......... where did that weekend go. Months in the planning, weeks in the prepping and two days of fabulous company and crafting has just flown by. Here we all are with (well nearly all of us) with our Time to Flourish Seasons in Time Album sets. We constructed, painted, stuck, snipped and inked our way through the weekend, used oodles of gorgeous Graphic 45 papers and had a ball. We each chose our birthday month for the papers on our stands so they all looked different. Ladies it was lovely to see you, thank you for joining me and enjoy adding all your photos to your albums. Hillary thank you for my swish pink apron and Sylvia thank you for the two gorgeous shops you'd made. Here's a few pics taken over the two days.
We're back at the Holiday Inn, Kenilworth again on 20th, 21st June for another crafty weekend. If you'd like to come along click here for more info and booking details. Our project will be an album (Clareeee style) in a box, altered in papers from the Artisan Style collection by Graphic 45. Will share pictures as soon as I've made up the sample.
Well I best hop off, get dressed and go pick up my new car whop whop. Thanks for calling by, have a lovely week and look forward to sharing some more crafty projects with you again soon:-) C

Thank you Clare for an amazing weekend. A wonderful time was had by all, and your kindness and generosity is much appreciated. To anyone considering booking your next retreat I would say go for it-you will have a great time, and even if you don't quite finish your project, you will come away with the knowledge to finish. You will also have a good laugh, and get to know other like minded crafters who are a generous bunch of people.
ReplyDeleteThanks to all the staff at The Holiday Inn, they provided us with a lovely lunch on both days,and nothing was too much trouble for them. My room was comfortable and the bathroom was spotless. I only ate breakfast at the hotel, there was plenty of choice, everyone was well catered for. Highly recommended.
Looking forward to June

It was a great weekend and my daughter and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Looking forward to the next one. the lunches on both days were very nice and there was plenty so you could eat as many profiteroles as you liked (couldn't you Clare!!!)
ReplyDeleteWe stayed at the Holiday Inn on Friday and Saturday and we were very pleased with the room. The bathroom was spotless and the shower was great, unlike some hotels where the water just dribbles out. We enjoyed the breakfast and ate at the bar on the Saturday night as the restaurant was already full. The food was exceptionally good and would recommend it to anyone.
Oh it does sound like a wonderful time was had by all!!! Ladies your projects were amazing and of course Clare there to guide you how could you go wrong!!! I am so jealous that I wasn't there, bit of a jump from Arizona in the states to the UK!! I would do it in a heartbeat if it was possible. Oh how lovely it would be to say oh yes I popped over to attend the most fab retreat hosted by the fabulous "Clare"!!!!!! It's on my list!!
ReplyDeleteLove,
Judy in Arizona
