I just received an "I love your blog tag" from Kathy ! Thanks so much Kathy! Your beautiful cards and enthusiasm really inspire me.

The rules:

I have to pick 7 of my favorite blogs and…

1. The winner can put the logo on their blog

2. Link the person you received your award from

3. Nominate at least 7 other blogs.

4. Put links of those blogs on yours.

5. Leave a message on the blogs of the girls or boys you’ve nominated.


So, here goes!
Most of my choices have been nominated before, these are the people I read every day:

1. Kathy - your enthusiasm and beautiful cards and layouts are an inspiration to me, and motivate me to do more crafting. I have learned from you how much easier it is to buy color coordinated papers and inks, and wow, it's so much more relaxing and fun to work that way... I am glad you are part of the Stampin Up club. I enjoy your company and love reading your blog and seeing your latest projects. You are a really lovely woman, and I am glad to know you.

2. Izzy - whoa, now Izzy you are a tornado of a creative personality, lots of fun, giving, and the only person I know who knows how to squeeze 3 minutes into every minute of her life. Her thoughtfulness and kindness reflect in all of her creations. Holy Moly, Izzy! I am so lucky to have you as a friend!

3. Jo - I just love Jo - you're a real artist, does some incredible work! I love reading you blog, I am reminded of the beauty in life, and there's always something to make me smile. Your touching descriptions of nature make my heart sing. Jo, you should consider writing a children's book, you have such lovely ideas.

4.Diane - Diane, I love your blog. The photo that comes up when I bring up your blog reminds me to have a light heart and not take things too seriously. Truly, you are one of a kind, a great scrapbooker, a great organizer, and a very kind woman. It's great having your store at crops- you are so helpful and give such great customer service!
The retreats at Timberline are a blast, and I am really looking forward to my creative mini vacation!

5. Sue F - How can I thank you? The monthly Stampin Up club is one of the highlights of my month! How kind of you to have us at your home to learn new techniques. I love stamping and card making so much more now that I have found Stampin Up - so much easier to be creative without wondering if a color " belongs". Love your blog and creative ideas. And your garden... I am lost in serenity when I enter there.

6. A Flowery Hobby - A kindred spirit who loves gardens nature, and makes really lovely cards. Her flower photos and comments ground me. I really enjoy your blog Bev!

7. No Time to Stamp? - Sharon your work is beautiful, and I enjoy reading the challenges and seeing everyone's work. Your quick and easy ideas are great! How on earth did we ever live without the internet???

8. Pioneer Woman - Ree, you are a hoot! If I need to be uplifted, need a good recipe, or just want to get lost in your amazing photos, well, your blog is the one I go to. You have no idea how many times your recipes with photos have helped me when I had "cooking brain freeze". You may have been born in the city, but you definitely have the soul of a country girl! Yours is the first blog I got onto, and man oh man... so many times I am slapping my sides and laughing til I almost wee myself, you are so witty!
