Congratulations, Hedye- our Fall 2017 Queen of the Crop!

Queen of the Crop!

One of the optional drawings we have during our weekend retreats is our Queen of the Crop (QOTC) drawing. The winner of this receives their registration paid in full for the next retreat and also get some fun perks as QOTC including early check in and a customized goody basket.  Lisa, our Spring ‘17 QOTC, let us know that she would be working on photos from her Alaska vacation and also her Christmas album while at the retreat so we went to work and created custom titles and borders for her to use on her pages.  We also included paper, stickers and other fun items along with her favorite snacks and other refreshments.  What type of items would you like to find in your custom QOTC basket?

We ♥ Natalie the Embosser!

Natalie will be back for our March 16-18 2018 weekend!
