Hi Stampers,

Happy Monday  friends ! 

No Card sketch day today  I believe over the 4-3/4 years

of card sketch Monday’s  I  may have missed two card sketch days,

  so today will be #3 But, I do want to share  a few photos over the next couple days from

our retreat this year which was on August 18-21st, 2022.

Like years past  this event is a highlight of the year to get together with a handful of glitter queens

  for the weekend and there is a lot of laughing , crying , hugs  and of course stamping .

The joke is my basement is  always freezing  and I’m pretty sure  it’s because it is the basement 

but,  I always tell the ladies to bring their  sweaters/ slippers , blankets etc..

just incase  they get cold  especially since my basement is always cold.

This photo above is Beth, Davette and I under Davettes lap blanket and it is seriously so soft 

and the colors  are right up Davette’s alley . 

Davette has always said  that no matter what  she will be attending our retreat every year

  and the funny thing is she’s starting to leave things here  at our house  for her  so  she doesn’t forget 

things when she comes in from Indiana.

I do believe she left this blanket  and  her  fan  has been here for a couple years now . Love it ! 

My hubby made us all bacon on our  grill and it was so yummy.

  This is us all eating the  bacon  and  he started this last year and I believe

it will be a staple now  going forward because it’s so  so good . 

This thing with my  annual retreat  is once you come you’re in  for the upcoming year unless you

  forfeit one year then your spot opens  for  someone else to come.

Stacey and Davette have been to every retreat and  next year will be our

10th year doing our Glitter Queens annual retreat. How exciting right ?

We also made 4 make and takes the  evening they all arrived  on Thursday

I was hoping to make all the cards a “theme ” but  decided to go with fun folds / and techniques

they can do for their  own classes.

Here is a photo of them holding their Make and Takes.

I have posted one of the 4 cards  while I was gone to New Orleans

  Hippo / Cow Flap card  video HERE

I posted  the

Christmas Gnome Shadow Box  Card HERE

Which ended up being my Glitter Queens Retreat shoebox swap.

Our final night we went to Bad Brads  BBQ  by far the Glitter Queens favorite

  place to  finish up our fabulous weekend together .

After dinner we  went to the dollar tree store to find those items we couldn’t live without LOL!   

Had our late night stamping event where we made a few projects  and got  the late night giggles .

I love these ladies  and I’m so very blessed to have them in my life and call them my friend !

This special  weekend every year fills my soul and  brings me so much happiness .

Enjoy your day stampers!
