Stampin’ Up! Incentive Trip – Papercrafts and more with Lynnzcrafters

Hello friends! Aloha! 🌺🌴🌈

We are having a fabulous time in Maui!
I start every day with a long walk on the beach. Sunday was full with meeting up with some stamping friends, a delicious outdoor brunch with all the Stampin’ Up! achievers that are here as well as staff, and the corporate team and Board of Directors.
Also lovely Hawaiian dancers and musicians as well as lots of exploring, my massage and facial were out of this world at the grand Wailea spa, walks to the shops at Wailea and did some shopping and dinner out last night at the Wailea brewery. We did not make dinner reservations in advance and Maui has just recently gone up to 50% occupancy for restaurants, so we’ve made reservations for the rest of the week now that we know what we want to do. To say this is a little slice of heaven is an understatement!

Monday was day three of our adventure, I started off with an outdoor yoga class and walk on the beach. I had a lovely talk with Shelli and Sterling Gardner (she is the founder of Stampin’ Up!) 💖
Ethan and I had a beach day. 🏝 while there we saw sea turtles swimming pretty close to the shore, of course I didn’t have my camera with me but everyone was so excited to see this big slow majestical creatures.
We also had a delicious mahi-mahi fresh fish dinner that was out of this world. And a little pool time to cool off. Paradise. 🍍🌴🏝🌺🍹💖

Stampin’ Up! has really spoiled us with so many wonderful pillow gifts, services and excursions. I am beyond thankful, grateful and blessed 💖

Will write more later. Just wanted to share some of my favorite pictures. Thanks so very much for helping me earn this trip!

Love,

Lynn

I am so thankful to Stampin’ Up!, all of my wonderful downline, amazing customers, fantastic family and friends for the opportunity to travel to Newport Beach, California for my first ever Incentive Trip! (The trip was at the end of September, and I started this blog post as soon as I got home, but then was slammed with a virus and never finished it)

My sister and I had a glorious time and really enjoyed getting to see a dear old friend from childhood. Michelle lives in California but came down to southern Cali to stay with us and showed us around. What a fantastic tour guide and chauffeur! Thanks Shell!

Sun, sand, surf, fun, biking, walking, shopping, eating, swimming, it was a whirlwind get-away weekend for sure!
Thank you all for making it possible! A highlight for me was getting to meet the other demonstrators who earned and attending this trip… especially heartwarming was to meet and take this fun photo with the ladies from the Creative Inkling Blog Hop we do on the 20th of each month!

I don’t think I’ll ever be able to earn another Stampin’ Up! Incentive Trip- they’ve upped the points to earn the next trip and since I’m not a full-time demonstrator it is just not going to happen for me, (the Incentive Trip in 2017 is to Thailand). So, lucky me, I can just do what I want, for fun! My customers received my long-awaited newsletter this morning- with my events that I have planned. I have a few openings for my Stamp-a-Stack on 10/16 at 6:30 pm, and have opened up a new Christmas card Stamp-a-stack on Election Day (two sections), and am trying to plan a Christmas Stamp Camp with my Lynnzcrafters Team for Veteran’s Day (what time would you like to stamp? trying to decide if morning or afternoon or evening would work better- would love to hear from YOU)!

Thanks for stopping by my blog today! I appreciate YOU!
