Hi Everyone sorry to take so long to share some highlights from New Zealand
Firstly I have to say a HUGE THANK YOU to Expertise Events for choosing me as their Guest Artist for New Zealand I am so very honored and so thankful for the amazing opportunity.
I loved every minute of both shows and loved meeting everyone and sharing my love of papercrafting with all who attended.
I had my first time flying Emirates and I have to say I can't wait to fly with them again, next time on a longer flight I hope. I think my trip was made even more enjoyable because I had the whole back row to myself
I almost got upstairs
after arriving at Auckland International Airport
First stop was
Hamilton
everyday on my way to and from the show I walked across the bridge and the Waikato River
My stand all set up
I experienced my first Cronut from the farmers market on Sunday morning
after the show i had half a day to explore Hamilton and came across this statue of Riff Raff from the Rocky Horror Picture Show
and after visiting the museum I wondered down to the river for one last look

this wall of poppies is created from knitted. crocheted and quilted poppies ...so many hours of love and work in this wall
the crowds lined up waiting for the show to open
the view of the Cathedral from our hotel window as you can see it remain in ruins as does alot of Christchurch ...they say it will be another 4 years before Christchurch is rebuilt.
the Re-Start Mall in Christchurch ..such a fabulous idea to get Christchurch trading again ...best meals and coffee here at the Hummingbird Coffee
and a quick trip up to Roundhill Ski Field for some snow fun
