Annual Wenonah Weekend

It's hard to believe that just a year ago, I drove up to the Camp Wenonah's Scrapbooking weekend not knowing anyone there. Now I feel like I have a second family. I've had a fantastic time with these gals over the past year, and our recent scrapping weekend was certainly no exception. Where else could you learn the virtues of MSP, or laugh hysterically at the sound of an "electric toothbrush"? ;-)
In addition to (some of us) being reasonably productive, we also learned a new shortcut for making our own patterned paper. Ask Leanne! Simply place a glass of red wine on top of your cardstock pile. Then knock the glass over in the midst of an animated conversation. Voila! Instant distressed paper! And then there was Bingo - the photo of Nancie showin' her stuff is too *censored* to post online!
Seriously though, the weekend was almost more fun than I thought could be humanly possible. Thanks, Leanne, Violet, Mandy, Carole, Gina, Kim and Nancie! Other than the Maya Road gears album, I created 3 layouts, which I will post sometime soon (once I finish the journaling). And as for the unpacking, and putting away my scrapping supplies - well, that will happen - eventually! ;-)


I didn't get a chance to scrap this weekend, but will get my Wenonah creations posted as soon as I can. Have a great week and check back in soon!

Holly, the weekend was so much fun and your blog captured our antics so perfectly. What fun! Great shots too. The one of us on the chairs turned out to be very cool. And I love the one of you and I!

Love the album you made for Evan... it's gorgeous!

I'm so glad we met a year ago. Here's to many more years of scrapbooking together!

Cheers! Leanne
