Retreat Creations

One of my scrapbooking sisters is a Creative Memories consultant. Her and her fellow consultants put on a wonderful retreat each year I attend. I love the uninterrupted (well not really with all the chatting I do) time to just let my hair down and create wonderful pages to add to my albums as well as the fellowship I get to engage in with my friends.

Check out these fun LO's. I used CTMH products as well as some are CM as they give you tons of goodies to try out.

These pictures crack me up. I used CTMH stamps that were offered during a special promotion in 2012. I have to figure out what I am going to journal. Fun in the moment pics my sister captured of me being silly. 

 In this world of technology I can't seem to part with my phone. (I need to work on that). I got this cool stamp set from Unity Stamps. I thought it was a good choice to pair with this pic. I used the CTMH Artiste cart to cut out the camera film. 

 This paper is CM. I also you CTMH stamp set to create the title "Smile" as well as the camera film. My daughters smile brightens my day :-)

 I used the Lucy CTMH paper for this LO. The design comes from the CTMH Magic book. Pretty cool slider technique used which displays a picture when you pull up the tab. In a later picture you can see what that looks like. 

 CM has this cool paper that comes with a design you can just plop your pictures in. I put a spin on it to make it my own. I cut out the banner using the CTMH Art Philosophy cart and bakers twine. I also cut out butterflies from some left over Dotty paper I have (I can't get enough of this paper). I also cut out the tab using AP. My sister used her wonderful penmanship to journal for me. Nice pics of my girls. 

 Ok...so here is part ll so you can see how it looks when the slider is pulled up on this LO. Love it!! 

 I used the CTMH Workshop on the Go Kit to create this LO. Finally took some time to scrapbook a halloween page. Fun Fun Fun....

 This is the back side of the CM paper above with the "sisters banner title". Again you just plop in the pics. I jazzed it up with some bling and make a funky journal spot. 

 CTMH Scholastic paper was used to capture the Kindergarten graduation celebration of my youngest daughter last year. The design comes from CTMH's Make It From Your Heart Vol. 1 idea book. 

 I really like this LO. We were given paper and sticker embellishments at this retreat and it went perfect with these B-Day pics I took to scrap. 

I finally got around to scrapping moments at the beach in September. We had a blast. Sorry about the lightening. The big top pic was really cool it has my footprints however the lightening flash makes it hard to see. I used CTMH paper to create. 

Last but not least this is by far one of my favs..this was created using CTMH Stella paper and the AP cart to make the tab. I used CM hexagon punch to punch out all the hezagons. The idea came from the new CTMH idea book. The colors go great with this pic of my sister and I. 

Well I hope you enjoyed these LO's. I love comments so be sure to leave me some. If you have any question about CTMH products don't hesitate to ask :-)
