How fun to have this annual get together! A little jelly here .... 😊
Gorgeous cards Loll, the girls will love them. I am so envious of your retreat meeting up with friends. We used to do this when I lived in Darwin over 15 years ago, 20 or more stamping ladies for a whole weekend just stamping, making cards, sharing our goodies, nowhere near as technical as today. Roughing it at an old farm stay in the stockmans quarters, for all hours of the nights.. I miss this, I believe they still meet up a couple of times a year for a day. So have a absolutely wonderful time, and with four more of your friends ... whoopie, so much creativeness happening, say hello to them all, hugs Robyn
Beautiful cards and oh what fun it sounds like y'all had. [Bunny]

What sweet and pretty note cards you made for your retreat buddies Loll, and I'm sure they loved them. I know you will be having a great time and I looked to see were Crescent Beach is and see it is in a district called Surrey which coincidentally is the same name as the county I was born in here in the UK. x
Oh how I miss everyone! Had such an AH-MAZING time! Your note cards are beautiful, Loll... so proud to have received one of them. xx
