This is not the best picture, it is a bit on the dark side. (Sorry!)

This was the 1st project at this year's Annual Retreat!

Can you believe that this was our 5th year?

We all had a great time!

This project is a 6x6 recipe card!  Garden Green, Whisper White & Real Red cardstock were used.

I was going for a more, old world, vintage look. So we used Crumb Cake, Sahara Sand and Soft Suede inks.  I chose the Very Vintage Wheel, Sense of Time stamp set and added just a few of the large swirls from the Priceless set!

We were all to bring an Italian Recipe to exchange! Now I have some new recipes to try!

The night's dinner was themed "Little Italy".  We had Spinach Lasagna, salad and Garlic Bread! Yummy!

Then we headed over to Cabin #6 to start stampin'.

I will be posting the projects and some fun highlights from this years event throughout the week!

(It was a late night!  We did manage to get to bed by 2:00 AM!  Lots of giggles going on in our cabin!)
