Autumn Escape Scrapbooking Retreat

Last weekend Wendy and I attended the Autumn Escape Luxury Scrapbooking Retreat which was held at the Wairakei Resort, Taupo, New Zealand.

What a weekend!! The retreat was awesome with over 120 ladies. I participated in 4 of the classes. Tutors were Kelly Goree, Basic Grey designer from USA, Nic Howard and Rachel Tucker from New Zealand. The classes were amazing, thank you to Nic, Kelly and Rachel. I love all the LO's I created.

Nic Howard's Class ~ "Pages Like That"
Layering of co-orindating papers, distressing, clustering, clever embellishing that all come together.

Rachel Tucker's Class ~ "It's In the Details"

Intricate LO full of gorgeous detail.

Bonus LO.................

We were given a sketch with enough product and inspiration to create a second LO.

Kelly Goree's Class ~ "Design Stars"

Clean style with timeless, classic design.

Kelly Goree's Class ~ "Boys Triple Double"
