Stampin’ Girls Retreat was awesome!

Maggie and I had an absolute blast with the ladies who attended Stampin' Girls Retreat this past weekend. The weather was a bit cold, but, the sun made it all better! We arrived Friday afternoon to set up the area. We had a full punch table, stamp table, big shot table and our ink. The ladies arrived with totes and totes of their "stash".

We had a great candy bar with personalized candy jars. YUMMY

Extremely yummy desserts and food!

We had TONS of great prizes                        &        some relaxing time cropping!

Of course every retreat has to have some silly ladies! :) There was a party going on in the dining room and these crazy ladies ran in at the perfect time and started singing at the top of their lungs….it was hilarious! What a fun bunch of ladies we had this weekend!!!  

We had such a great time and I can't wait for our next one. Mark your calendar for Oct. 1st weekend for our next Stampin' Girls Retreat! You know you don't want to miss it!

Just in case you're looking for a wonderful place to stay in Westport, ON…I highly recommend Cove Inn & Spa. Their staff were truly amazing and so accomadating to all our needs. We had a great experience there!
