I've "Pimped" my blog, and day 2 at GoGoLand

Hi all,

I hope you like my new style blog, a big thanks to Vicki Parker for her help in getting it up and running, I had order the template weeks ago, but has usual was getting myself so confused I just didn't get round to setting it up, so this weekend Vicki helped me, for which I'm so grateful.

Right now for my 2nd day at the Retreat, doing 4 full packed classes.

Class 3 - designed by Helen, has it was pink and of a girl theme, I chose photos of me, using a 8 x 10 photo and loads of smaller ones. I do know I've said it before but I turely don't know how they come up with all these wonderful ideas.

Here are the papers before.

Class 4 was Sam's class, which involved embossing and had a very urban/grundy feel to the pages.

Class 5 was Nicola class, a modern twist on vintage.

I have two more classes still to do on Sunday, but so far the weekend has been great, loads and loads of laughs (you know me), a unexpected power nap, great inspiration both in the classes and the crop room, an amazing shop, and yes, I keep going back and finding things that I've missed the previous time - LOL.

I've taken some more photos but will load next week. Just one from Saturday. Cassie and Sheena, met Cassie at the Nuneaton Crop last year and spent some time with her at their Retreat, so it was great to meet up again.

I've been asked if I've booked for next year and the answer is YES, YES, YES even though I hope to be going more 'out and about' learning new things, and I know you all think that I spend far too much time 'out and about' I just cannot resist the pull of GoGoLand - ROFL.

This one is my 3rd retreat with Scrapagogo and each time they have got better and better, so to my mind they can only improve. The choice of classes and the attention to details is outstanding, and nothing seems to be too big or small for them to sort out and make your time enjoyable, so as far as I can see I will continue to attend the Retreats, workshops and even visit their crops and learn and get some great inspiration from some amazing girls.

I have thank them in person and I know they read my blog, so I will say on here a big, big thanks you, you are great, keep up the good work.

Right better get some sleep.

Thanks for stopping by ...
