Nancy, Trina, Susan, Loll, Christine (our generous hostess) and Darnell (Dolly) posing
for Alex in Christine's beautiful garden.


Christine's pretty stenciled leaves!

We were all laughing about something:-)

Christine showing her beautiful stenciled leaves and sponged sample.  Hammy watching!

Christine's sweet Tika!

Susan sponging her Tag sample.


It takes lots of supplies for 6 crafting girlfriends.



Susan showing her beautiful sponged, stamped and Heat Embossed tag to Nancy and Dolly.


Loll applying Embossing paste thru Stencil.


So pretty and even prettier after adding a shimmer spray!


Dolly and all of us loved Loll's beautiful stenciled tulips!


Now Dolly's turn to stencil. Hammy is making sure she does it Right!


Adding Dreamweaver Embossing Paste.   Hammy said, "Oh No,  You are covering it all up!"


Whew, no worries Hammy...Dolly's project turned out beautifully!


Hammy still can't believe Dolly's card turned out!



Nancy begins her sponging thru a stencil project. 
An earlier, sponged sample with Magical's sneaked into photo.  Wish you could see the shimmer.


My Distress inks are looking so pretty.


Now to turn my flowers into a finished project when I get home:-)


My favorite underwater Alcohol Ink piece that I did finish into a card at our retreat. Here it is...


Cute Trina is a very accomplished stamper and helped bring our average age down:-)


Trina using Dreamweaver EB paste over her sponged stenciled image.


Trina lifting her beautiful piece off the board very carefully, so the paste does not smear.


Trina's Gorgeous stenciled flowers covered with EB paste.  You also get a sneak peak of her beautiful Alcohol Ink
samples and underneath all the samples  her galaxy sample,  which were both techniques earlier in the day :-)


Thank you so much Alex for quietly going around taking pictures while we were crafting. 
Thank you for the wonderful Memories!

Alex is Loll and Gord's son-in-law and very talented..

Enjoy our 2018 Retreat dear friends.  Hugs...
