We have so much fun at our Scrapbooking Retreats!
Some people ask us, What are Scrapbooking Retreats?
Scrapbook retreats are just big slumber parties for women who love to scrapbook or make crafts with no interruptions. Groups of girlfriends get together in one spot to laugh, chat and enjoy a little "me" time. They work on scrapbook albums, creating cards, decorating picture frames and any other specialty craft they enjoy. The day parties are usually ten to twelve hours of non stop scrapbooking, with the occasional break for a snack. The weekend retreats are forty-eight hours of non stop scrapbooking with a little bit of sleep in between. The best part is you can leave your supplies out and just pick up where you left off. Don't forget the unlimited snacks and drinks and dinner included for Saturday at our Weekend Retreats. We all know it is hard to get any of our albums completed when we are at home, and it is always more fun when you can experience it with friends. And for the beginners that just want to get started, please come and we will help you every step of the way.
Some of the things we do at our crops. Play games, win raffles, door prizes, laugh, eat, talk with friends, loose sleep. Well the loose sleep part is optional, but usually we crop till the cows come home!
I have compiled a list of games that you can play at a Scrapbooking Crop.
1. Grab bag game: Everyone gets a bag full of different embellishments. They then have to use all the embellishments on a layout. When finished, vote on a winner.
2. I'm "Scraptabulous" : This game whenever someone finishes a layout, card, etc. They yell this out and pass the traveling "S" around. Whoever is holding the "S" when the timer goes off wins a prize. (You can use anything as the traveler)
3. Scrapbook Bingo : Make a bingo card that has all different types of embellishments, and ideas to use on a layout or card. Whoever finishes bingo first wins a prize.
4. Page Theme Game: You write down a few page topics ....like a person wearing sunglasses, a trip to the zoo, someone at the pool, snow day, etc. Whoever can show you the most pages on each topic wins a prize.
5. Tool Time: Everyone holds up a specific crafting tool. Draw a tool name out of a bag and whoever is holding that tool up wins a prize.
These are just some of the games that we play at our retreats. We always have a great time and win lots of great prizes.
Hope to see you at one of our future crops soon.
Happy Scrapbooking!
