scrappy weekend

so last weekend was full of scrap goodness. Kate, Becca, and i scrapped at my house til the wee hours - Becca was the last scrapper standing! (well, sitting, but last scrapper sitting just doesn't have the same ring to it.)

then on saturday morning Shelly M and i took a road trip to sisters garden. it was a fantastic fall day and we ooh-ed and aah-ed all through both houses. they have most every flavor of handmade soap imaginable, and i had a hard time deciding which one was my favorite. i decided on "fresh linen" and it smells so good i may not be able to use it!their displays of antiques, vintage, and ephemera are so striking and original. it's like taking your eyes to a feast, just absolutely wonderful.

Kate and Becca and i got together again saturday night and only scrapped for about 5 hours. we did a round robin with a layout, where you work on a page for 20 minutes and then pass it to the next person. we kept going around til the layout got back to the original person, and we ended up with a page that had everyone's touches on it. pretty cool. 20 minutes goes really fast too!

here's a page i did about the sisters garden road trip. since i didn't take my camera, i just used the bags, receipts, etc. i had fun with it.



thanks for stopping by!

Love the letters for the title... what distressing techniques did you use? Were they chipboard originally?
