Stampin’ Up! Incentive trip 2023 – Olden, Norway!

Good morning and Happy Saturday!  I can’t believe this is our last full day on the cruise.  😔  As always happens – time has flown by! Just about 36 more hours and we’ll be home!

On Thursday, we were in Olden, Norway – and it was a lovely, lovely place!  Very green – with snow-capped mountains encircling the charming town!

It’s always interesting to see things that I associate with “home”… 🤷‍♀️

Once again, we didn’t have anything really “planned” so we layered up – including rain jackets! – and just headed out for a walk.

We discovered there was a pretty path to follow – the sign we stopped at said it was a goat trail – and there was, indeed, oflactory evidence to support that!

At the top – we were able to view the entire valley!

There were two really pretty churches in town…

…and a sign that I for sure think is true!

On the way back to the ship – which we could see from everywhere! – we crossed a pretty stream flowing down into the fjord.  Couldn’t see any fish but..I think they were there!

We departed Olden in the afternoon and as we pushed out – we heard music!  I stepped onto the baloney and – the music was coming from the little welcome center at the edge of the pier…

There were people on the porch waving flags and cheering.  They were sending us off in style!

A little further down – there was a couple waving from their home…

 

It was really very cool!

Thursday evening we went to a show in the Studio270 at the back of the ship.  The North Atlantic was being…mischievious! (we ran into the Captain at the coffee shop on Friday morning and that was his word for it! 😂😂) … and it was a-rockin’ and a-rolling back there.  I do NOT know how those dancers danced – we could hardly walk out of the theater!  It was lots quieter a-mid ship in our cabin and we slept like babies!

And…woke up in Stavanger! Which…you’ll get to see tomorrow as we disembark and head home! 🙂

P.S. Stampin’ Up! tells me that have to let you know – that not many demonstrators earn the incentive trip – it’s actually fewer than 1% – which means my results aren’t typical!  Okay.  Done! 😉

Stampin’ Up! Cruising and Exploring the Fjords!

HappyHappy Hawwmp Day!  It’s Day 4 of our cruise and we’ve been a bit busy!

Okay – a lot of the “busy” has revolved around FOOD but – we have taken a break or two to DO and SEE some THINGS!

Our first full day was a Sea Day – and it started out with a Stampin’ Up! general session – we got a few sneak peeks from the next Mini catalog (I can’t share yet but…you’re going to really like it a lot!) AND – we learned where we’ll go for the 2025 Incentive Trip.  THAT was exciting for sure!

Stampin’ Up! A Day on the Farm Sneak Peek Masculine Card with Video Tutorial

Happy half-way-thru-the-weekend, y’all!  Hope you’re getting things done!  We ran errands yesterday – grabbing up some last minute ingredients for baked goodies – and we went to the Grand Opening of the Tractor Supply!  Last weekend was the “soft” open.  Yesterday was the real thing.  Finn got a TSC hat and  few more $5 off coupons for a bath.  He’s NOT sure that THAT is a real good gift but…gifts is gifts, right?!?…and they ALSO came with more cookies and pets and a selfie with the district rep!  So – he’s good with that…..

So my card today is a SUUUPER simple one – it’s one of my favorite layouts – I’m a real fan of angled front panels.  For this one – I used the FREE-during-Sale-A-Bration Day at the Farm DSP and the coordinating On the Farm bundle from the Jan – Apr 2023 Mini Catalog.  Take a look-see:

Stampin’ Up! Amazing Phrasing To Celebrate Everything!

Good morning and Happy Monday!  Hope you had a great weekend and that the week ahead will be easy and also peasy for you!

My card today is quick.  In fact, it’s so quick that I made three of them.

Okay – I did that because I made a Reel (aka a #short) out on Instragram for you and I borked the first go.  Not the card – it’s WAY too easy to bork.  The video.  Half the silly thing was off to the side of the camera screen! 🤷‍♀️  Old dog.  New tricks. But…I shall persevere.  Heck – I learned to fly a C-5, didn’t I!? 😎😎😎

Anywho – the card features TWO free products!  The first is a Sale-a-Bration stamp set called Amazing Phrasing.  And the second is a Host-Exclusive Product from the Jul – Dec 2022 Mini Catalog called the Celebrate Everything DSP!  Take a look-see:
