Senz

Well, I'm home from Senz which was a bit disappointing. Not many retailers and not many scrapbook classes ...... certainly that I thought would be could. There were a number that I knew would be over the top and totally not for me. However, I won a class from Artfullcrafts which was great but a bit ott for me.

Then I went to a Cuttlebug card class which was great but I think I had hoped I would get cards that I could repeat at home quickly

The same applied to the Cards for Men class - I will never do a guitar card like that one myself!

I also went to a Slice class with a view to buying one. If I didn't have a cutting machine, the hands free Slice would be fantastic but my WishBlade is better. However, I did have the title for one of the l/os I did cut for me on the Slice and I was pleased about that.

Not much shopping but I did buy some lovely felt birds and the felt cats looked just like Sally so of course I had to have them!

On the Friday night we went to the Scrappin' Patch crop which was great because I met quite a few people I only know online. Also met up with Mandy who lives in Wellington but I hardly ever see her! I did a few l/os one of which I can't put up here. The other one is a bout Speckles, Colin's cockatiel who very sadly died in Colin's hands the Wednesday night before I left. The title is cut on the Slice (at the class) using some almost reflective paper to represent the mirror that Speckles loved so much. I really miss that bird chattering to me! Then, on the way home I took a few photos out the plane window which aren't stunning, however, the view really was! The snow covered mountains:

Wellington harbour: And of course there was my room mate Irene, and Katrina who shared our wine and dinner on Thursday night! Great evening

I hear that next year Senz will be in Auckland which I may go to depending on my SIL's nieces!
