This is a piece I did quite a few years ago but just stumbled across it in my portfolio and realized I really liked it and should blog about it. I think I'm going to make this available as a print soon. I'll update this post when I do! This was inspired by one of my favorite beaches, Trunk Bay, located in the Virgin Islands. In the mid-90's I was a dancer for Carnival Cruise Lines and got to go to all sorts of tropical locations. Sitting here in Michigan, I wish I was there now! I had such a great time doing that job. And I use the word "job" loosely. I met great people and had a great time. I worked cruise ships from the age of 19 to 23. I've included one of my cast photos from the Carnival ship, the MS Celebration, which they no longer own. This was in 1995. I'm the guy on the far left.
Great image...which I was there too! Virgin Isles to Michigan is a drastic change for anyone...haha Let your link on my blog.
Hey thanks for the freebies, i'm now a follower, sent by a fellow crafter. TFS!
Hi, Andy! Great work! I, too, am from MI - born and raised, but living in WV since last Oct. It's cold here, too, but I don't envy your weather this winter! I'd definitely want to be back on a cruise ship, too!
This is my first visit to your blog - thanks for the freebies! I'll use them on cards that I make and be sure to post a link back to you when I add it to my blog!
Take care!
@Cely - Thank so much! And thanks a million for the link. I appreciate that more than words.
@Kimberly - Hi Kimberly. Looking forward to getting to know you!
@Cafe - Thanks! I was born in Ohio, lived in FL for the past 12-years and moved to MI last year with my partner to help him run our four-cabin vacation rental. www.TeeLakeResort.com. It's been quite a change but I was ready for it. I'm just glad spring is on its way! I can't wait to see what you create. I'll be posting new freebies all the time. Keep watching!
