Hi friends! My husband and I have just returned home from a 3 week vacation in Japan. We had a great time visiting family, even some Stampin’ Up! family!!!
This is the outside of the totally stunning offices of Stampin’ Up! in the area of Ginza in Tokyo. Isn’t the building incredible?!
There are 6 members of staff in the office, and everyone was there to welcome me. It was so lovely to spend time with everyone, but especially Yukiko. She and I chatted for a few hours about business and the differences between the North American and Japanese markets. It was really quite fascinating! She also explained how they use their lovely space to host local demonstrators for trainings, product reveals, and business seminars. They had just had an event the day before with TONS of brand new Holiday Catalogue products!
There was a stunning display board for the new Cookie Cutter Christmas Bundle.
Stockings are back! But this time with framelits! EEK!!
Oh and the Christmas Pines Bundle – swoon! The pinecones have so much dimension!!!
And check out all those presents! You’ll find these in the Presents and Pinecones Designer Paper.
I really can’t thank the incredible staff at the Tokyo office enough for hosting me. I had THE BEST time and I hope I can visit again next time we are in Japan!

Thanks for going all the way to Japan and posting a photo of one of the very few samples I got to make for Holiday Mini! 😉
