Yes, I'm still scrapping ...


... we'll ignore the fact that's its been over 12 months since I blogged and I'll just tell you about a lovely weekend I had in the company of my crafty friends in Circencester at the Agricultural College.

The Bloggers Weekend Retreat started after a group of ladies met on the Scrapbooking for Bloggers course run by Shimelle. I joined in their 2nd year and this is my 3rd meet up.

It's always wonderful to have some unadulterated time to sit and scrap and I'm always more inspired in the company of others.

It's become a tradition to do a round of Pass the Page in the weeks leading up to the weekend and then reveal all our pages together. Each person takes their own interpretation of a page that is passed to them before then passing on a photo of it to the next on the list. It was so interesting to see how the pages change from one to the next which you'll see as you hop through the blogs.

So you will have arrived here from Mrs Wookie's Wanderings and here's my page which I rotated but most of the elements are still the same.




Now it's time to hope onto Alexa at Trimming The Sails.

Here's the full blog list if you arrived here by chance!

Good to see that I'm not the only one who's been a bad blogger! LOVE your interpretation of the previous page - very fresh and sharp. Beautiful layout!

Such a nice version - I like how you rotated the elements and made it feel very much your own.

Lovely to see you blogging again :). And it super to catch up with you at the weekend ... This was the page that was passed to me, of course, but it's fascinating to see how it developed from Ms Wookie's page before. I can see where the border and the cluster top right come from, and the bold word for the title. I loved your page - so many ways I could have taken it!

Aah..lovely. I've been following along trying to spot the changes..Chinese Whispers always was my favourite party game. Look like the rays have moved aside on this one to make way for lots of other lovely details?

I'm enjoying following this blog hop and seeing how the Pass the Page develops! Your page is lovely, I particularly love the stars and other bits and pieces disappearing into the right hand corner! Your weekend looked like a lot of fun! Popping in from Alexa's blog as part of my 300 in 30 blog comment challenge.
