WOW - I have gotten so many emails today.
The lodge we were at was Camp Kadesh, Christopher Lake. This is in northern Saskatchewan, Canada. The cost for the weekend includes food, and lodging, and freebies from me. IF (yep, if) have another one next year, the cost will be approx. $120 for the weekend. I would LOVE to do it again, it was so awesome, but next year I will need AT LEAST 35 people to make it worth it. Yes, no matter where you are - YOU ARE INVITED...hehehe. Start saving now and come along - mark your calendars for October 24-26 (approximate dates), and be prepared to have a relaxing time!
Now a card. All products Stampin' Up! unless noted differently.
I masked off the very vanilla CS, except the center rectangle, and sponged into it with mellow moss ink. I inked up the 5 trees from Lovely As A Tree with moss, stamped them off once, and then stamped them on the card.
I removed the mask, and stamped the evergreen over top, after inking it with my handsome hunter and chocolate chip markers. I drew some sparkles onto the tree with my Sakura stardust pen, to make it a bit more wintry. I then stamped the sentiment from Warm Words with handsome hunter.
I cut slits in my paper with a craft knife, and threaded the May Arts Olive Checker ribbon through and tied it in a not. I added this on dimensionals to some textured Bazzill Aspen CS. Both these product were from All That Scraps. I wanted it to be kinda like this card, but wanted to see what it would look like with a layer. I do like it, and may make a few more for my cards this year. Have fun, and happy stamping!!
I have always saved the last card similar to this one. It has always been a favorite, the stamp set is one of my first, and I will keep it forever and use it from time to time. Always a good man card. I would love to attend that camp. PA is just too far at that time of year for me, busy, busy, busy.

$129! That's all? Wow, that's as amazing as the picture of the place! I can't believe it's so inexpensive! You can't be making any money for yourself on that. Awesome! I hate I can't be closer to go next year, I'd jump on it!
