T Stands For Turtle Tea Mug

Psalms 37:4-5 "Delight thyself also in the Lord; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.  Commit thy way unto the Lord; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass."

I just got back from a scrap retreat from Thursday thru Sunday.   I had so much fun, and made some new friends, and was plenty enabled for new craft tools!  We ate a lot, scrapped a lot, talked a lot, and there was very little sleeping.  Think giant 4 day  slumber party! LOL
Still  I was so happy to complete 24 layouts!  
Oh, yeah, we scrapped in our PJs!  LOL


Here is a group photo of some of them. 

Saturday night I went to bed about two Sunday morning.

You see I am scrapping our  Hawaiian cruise.  For Bleubeard & Elizabeth's  T Stands For Tuesday over at Altered Book Lover, I will show one of the gorgeous mugs I was gifted by a special friend I visited in Hawaii.


Lastly I will share some exciting news I received while I was at the Scrap Retreat! At my  favorite website, SplitcoastStampers, I was named Featured Stamper Of The Week, so I have a brand new badge on my side bar.  I am smiling ear to ear for this honor. 

Thanks for stopping by!  Have a great T Day!

You sure got a lot of layouts made. You didn't let the food, the sleep, or the talk get in your way. Seems you know how to scrap no matter where you are. Most people do more talking than making art at these get-togthers. Looks like you must have had fun, too.

Congratulations on your scrapping win. Must be a big honor. I'm truly happy for you.

Your new Hawaiian mug is beautiful. I know Lisca is going to love it. She LOVES turtles/tortoises. It's a very artsy mug, too. Thanks for sharing your four day slumberless party, your scrapped pages, and your new mug with us for T this Tuesday.

I forgot to mention, I have never shopped at Sprouts. I heard it was very expensive, so I have never even tried to find it.

That scrapbook retreat sounds fun but exhausting. I think I'd need a week to recoup after that:):) Fab looking layouts, and I love your new mug! Happy T day!

Congratulations on being named Featured Stamper Of The Week at SplitcoastStampers, Sharon!! And to get the news at the retreat where you could share your excitement with like-minded people - how perfect.

I've been looking forward to your scrap retreat report. 24 LOs in 4 days - wow!!! And they're gorgeous. I love the part about a 4-day slumber party and scrapping in your pjs.

The Hawaii mug is very special and beautiful.

Happy T-day! Eileen xx

How fun! I am not a scrapper but I think a retreat like that would be so much fun! Congrats on the feature!
Happy T day!

Lisca said...

The retreat sounds so much fun. Plus you got a lot done. I have never been on such a retreat, but would love to scrap with others.
Congratulations on being featured.
Sorry I'm late to comment,
but a happy belated T-Day,
Lisca

Kate Yetter said...

You certainly accomplished a lot on your scrap retreat. How fun! I would be so tired though. I find if I am not rested I don't get crafting accomplished. Sounds like the perfect thing to do after the children are out of the house and I have caught up in all my sleep.
Congrats on your honor from Split Coast Stampers. It is always fun to be recognized for your hard work.
Happy Belated Tea Day,
Kate
