Hi paper crafters! I know I have been VERY quiet. A lot has been going on in July and the first part of this month. I needed to step back slightly and take care of family and my Inn first.. but I have been stamping behind the scenes when I can. I just have not been blogging. Its hard to do it all – I have a lot on my plate lately. I’m trying though!

So, as you know, I ventured off to Phuket Thailand for the Stampin` Up! Incentive Trip. The only way I can describe this trip: amazing! My good friend Bernice was my travel buddy! We had a lot of fun!

I did things outside of my comfort zone (snorkeling).. and I was touched deeply with the Elephant Sanctuary. I was adventurous on a kayak through the caves on the ocean.. and seen Phi Phil Island. We had lunch on a private island. I used the resort pool! Yes, I actually was in a swim suit – first time in YEARS! I even tried out the pool bar – ordering Shirley Temples and enjoying my new favorite.. coconut water in a coconut! It was just awesome and I cant thank Stampin` Up! enough for giving me this opportunity!

I think pictures say so many words.. AMAZING! So much fun! I made some new stamping friends.. and got to see so many friends I havent seen in a while. Take care, Thailand.. I loved my stay and I hope to someday return! Thank you, my amazing stamping friends, for your loyalty and supporting my business. I love what I do and I love sharing it with YOU!

Ill post more soon!!
