Happy Halloween

I'm back from a fabulous weekend retreat in Canmore, Alberta!   I co-host the Canmore retreats with my good friends Noreen & Heather . . . and this past weekend we had 41 ladies join the three of us for a great weekend of crafting, fellowship & lots of laughs!   Definitely a fun time had by all!

A few pics from our weekend (all out of order as Blogger is refusing to cooperate with me this am!):
My Close to My Heart store!

The Cricut & CTMH Program Book Station!  The ladies were LOVING CTMH's Art Philosophy cartridge and kept these bugs humming all weekend!

Tool table!
The room at 3am after the last person went to bed!!  Judging by the tables - everyone had a productive first night!
Some of the Halloween fun -- TEAM CLAIRE!
More Halloween fun!  We held a costume contest "from the neck up" - the ladies enjoyed showing us their best hats, masks, wigs, etc.! Our Mad Hatter here was the costume prize winner as voted on by all the retreat attendees!
Places set!  Catalogues and goodies from CTMH, Stampin' Up! and Sharing Memories, as well as water, snacks, chocolate, postits, kleenex, pencils, goody bags from Rocky Mountain Soap company!  Welcome everyone!
 
My van - LOADED!

Back of the van - even more stuff!!

 
The room - everyone is just starting to arrive!
  

Hope you enjoyed the little peek into my weekend!  For some reason I forgot to take pics of all the ladies working hard & also neglected to get a photo of Heather, Noreen & I!   Note to self for next time!!  In any case, we have such a great group attending our retreats - I'm already looking forward to the next one!

And now I'll leave you with a fabulous little CTMH Halloween project from Jeanette Lynton:

Happy Halloween everyone! Have a great day!!  Check back tomorrow for some CTMH Blog Hopping fun with the November stamp of the month!
