Back from our Retreat with BoBunny, Crate Paper and Shimelle


A Trip Down Memory Lane hosted the Autumn Retreat at the Stoke by Nayland hotel last weekend.  It was a lovely weekend packed with lots of paper and crafting and lots of laughter.  I taught 3 classes (kept me out of trouble) over the weekend, so wanted to share a page from each of the class.  

My first page is using the beautiful Bella Rosa collection by BoBunny - it has gorgeous teal/aqua colours in it and was perfect for some beach shots.  We also had a play with some Pentart products like the class beads and chameleon wax.  The glass beads just add a subtle sparkle and texture, and the chameleon wax gives a shiny colour layer to the cogs on this page (we used the blue one, but it comes in lost of colours).


For this page we used Crate Paper's Bloom collection, and a few BoBunny products in there too.  We started with some of the BoBunny crackle paste and also glittered the feathers using their glitter paste.  Misting, distressing, bit of punching and some beautiful Crate Paper stickers to finish it off.


My least messy class using the beautiful Go Now Go papers from Shimelle's new range.  The background paper is one of my favourites in this pack, so I took the challenge of using a busy background to create a page, and layered up lots of the chipboard pieces from this range to scrap some holiday photos.
