I think so many of us judge ourselves by comments & what others are doing, etc. Sometimes you just have to do what it is that you want to do for no other reason than to please yourself. You do fabulous work & your blog is such a source of inspiration for me. I love each & every creation of yours, & this beauty is no exception! Love your new look & look forward to seeing where your "blossoming" goes :) Have a good week!

It's easy to get wrapped up in trying to do what everyone else is doing and trying just to keep up. You have to be true to you and do what's best for YOU.

I often wonder what is wrong with my art (and at the worst times, what is wrong with me) when I feel like what I make isn't met with good comments and the like. Our art is just that - ours and we should celebrate the talents we've been given regardless. This is one of my favorite PSs ever, and I love the new look of your blog, too!

I really don't think that you realize what an inspiration you are to all of us. Your work is some of the finest I've ever come across and I absolutely aspire to become the kind of card maker, business person and all around wonderful person that you are! Having said that, I find it so hard to believe that you had any self-doubt at all...your artistry, creativeness and kindness paint a very different picture.
