Sounds like a business opportunity for someone ;)

Well, got my supplies - including heat gun, ink pads and embossing powder! There's either going to be a right mess or a fire tonight... :eek:

Plus my 8 year old got an origami kit - I'm knee deep in paper dolphins and other sea creatures. When I say - knee deep - I mean knee deep in the paper - we haven't quite figured out how to make the actual animals yet! :):unsure:

**steps out of the closet** I am a scrapbooker.

I don't do it as much these days but I have been on one of those 'holidays' you mentioned (if you can call it that - mine was a short break lol).

Last year I went away on an organised scrapbooking retreat in Bristol for a weekend. About 80 of us stayed in a 4* hotel and there were optional organised classes. Women flocked to this event from all over the UK and beyond (Ireland, France and Holland too) Many of us brought our own wine because the hotel's was expensive and in the evening there were party games. He he, I think I had more treats and little bottles of wine in my trolley then scrapping supplies (it was like a mobile mini-bar with chocolates etc) :rofl:

Scrapbooking is much bigger in the US and Canada so if the OP is looking for classes etc. she shouldn't have a problem.
