Hello lovelies,
hands up if you need a getaway, a holiday, some time just for you?
My friend, Chrissy Graham and myself have the perfect solution...a 3 day crafting retreat by the sea!
Next May we have planned a wonderful event at Cabarita Beach in NSW, where we will indulge you with fabulous crafting projects, games, prizes, a swag bag full of products from the upcoming new Annual Catalogue (released in May 2024) and there will also be time to enjoy some time out for yourself...beach walks, shopping, lazy breakfasts and even opportunites for a massage or spa bath!
We are excited to be able to offer this unique crafting opportunity to anyone who enjoys crafting in the company of like minded people, a great time away with friends or meet and make some news ones!
The best part about it is your accommodation is already booked & organised (and good value), so when you register you know there will be a bed avaliable within the complex just for you. Our crafting room, equiped with tea, coffee & snacks will be open all day & night for you to enjoy.
We will have your projects kitted up and ready for you to create at your own pace.

Frequently Asked Questions
Over the past few hours, Sharni & I have fielded so many questions. Here are the answers to the questions you might not have thought to ask.
Who can attend?
Everyone is welcome! No matter if you’re new to the paper-crafting party, an ink-slinging veteran, a scrapbook sorcerer, a mixed media maven, or a Stampin’ Up! superstar, there’s a spot with your name on it at the Soiree!
We’ve got people flying in from all over the country, and some expressions of interest from overseas crafters.
Can I find my own accomodation and just pay a retreat fee?
Wish we could shout a big “YES!” but, “NO”, we’re only offering the all-inclusive resort package this time. We want to keep things intimate and affordable, so we snagged exclusive use of the building and Pandamus Room. Let’s face it, if you book elsewhere, you’ll miss out on all the little extra touches that make this retreat extra special!
Enjoying an Adventure with Friends or Flying Solo?
Whether you’re enjoying a getaway with your friends or going solo, we’ve got you covered. If you’re with your besties, we’ll do our best to keep you all in one fantastic apartment. But if you’re on your own, don’t worry! You’ll meet a great group of new friends. Our retreat is the perfect opportunity to find your new paper crafting “BFF”.
Will I have to share a bed?
Cababreak consists of 4 gorgeous apartments, where every inch is designed to make you feel relaxed! Each apartment comes with four bedrooms, with two of them being twin share. But what does that even mean? Well, it means you and your partner in crafting crime get to have your own personal space, with comfortable single beds to call your own.
Plus, every room boasts its own bathroom – no more waiting in line for the shower! And if your roomie is taking forever, don’t worry – there’s a backup powder room in the hallway. By the way, every bedroom has its own security code, which gives you the option of locking it whenever you leave the apartment.
Can I have a room to myself?
Yearning for some solo time? We get it, and we’d love to grant your wish for a private room, but we have to be honest, our options are limited. Since we need enough retreaters to cover the costs, we only have a few rooms available in each apartment. But, don’t let that discourage you! We’ll move mountains to try and make it happen, although we can’t promise it. Let’s see what we can do!
Is there off-street parking?
Good news! There are two options for you to park your car off the busy, main street. Both options come with video security to ensure your vehicle’s safety. We will give you more details closer to the event.
No PayPal?
No PayPal? Not a fan of electronic banking? No worries! Give us a ring,
Chrissy on 04 033 2423 or Sharni on 04 1708 7448, and we’ll put our heads together to work out a mutually agreeable solution.
We do welcome Direct Debit Payments if this is more your style...you can pay Chrissy directly (here details are below), or though me....

Can I transfer my retreat registration to my friend?
Oh no, you can’t make it? Don’t worry, we’re happy to consider transferring your spot to a friend. No promises, though. We’ll take it on a case-by-case basis, but we’ll need to act before we print your personalised retreat materials. Let’s chat and see if we can find a solution!
Cancellation Policy
We understand that sometimes, things don’t go according to plan. If you need to cancel your reservation, here are the details of our cancellation policy:
Cancel before February 11, 2024, and we’ll refund your payments, minus the $100 non-refundable deposit.
Cancel before April 7, 2024, and we’ll send you your Soiree swag, but the $100 non-refundable deposit will be deducted from your accommodation fee of ($415), which we’ll refund.
Unfortunately, if you cancel after April 7th, we won’t be able to offer any refunds, as we’ve already paid for the accommodation and other retreat expenses. However, you’ll still receive your limited edition Soiree Swag in the mail after the event.
We hope you got your answers here.
