ValerieT Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 Making friends and scrapping memories Somewhere not far from you, just past Cloud-cuckoo-land, is the beautiful manor house that will be our home for July. That’s right we are inviting you to join us for the first Scrap Girls Retreat. During the month we will explore the manor house, grounds and surrounding area, looking for inspiration to create layouts. Complete layouts and activities to gain buttons on the Daily Journal. Each button is worth one entry in the prize draw at the end of the month. At the end of the Retreat we will do a random draw and you could win one of five $5 Gift Certificates for the Boutique. You are free to interpret each inspiration/requirement in any way you wish. Do not post your finished layout until we tell you to, just in case something un-expected happens. Instructions for activities will be given in that day’s itinerary. You do not have to complete every layout or do every activity, unless you wish to. You can combine inspirations; however, you can only receive one button in the Daily Journal for each layout. Please be aware the daily journal will only be updated once a day, Monday to Saturday. If you think you are missing a button please feel free to send me a PM. Do you want a button for your siggy? You can grab the link either from my siggy or use this link http://i1076.photobucket.com/albums/w454/valerietuff3/15-07_RetreatButton.png A Huge thank you to Melanie for creating our Retreat button and Daily Journal.

CRS Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 I really could use a retreat! Travel....the first thing that comes to mind is Lauren's travel softball team, lol. But I'm sure I have tons of travel photos and it's a chance to use Laurel's recent SS Club supplies! Wonderful button and chart Ladies! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AggieB Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 Sorry, I'm a little unclear on the process. Is Travel the whole set of instructions for this layout, or will there be more? Will this be a layout a day, a week, something inbetween? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will this be a layout a day, a week, something inbetween? You will have two or three days to do each layout. Each layout will have at least two tasks, some will have more. We will tell you when to post your layout. Remember; you don't have to do every layout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
