I’m Back…….

Oh my goodness, time has flown by.  I am so sorry I haven’t posted — was dealing with jet lag last week.  Our trip to Rome and the cruise to the Greek Isles was fabulous!!!  I’m going to start a little slow with blog posting again.  I want to share just a few pictures with you today and then we’ll get back to stamping and a few Holiday Catalog sneak peeks.

Rome Italy
Here is my sister Tina and her husband Dave along with Tony & I.

Tony arranged for a private driver for the four of us to tour Rome and see the city lights at night.
We had so much fun together and the driver was amazing.
I loved it because he took us to his favorite spots in the city.

Rome Italy
Isn’t this view just gorgeous.
We could see forever from this hilltop.

Rome Italy, Circus Maximus
This is Circus Maximus.  I love how well preserved things are that are so old.  Such a pretty site.

Rome Italy, Water fountain
Our driver told us there are over 3,000 water fountains in Rome.

We stopped at this fountain so he could show us how the fountains work, there are no handles and the spout
points down.  We each took our turn at figuring out how to drink from the fountain and Dave finally figured it out.  Here is Tina taking a drink — you put your hand over the spout and the water comes out like our water fountains — pretty cool.

Royal Caribbean, Jewel of the Seas
We spent Friday and Saturday in Rome and then Sunday morning we headed to the ship port.
Our cruise was on Royal Caribbean Jewel of the Seas.
We toured the Greek Isels — Santorini, Mykonos, Athens and Katakolon.

Mykonos Greece
Tony and I are having a little lunch in Mykonos, Greece.

I’m not the adventurous eater, Tony is.
He has stuffed calamari (yuck).
Guess what I had to eat — chicken skewer and french fries (yup, that’s me, plain and simple).

Stampin’ Up! had a General Session for us on our first sea day.
We got the Holiday Catalog — woohoo!!!

2019 Holiday Catalog
I am loving some of the new goodies in this catalog.
It won’t be live for a little over a month but I know you are going to love it.
I get to place my first order from it on August 1st — one of the perks of being a demonstrator.

With the great recruiting promotion going on you might want to consider signing up.
You could pre-order from the Holiday Catalog in just under 2 weeks!!!

Ok, time to get back to stamping and prepping for classes.
Come back tomorrow and I’ll share some sneak peeks with you.

Cleaning Pad, Stamp with Peggy

It looks like an ink pad but it is cleaning solution that takes off MOST of the ink from the Photopolymer stamp.  You know how they get all “pink” when you clean them.  The Cleaning Pad takes away most of that “pink” color.  I love it and I know you will too.
