We live in hope something will be done to keep it open and I am going to make the most of this wonderful place while I can!Sandiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12558786621283350776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3339699185293528077.post-4116158009862205572011-11-01T21:53:07.675+00:002011-11-01T21:53:07.675+00:00Hi, thought I'd pop across to your blog as I o...Hi, thought I'd pop across to your blog as I often catch sight of you on Moira's! Glad to hear Belstead went well. I'd heard it was closing but that can't be the case if you are booked for February. I was amused to read how you wanted to stroke the paper rather than use it. I feel that way about a wonderful tube of bright pink paint I once bought...Sandra Rowneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00636482534635721963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3339699185293528077.post-42988806819997562402011-11-01T19:23:25.861+00:002011-11-01T19:23:25.861+00:00It was great to see you again at Belstead Sandie.....It was great to see you again at Belstead Sandie...you worked really hard and made some lovely projects.

I like the cutting up and recombining papers to make news idea - that might shift a lot of stuff out of my paper containers!alexahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03789464804911391774noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3339699185293528077.post-82523072110712868692011-11-01T13:24:41.339+00:002011-11-01T13:24:41.339+00:00That sounds an interesting idea, Sian.

Friends at my crop go away and use prepared kits and papers. As I am not a scrapbooker I prefer Moira's residential as she likes to upcycle, design her own papers, and is experimental. There's not a design paper or embellishment in sight and I know that wouldn't suit everyone, but I love this approach.<br />Choose carefully and you won't go wrong. You will be guarenteed a great weekend and new friends in the making. I'm already looking forward to my next retreat!Sandiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12558786621283350776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3339699185293528077.post-75276112533469592532011-11-01T12:37:58.072+00:002011-11-01T12:37:58.072+00:00It sounds like a lot of fun!

That's nice for cards.<br /><br />One of these days I will bite the bullet and book a place on a retreat..Sianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01764280029794453933noreply@blogger.com
