The first of Scrapbook Generation's three spring retreats is going strong, and we've had lots of fun tonight with layout and mini-album contests, although it's been hard to work them into the schedule between all the eating we've done!

I wanted to share the contest winners and their amazing creations with you! Wish you could see them in person. Many of these ladies spent hour after hour making special, personal, creative embellishments for their pages, and they deserve some time in the spotlight!

Here are the winners. I've got to get off here and hit the late night snack buffet. Karin made star-shaped brownies and guitar-shaped cookies, and about a dozen other goodies! Let's "Party Like a Crop Star!"

Spring retreat first place contest winners are front, Connie Stokes; back, Amy Roller, Carol Lumley, Martha Roy, Adene Smith. Not shown, Christine Dix.
