite some time. The thing I love about all the people I meet through scrapbooking is how generous and friendly they are. With a group of people like this you are certainly never short for inspiration or ideas or someone to chat to. We scrapped for hours, late into the night (even though you knew you could keep scrapping the next day). There was plenty of space for everyone. So we set up on arrival and packed away reluctantly on the Sunday afternoon. There was time to squeeze in a couple of workshops and a few challenges, some freebies to give away and if you needed there was space to do your own thing as well (a bush walk, tennis, spa)

So if you would like some time to relax, meet new people and indulge yourself in someone else doing the cooking and unlimited scrapping make sure you book in to the March getaway. I would love to have you join me for the weekend. you can book through the website www.rememberwhen.com.au , by phone 0412 016 426 or emailing me at lee@rememberwhen.com.au.

Places are very limited in March so grab a friend (or 2) or just come by yourself and join me for a great weekend. I have never completed so many pages at once and below are a few of the pages I scrapped last July.

Next week I will be back with an interview I had with my 4 year old this week and a sketch challenge. Have a great week and I can't wait to hear from those of you who are keen to join me in March.
