Trip photos of London & Norway


I thought I'd share a few photos of our trip to London and the Norway cruise we just returned from.  The cruise was this year's Incentive trip courtesy of Stampin' Up!  There were over 300 achievers on this trip: I am so proud to be one of them! To stay within direct sales compliance I need to add that this milestone is not typical for Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators. Fewer than 1% of demonstrators actually achieve this extraordinary result.

We spent a few days in London before starting the cruise to Norway.  

The first day we did a food tour in Soho, London. We love doing food tours – besides tasting local favorites we learn a lot about the area from our guide.  I highly recommend doing one when traveling.  

This is Chinatown in London. 

We had a steamed bun filled with barbecue pork inside.  It was really tasty and so unusual!  

Our last stop was for desert.  These are lemon twists from a local patisserie.  The outside is white chocolate. So delicate and yummy. 

Below is a huge tiled wall of the history of Soho where we toured. 

 

The next day we did a personal tour of London where our driver took us anywhere we wanted to go.  My friend Dawn Olchefske and our husbands enjoyed a relaxing drive all over the city.  Below is Big Ben. 


This is our driver, David.  He let me sit in his black cab for a photo.  The steering wheel was on the right! 

One of our favorite things was a gondola ride in Olden, Norway.  

I am not a fan of heights but for some reason this didn't bother me. We traveled up the mountain over 1000 feet in just 5 minutes!  Here's a view of us at the top: 


This was one of the many, many waterfalls we saw while cruising the fjords in Norway.  It was amazingly beautiful! 

We had a wonderful time on this trip – seeing the sights, visiting with our friends & being pampered! We are very glad to be back home.  But we miss the food we didn't have to cook ourselves and the room steward who cleans our room each day!

Back to reality!

  • Another Boho Medley card


    Here's another pretty card featuring the Boho Indigo Product Medley on page 9 of the annual catalog. See it here online.

    Details:

    1. I stamped the greeting from the medley onto a scalloped rectangle from the Stitched So Sweetly dies. Then I added a few die-cuts from the Medley in Misty Moonlight & Granny Apple Green.  
    2. I colored the rhinestones with a Light Navy blends marker.  The designer paper strips are 3" wide by 4 1/2" long and punched with the Banner Triple punch. 
    3. The Misty Moonlight layer is 3 3/4" X 5" in size. I added a 3/4" X 4 1/4" Granny Apple Green strip of CS across the back. 

    The Boho Indigo Product Medley comes with a whole bunch of products all in one box including stamps, dies, beautiful designer paper in 6 X 6" size, textured card stock, die-cuts, ribbon and paper/bead flowers.  The colors are Misty Moonlight, Night of Navy, Vanilla, White, Garden Green & gold. 

    If you purchase this Medley in July you'll earn a $5 coupon code to redeem in August. Yay for Bonus Days!!

    There's even a refill option (without the stamps, dies & ribbon) but it is on back order until mid July.  It includes the papers and the flowers.  See that here. 

    I'll share another project from this product medley Monday!

  • Boho Indigo meets the Rectangular Postage punch!


    The Boho Indigo product medley is beautiful!  Check it out on page 9 of the annual catalog or click here.  

    The medley comes with a whole bunch of products all in one box including stamps, dies, beautiful designer paper in 6 X 6" size, textured card stock, die-cuts, ribbon and paper/bead flowers.  The colors are Misty Moonlight, Night of Navy, Vanilla, White, Garden Green & gold. 

    There's even a refill option (without the stamps, dies & ribbon) but it is on back order until mid July.  It includes the papers and the flowers.  See that here. 

    I decided to use the Rectangular Postage punch for a quick, pretty card.  See it here. 

    The colors are Misty Moonlight, Seaside Spray & White.  The Misty Moonlight pieces are textured with the Meadow Moments embossing folder. The greetings are from the Fancy Phrases stamp set seen here. I used the Tailored Tag punch for the front greeting.  That delicate flower on the greeting is included in the Product Medley AND the refill for it.    

    Measurements:

    • White card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
    •  Seaside Spray 3 1/2" X 4 3/4"
    • Misty Moonlight 3 5/8" X 4 7/8"

    I'll share another project from this product medley tomorrow!
