As I mentioned last week we held our annual Craft Mad Meet up in Brisbane during the Labor Day weekend. We had a group ladies from various part of Australia here for 3 days of crafting eating and absolute loads of fun.

After the weekend was over we consolidated all our photos and made them up into a little movie for all the ladies to keep . This year we decided to decorate boxes for them to store their CDs.  I have used CD boxes from Blue Edge Crafts, covered them with patterned paper and added old CDs and alphas. Thank you for visiting my blog.  I will be back next week with some  more photos from our weekend.

On arrival each of the ladies were given a pack with a name tag , wrist band, head band , fun sun glasses and a string of black beads . Ruth and I vamping it up :)

 We also made these place tags in the shape of goblets for each of the ladies with their initials on them . The table setting

I also made these hard hats for a bit of fun. I bought kids party hats from the variety store and added a few crafty bits and pieces and some Cuttlebug alphas .  Mandy, Ruth and I couldn't resist trying them out at the breakfast table
