The Moxley Retreat

Well, I got back from the Moxley Retreat on Sunday evening and this is the first opportunity I've had to post about it.

What a brilliant weekend we all had. This has got to be one of the greatest bunch of people that I have ever had the honour to play with. Barring a couple of minor problems, everyone was friendly and uncomplaining and we all had a blast.

It was so lovely to see Martha Murphy again and to take her classes. Martha's and my styles are so far apart that every time I do one, my boundaries are pushed to the limit. What Martha can do with solid-coloured cardstock is amazing.

I would have liked to have participated in more of the classes but we spent so much time partying that I was too tired in the morning to be up for the first classes. Becky gave me a challenge - it was one of those little easel cards, so I inked it and stamped on it and it came up wonderfully. But I gave it to Becky so don't have a picture to put up.

I did work on one other piece and I'll put it up as soon as I can get a nice photo of it.
