Our flight left late from Orlando - we ran into storms (lots of turbulance) - so the pilot took a little detour.... We were even later! Our connecting flight did not wait for us, so we are stranded. But we are in a beautiful hotel (airline discount.....)
So you'll have to wait until Saturday for more photos.... since most of the flights for tomorrow are overbooked...

It's been too long since I posted, but it seems that since my trip to Bruxelles, I can't catch up....
Just a little quick share today, because I'm busy getting ready to go to..... ***CHA**** in Orlando. Yeah!! A dream come true!!!
I will be taking lots of picutres, so if I can, I'll try to post!!!
So back to the subject, here are my two projects for our SU Club for July. I love the new colours, so I introduced them to my Club ladies.
If you are interested in doing those projects (or any other of my Club projects), come join one of my Clubs - we have lots of fun. Email me: louisecharlton@videotron.ca - I will be happy to give you all the information you need! If you can't join a Club and would like to purchase Stampin'Up products, email me at the same address.
Here is the scrapbook page we made, using the Level 2 Hostess set.

Don't you just love that little bird! Note that I used So Saffron for my sample, but we used "Crushed Curry" at the Club meeting. Much prettier with the other vibrant colours....
The second project was a card, using the Stamp positioner (Stamp-a-majig).

Thanks for your visit. Merci de votre visite.
A card I made for our SU Club swap back in April - just forgot to post it:
Here is another photo of the canal in Bruges, this time at dusk.... At 10:30 pm, it still wasn't dark...
This photo was taken earlier in the day yesterday - just as we were leaving on our boat tour. As you can see, lots 0f boats at the same time on the canal....
Most of the houses are very old and medieval-looking on the canall... Lots of flowers....
I'll have to post more photos later - just realise tht it is very late!
Louise
With my mini computer I must reduce all photos to 25% of their size in order to be ablee to post with the Ethernet connection. So it is very long.... and I didn't have the chance to look at the photos before and since I always take too many photos, I have a lot to look through.
Here is a photo I took this afternoon, just before leaving our hotel in Bruges (almost medieval city).... We were very near the canal besides an old 1500 century church. The bells of the church rang every half hour.... beautiful....!
So here is a view of the canal, right after the rain....
Yesterday, we did the boat tour of the canal. Some of these little round bridges are very low!!
OK more photos to come...
Louise
Julie and I are in Bruxelles! Just came back from 1 1/2 days in Bruges. So beautiful! Did not have to Internet before now - everything is so expensive! Even Internet access.... 25E for 10 hours.. at 1.6 exchange rate to Canadian..... that's a lot of $... Anyway, in this hotel in Bruxelles, they lent an Internet cable for free and I'm connected!
Took a lot of photos so far, but I'm not sure I can post.... I have my mini computer and not too much software. I will try....
This was taken tonight after supper iin La Grand'Place. This is one of the very old building....
Will try to post more...
Bye for now! Louise and Julie
Today is my birthday and as a surprise gift, my husband and daughter have given me a trip to Europe.
