I have news!

I'm a bit excited! Australian Scrapbook Ideas has accepted one of my LOs for publication :)

A couple of weekends ago I was meant to be at a scrapbook retreat. Unfortunately there was a problem with the booking and the retreat was postponed until June. Not to be defeated three friends and I booked a cabin at a holiday park up the road from my house (I had to drive for a whole seven minutes to get there lol) and had ourselves a mini retreat.

We even took a trip to a scrapbooking store, posed for a group photo and did a group challenge using the same key elements. These were the group photo, the birdy pp, a little chippy bird and a prima flower. Here's my take:

And yes, we're all wearing the same shirt lol. We had such a fun weekend - I laughed so much my jaw hurt!

TFSB :)
