MariJ Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 This retreat is a lot of fun, but I especially like the get togethers! I also really like how gorgeous the scenery is and it doesn’t ever get too cold. I really enjoyed the hike as it wasn’t too long, but I saw a UNICORN in the distance, oh my! ? But, I had magical dreams last night, maybe that’s why? I’m working on a layout and will post it soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Florida granny Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 Here's my Layout #5 Backyard Bunny. I really meant to go on the hike. I really did. However, I got as far as the back lawn and the sun was shining and I was feeling sleepy and... well, when I woke up, the only animal I saw was a little bunny.

alsoarty Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 You know I liked the hike, seriously! My feet hurt a lot now, as I had to run away from the animal that was chasing me... was it my imagination but I could swear it was a dragon?

Jane in N.Z Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 Well after all that food and drink we had last night I stopped for a rest on the hike and had a doze and thought I was seeing this monster animal towering over me and about to devour me but when I woke it was just a marmot. (have never seen one of these before my DS took these photos) I added and jumping monkey ....don't know why, looks a bit out of place must be part of my dream Marmot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boatlady Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 Wow all those weird dreams and unusual wild animals. The next task will be easy peasey. 14th Sept Which is your favourite season and why? We have two colour swatches for you today inspired by spring and autumn. Pick your favourite to use for your next layout. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Florida granny Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 This is going to be a tough choice; both of those seasons look beautiful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MariJ Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 My favorite Season is Summer! Hmmmmmm... I wonder why that’s not included? ? (Ok, rehetorical question, I KNOW I’m the only one who loves the heat!!! ) I agree with Diane, hard choice to pick between those two pretty swatches!

Marie-Christine Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 You girls have been busy whilst I've been traveling through Galicia and Asturia in Spain. Unicorns, dragons, marmots, weird dreams I missed all the fun, time to catch up and get creative ? Thanks for the wonderful color palettes Debby, difficult choice as I love both seasons!

Celestine Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 I love fall, and the colors that go with it! And the smells - wet leaves, burning wood (my mother-in-law is a HUGE fan of weiner roasts), crisp mornings....I'm smiling just thinking about it all.

Can't wait to see some photos from your trip! Meanwhile, I tried to catch a dragon or unicorn for you, but they disappeared. Or maybe it was that rum drink I had.

Ah... we don't have crisp fall mornings here in Florida, but I do remember them from living up north. And the smell of wood smoke. My favorite season!

SeeWhatSueSaw Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 I like fall best because it doesn't have the cold of winter, the heat of summer, or the mushy wetness of melting snow in spring. It has cool temperatures so you can do things outside and not get all hot and sweaty, or too cold, and it has colorful leaves to enjoy on the trees, crunch on the ground, pile up and even jump into. I do like the spring colors better, but I'll make a page with the fall colors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jane in N.Z Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 This is difficult as I enjoy both seasons but my favourite season is early autumn here as its still hot (approx 24C) but the humidity has almost gone and its fabulous for being outdoors. We don't get the autumn colour like areas further south in NZ but we still have the summer colours. Having said that I'm going for the spring swatch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikelle Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 16th Sept Add a leaf and a flower to your layout. Finish off your season colour layout. Remember your layout does not have to be about a season, just make sure you use the colours from the swatch you picked. Post your finished layout in the ScrapGirls Retreat Gallery. As for me, now that I'm back from my conference, I need to catch up on the Retreat activities - welcome to a brand new week! ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Florida granny Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 Whoever organized the trip to the spa had a great idea. I think I saw Geraldine and Marie and Mikelle and Sue and... well, I guess everyone was there! I had a delightful facial. What a lovely and relaxing retreat this is! The flower-scented lotions they used reminded me of spring. So here is my layout #6 - Spring Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
