I am off to a luxury scrapbooking retreat with Nic Howard and Kelly Goree now so will check back on Sunday to see how you have all gone.

Nic Howard is our own Making Memory Master and multipublished Icon of NZ scrapbooking both here and overseas. Kelly Goree is a designer at Basic Grey and is also an icon of scrabooking in the US ..Im very excited to meet her and be in two of her classes. Im also doing one of Nics and am really looking forward to that as she is a laid back and a fantastic teacher. Even though I would put myself as an advanced scrapbooker ..I still like to go to a class every so often and be taught by someone else. I appreciate the time and effort they give out to teach me ..and I like to give some feedback .. like I like to get (and do regularly ..thanks to my scrapbooking ladies) Im sure Im not going to be disappointed. I went to this inaugural retreat last year and felt so spoilt!

Cant wait!
