Thank you

Thank you all for the lovely comments I got welcoming me back to blogland, it's going to take me a wee while to get back into the swing of blogging, a lot of my online time is taken up with work social media stuff, but I'll do my best to allocate some time to my own blog and all of my lovely followers - thanks for your support :)
So I thought it might be an idea to catch up on some of the projects I did for the recent Spring Craft Retreat at The Papeterie in Aberdeen. In case you don't know, they hold a craft retreat twice a year in April and September - and one of the things that sets it apart from other retreats is that YOU can choose whether you go for 1, 2 or 3 days, YOU can choose to take the accommodation package or organise your own. AND YOU also have a choice of classes to pick from. 
Aberdeen might seem like a long way away for some of you, BUT we have a fantastic international airport here in Aberdeen with great links to most regional UK airports as well as regular flights to and from all over Europe and beyond.
Anyway, getting back to the projects - I taught 9 classes over the 3 days, hard work but great fun and very rewarding ...
This was the Promarker Notebook, this class ran twice...
Materials:
Spiral notebook
Oyster Contour card
Diamond White supersmooth card
Tim Holtz Bird Crazy stamps
Tim Holtz Paris Memoirs stamps

Distress Inks: Crushed Olive, Gathered Twigs
Promarkers
Tim Holtz Layering Stencils

Thanks for visiting, 
I appreciate your comments,

So happy to see you're back. Love your project. I actually tried to purchase the crazy birds at Simon Says Stamp today (all TH stamps are 30% off this weekend), but they are still out of stock.

Ooh what I'd give to come hang out with you at a retreat! Your classes sound amazing Debbi and I LOVE this fabulous notebook. New Zealand is a wee bit far to travel from, but who knows, I may be over that way again some day. Love the colour blend on your notebook, very cool effect. Love those mad birdies too. Hugs, Wends x
