The Girls

Welcome to the Scrapbags Blog

We are a very friendly group of scrappers who meet each month in Hertford. We chat, scrap, share ideas and techniques and generally have a great crop which usually flies by far too quickly.

We love to meet fellow scrappers so please feel free to stop by and meet us (dates & location to the right), or if you'd like more details please drop me a line at scrapbags@ntlworld.com.

Sunday 7 March 2010

Wow - what a weekend!!!  After months of planning, days of anticipation and some considerable time packing the Fourth Scrapbags Retreat has come and gone in a flash and I'm sitting here surrounded by bags, too tired to do anything about unpacking.

What happened?  Chatting, shopping, eating, LOTS of laughing, and a fair bit of scrapping.  We had our obligatory group photo and you'll see that the only thing wonky here is everyone's perception. We had three fabulous classes from Scrap Revolution, I finished my 2009 album, Alison FINALLY finished her Peru project, Bethan nearly completed her A-Z, and Mary actually brought photos!  The Readly Steady Scrap Challenge produced some wonderful layouts and was won by Sheila. Surprise surprise!!! (See the Ladies who Scrap LO at the top of the sidebar). 

In the blink of an eye everyone had driven back down the drive and Diane & I were sitting in the car with my bags piled high outside the front doors waiting for Rob. 

Here are a few images of the weekend:
