National Scrapbooking Day is the first Saturday in May. Since today was that day I'm glad I got to spend the day at Lake Barkley in KY at a weekend scrapbook retreat. I did a couple of layouts and 5 cards so far. I took a couple of nice walks today and enjoyed the woods and the lake. Lots of boats were out today, fishing boats, pontoon boats, sail boats and speed boats. It is a beautiful day and I enjoyed being to be outside and take a nice long walk. Here is a picture of the lake and another one of the lodge we are staying at. It is at a Girl Scout camp and is very nice. I wouldn't say the beds are the most comfortable in the world though! I did sleep well last night though.

Here is one of the layouts I made today. I used my new stamp set I got at the New Catalog Premiere party in Birmingham, AL Monday night. That turned out to be quite the adventure and way too much for a post that I'm putting up just past midnight. Anyway, I used the new Work of Art stamp set. It is great for backgrounds. I had fun with this layout.
I also made 5 cards today. Here are 2 of them. I used the long, narrow stamp to make a plaid background on the pink/purple card. A few dogwood blossoms from the Flower Shop card with a small flower punched from Silver Glimmer paper finishes off the top corner of the card. The second card uses a more random design and then I stamped the same colors on a small scrap of Whisper White cardstock and punched it out with the Pansy Punch. They were both pretty quick and easy. It's late so I reckon I ought to head to my bunk. Good night!
