I’m home!

I’m home!  When I earned the Alaskan Incentive Trip last September, friends told me, “Be sure to take an extra suitcase for all the goodies you’ll bring home.”  They weren’t kidding!  Just look at this stash!  That’s not even including the fabulous jacket and plush blanket – both of which came in extremely handy  on cold ships and in chilly airports and planes!  

This trip was amazing in every way.   When I think back to when I joined Stampin’ Up! in December 2015, earning the incentive trip never even crossed my mind.  I only joined for the discount when ordering!  I didn’t want to teach classes.  This was a fun hobby for me, and I had no intention of turning it into a business.   Famous last words, right?  Now, I have a daily blog, a Facebook Live show every Saturday, a YouTube channel, an active Facebook Group, and more.   Most importantly, I’ve met some amazing people along the way.  

I returned home with the happy but exhausted feeling of having vacationed well.  I’m more than ready to start crafting again and in just two short days, I’ll release not one, but TWO clubs for August.  There will be my regular monthly card club and a new 5 month Christmas Card Club.  In the meantime, let’s review some July specials that will be ending tomorrow! ​​

And don’t forget about the Paper Pumpkin Special!  1st time subscribers get their first month half off!  

Join me tomorrow as I get back into my daily blog tutorials, starting with CASE-ing Tuesday.  Until then, I’ll leave you with this beautiful shot taken from our balcony of the sunset as we left Skagway last week.
