I've been home for a few days now but my body is still on Hawaiian time! We had such an incredible vacation in Hawaii. I just can't begin to tell you how wonderful it was. We spent the first four days in Oahu, our hotel was right on the beach in Waikiki. We then went to Kauai, where we had a condo by a gorgeous beach in Poi Pu. We spent the last week on the Big island with Stampin' Up! at the Waikoloa Resort. The resort was absolutely gorgeous and Stampin' Up! treated us all like royalty.
I will be sharing some photos over the next few days. I really didn't take as many photos as I should have, but hopefully you will enjoy the ones I share with you.
I thought I would start off by sharing some of the wonderful gifts that Stampin' Up! gave us demonstrators. There were 416 demonstrators that earned this years incentive trip out of about 50 000 demos across the US and Canada. I am so honored to be a part of that group!
Stampin' Up! has a tradition of leaving amazing pillow gifts for demonstrators on the Incentive Trip. This year was no exception!
The first gorgeous pillow gift that we received were these two bags. The first bag matches perfectly with the travel document wallet we received before the trip. The bag is just gorgeous, the perfect size for traveling, with lots of great pockets. There is a wonderful metal tag on there that says HAWAII STAMPIN' UP! 09. The second bag was a sports style bag, perfect for going to the gym. There is a great little turtle on the front of the bag. This bag was the gift for our guest on the trip. I took my mum on the trip with me and she was just thrilled with the bag.
The second night we received this really cool looking palm leaf basket. I didn't want to pull it apart, the presentation was just so incredible. Of course I did unwrap it! Good job I did as it was full of all sorts of Hawaiian treats!
The third night we received a gorgeous sarong as our pillow gift. I was so thrilled with this gift as I had been looking for a nice sarong but most of the ones I found said Hawaii or Aloha on them and I didn't really want that. The one from Stampin' Up! is just wonderful! They gave them out in either a soft pink and a deep red.
Our last night there we received an extra special gift, this gorgeous silver necklace. The necklaces were all handmade in Hawaii. The link on the chain is just gorgeous. It is such a beautiful and thoughtful memento for all of us to take home.
On top of the wonderful pillow gifts we also received free product while we were there. I won many of these items when I spun the wheel in the Hospitality Suite each day. Other items were given out to us at the Share Night.
I'll be back tomorrow with some more pictures from my Stampin' Up! Incentive Trip, including a few pictures of the gorgeous box they gave us with our Make & Take supplies. I may even be able to find a few pictures that actually have people in them! lol
