Creative Craft World Scrap Map Challenge

Today I am posting my layout completed for the Creative Craft World scrap map challenge for March.

I did the page while I was on our recent Bijoux Belles retreat - did I mention that I had been retreating??! We had such an amazing time - scrapping, chatting, eating chocolate and cakes and drinking wine :)

Anyway...

Here is the sketch
and here is my page


The photos are of Nick at The Eldridge Hotel in Lawrence, Kansas. I was visiting for Thanksgiving last November and we had gone in to see James, who was working on the front desk, before heading out for a spot of lunch. In their reception area was this GORGEOUS Xmas tree ~ so I said to Nick "quick go and stand by that so I can take a photo". Needless to say he was rather reluctant but, as evidenced by the photo, he did go and I did get a photo (or two!!)
The papers I used are Carta Bella "Christmas Day"
