What's a Scrapbook Retreat?

Hello crafty friends!!

As I start preparing for my Spring Retreat I can't help but start to feel a bit giddy! There is much to do but the excitement is wonderful motivation!! For those of you that have never attended a retreat, let me take you to one!!


First, they are called "Scrapbook Retreats", but that honestly is a bit misleading. You will understand that in a minute. Scrap camp is a place to go to work on your scrapbooks right?

Well, yes! And no!

You pack all your crafty supplies, some comfy clothes and load your car leaving just enough room for yourself in the drivers seat!

And you head to your Happy Place. 


Here you will have a comfortable place to lay your head at night, have all your meals prepared for you and have more than enough space to "craft"! You might indulge yourself in a massage or have a pedicure. You might take a yoga class or have a REIKI treatment! You might just RELAX! What?!!

These retreat weekends are for scrapbooking. Or for card making. Or for Quilting.  For your favorite anything!


 There is a store set up on the off chance you didn't have room in your car for that extra tape runner refill!!

But these weekends are so much more!!

They are FRIENDSHIPS....old and new!!

       




The relationships that are made here are forever. You see, we share more than our love for crafting. We share struggles, we share joy, we share loss. We share LOVE!!

We share a Sisterhood!

These weekends are about sharing and trying new things!





These weekends are about eating too much!! They are about singing and dancing! They are about being silly! They are about crying and then laughing so hard that you wet your pants!! 



They are about staying up so late that you will lay where you land! 


They are about celebrating each other! Our accomplishments, our special moments in life!



I know life can be crazy and busy and frustrating! I know it is hard to leave your family and your obligations and to justify time to yourself. I know that struggle is real! But, I have learned that if we don't take care of ourselves, we can't effectively take care of anyone else!

Following a retreat weekend,I had a friend tell me that she went home from the retreat and her husband actually asked her, "what do you do at the reteats? Because whatever it is, you need to do it again!"
She had come home refreshed, relaxed and happy! 

So...I encourage you to grab a friend and JOIN our SISTERHOOD!





As these retreats are about LOVE!! 
They are about sharing your CREATIVITY, your INSPIRATION and your FRIENDSHIP! 

Happy Scrappin' my friends!
