I started blogging 4 years ago because I wanted to try out for Design Teams as well ... and I've never looked back ... it's been one of the best experiences of my life ... here's to many more years of blogging fun.SmilynStefhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01803913506632383364noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-374400712353289619.post-26490642681819720632011-08-07T14:13:27.865-07:002011-08-07T14:13:27.865-07:00Dear Tanya -Happy Blogaversary! I know exactly ho...Dear Tanya -Happy Blogaversary! I know exactly how you feel. I started my blog when ex Bella Babe Jen del Muro posted a contest. You were required to link your entry to your blog and I was without one. The owner of my LSS showed me what to do..helped me do a post and was the catalyst for me expanding my creative juices. I was lucky when I lived in Michigan, 'cuz there were lots of creative outlets. My son gave me the best Chirstmas gift ever in 2009, it was a pencil coloring class with Paulabella. She influenced me the MOST. I was in awe of her skill, her friendliness, her desire to help you grow. We quickly became friends and spent time every now and then coloring. She lived about 1 1/2 hours away and it was fun to pal around with her. She introduced me to Lindabella (melt, melt, can you say my idol since I use Copics more than pencils) and then Pauline. It was this time last year that we were shopping at the Novi stamp show and Pauline and I threw our hats in the ring for the Babe contest you started your blog for. I was giggling with excitement when I got home and shared my adventures with my hubby. Pauline and I both got lucky and made the team but I've moved away from them and miss seeing them so much. I remember when my card making idol - Amy Sheffer - left a comment congratulating me on making the DT. I about fell out of my chair. <br /><br />I will share with you that I've admired your work each week. I hope you continue to participate in the Bella challenges as you never know what's in store. But, create for the fun of it and enjoy!

Shame on me, in part due to the fact it is summer and being so short I'm enjoying it not crafting (insert somewhat sad face) and two because we now have a MAC computer at home and I really know NOTHING about how to use it. LOL!<br /><br />Think of you often, hope your summer is going well too.arlenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10304717421007975525noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-374400712353289619.post-90609359093672015192011-07-23T00:49:08.108-07:002011-07-23T00:49:08.108-07:00I started mine for my customers.
