Over the weekend I had a “Get Away Weekend” with some of my team members that registered for a fun time.  There’s a beautiful home about 10 minutes from my house that we rent for the weekend and it is perfect for retreats.  Over the course of the weekend we work on what ever we feel like working on.  We each create a project for everyone else to make.  This is called a shoe box swap simply because you put all of the product and card stock needed for the project in a box.  This is the card I made for my shoe box swap.  It uses the Holly Berry Happiness Bundle and the Presents & Pinecones Designer Series Paper.
