My choice for today’s Photo Friday “Blue” challenge was actually taken fairly recently – just about a month and a half ago, in fact – in response to a “Something Blue” prompt for the Fat Mum Slim Photo A Day Challenge. So I apologize to those of you who may have already seen it, but I was so very happy with how the photo turned out that I just had to feature it today!
Photo Friday – Blue
And on another note… today’s happiness is brought to you by holding several packages of Holly & Snowflake Stationery Cards – my very own design! – in my hot little hands.
100 Happy Days – Day 91
I never realized what a thrill it would be to see an end result to a piece of art that I’ve created. To have gone from a blank piece of paper, to a completed design, to an electronic file, to a hypothetical product, to something real and tangible – well, it’s a brand new experience for me, and the feeling is hard to describe. It’s excitement, it’s pride, it’s accomplishment… and it’s all good.
Hope you’re all ready for an amazing weekend!

Your designs are so lovely. I don’t have much of a need for note paper anymore, alas – I haven’t written a note (other than in sympathy cards – isn’t that sad?) since my last letter writing relative passed away in 2003. I do give them as gifts but, anymore, I know hardly anyone that uses them anymore. And, to this woman in her 60’s, that is also sad.

I’m much the same, though I do like giving Christmas and birthday cards.
