Last Sunday I attended my first papercrafting Retreat. It was a full day retreat for Stampin'Up Demonstrators from WA and was a great opportunity to get to meet a whole lot of very talented ladies who I previously only knew from papercrafting groups on Facebook.
The day was very well organised by Kelly and Nicole and was a huge success. There were thirty of us altogether and each was required to design a 'Make & Take' project which could be completed in twenty minutes by other participants. We each prepared a sample and 12 kits which we put in a container with all the necessary tools to complete the project. During the day each demonstrator completed 12 Make & Takes from other demonstrators. I decided to design a masculine card using one of my very favourite stamp sets 'One Wild Ride'.
This was my Make & Take Container

Cardstock (CS): Basic Black,Basic Grey, Whisper White, Silver Foil
