The layout to the right was completed by a scrapper at the successful 2006 'Get Scrapped' Getaway. The 'Mask-erade Ball' layout session was a hit, with each attendee receiving a Heidi Swapp mask to take home. The layout kits received during each session were generous, with packets of Heidi Swapp ghost letters, rhinestone brads, chipboard letter packs just some of the goodies taken home at the end of the weekend.
An 'essentials kit' was also given to each scrapper, consisting of basic but consumable items, such as adhesive tape, ink, journalling pens, and exciting extras.
The Friday night Becky Higgins sketch challenge resulted in some beautiful layouts, with Karen taking out the much sought after first prize (despite some confusion over which sketch was being scrapped)! (Layout to the left is not the fantastic winning layout.)
Attendees were given a list of required photos and their sizes and themes. Most of the layouts completed were suited to the scrapper, with a choice of theme or colour being offered prior to the event.
Other layouts completed included 'Ribbons and Bling' (a unique layout comprising acetate, ribbon and rhinestone jewels), 'Stripes stripes stripes' (a stunning mix of striped patterned paper to create a colourful yet simple layout) and a double page tribute to Mum, in 'With Mum It's All Black and White'.
Overall, the getaway was a raging success, with many requests for another getaway to be held in 2007. Well, we didn't really have any choice but to oblige!
