A few pics from Norway…

The internet connection in the Paris hotel is S-L-O-W…but here are a few pics from beautiful Norway. The Papirfest event was wonderful, a true pleasure! I loved teaching there! A big thanks to May Lis and Mari for taking great care of me.

Stavanger is lovely…here's the "most colorful street in Norway."

Beautiful "old" Stavanger…all historic houses.

 

May Lis and Mari talked me out of going on the boat cruise to the fjord…and if you take a look at this wind, I think their advice was wise…

 

Saw some old viking dwellings…way cool….

 

The BEST thing about teaching is meeting fabulous people…fellow teacher Oddborg is super sweet, and oh-so-talented. I've admired her work for ages! It was so fun to meet her IRL. (And holy freak, do I need to start coloring my gray, or what. Me = bad hair. Wow.)

 

Also got to meet two more of my favorite scrappers–Ania (who is on the Hambly DT with me) and Tracie (scrapper extraordinaire, who also taught at Papirfest). Awesome, awesome gals, I so enjoyed laughing with them and being inspired by their talent.

 

And, I have to say, Norwegian scrappers have MAD talent. Seriously. They should have been teaching classes to me! I adore them.

 

 

And, um, yeah, I bought just a little bit of chocolate.

 

We're enjoying Paris immensely…will try to load some pics tomorrow. Off to eat another chocolate croissant. Or two.
