Retreat Layouts

Earlier this month I managed to spend three fabulous day at Opal Cove creating, laughing, eating, enjoying cocktails and spending time with some wonderful friends.
I managed a number of layouts over the weekend for a few November challenges. I love having a challenge to inspire me and give me direction, for me it make the whole process so much easier!

This one was inspired by the current mood board at Scrap Around the World.




One for Scrap the Girls and the sketch challenge for November.

Stuck! had a great sketch this month too so I decided to give that one a go.

and the final one was for the Scrap the Boys challenge - Eating out.

I love the foiled chipboard in this one. I used a new product available from Scrapboutique and I love it, it comes in a range of colours and once you get the hang of it, is fairly easy to use. I think it will be featuring on many layouts in the future!

Thanks for dropping in to take a look.
