Blog Candy from Jessica and Blog Comments Award

First up, Jessica G is giving out some great blog candy over at Jess' Obsession!! Seems she hit a milestone on her counter...no surprise, she has great projects and inspiration over there. You should go check it out...or maybe not...then, maybe I'll win {** insert evil grin here**}. My blogging buddy Juanita gave me thsi best blog comments award. It is a very kind gesture. Let me tell you how I feel about comments. Now, like most of us bloggers, I appreciate all comments because it validates my work, helps me to recognize what others like, and lets me know I am inspiring others in this wonderful craft! Now this is the part that I want to share...but I don't want anyone to be angry with me!! I realize many of us are busy and strapped for time in the busy lives we lead...so I am totally great with a short and sweet comment!! In fact, just the fact that someone was willing to take the time to leave any little comment on my lowly blog makes me very excited. However, I have to say that there are a few specific gals out there who have really inspired me not only in their artistic abilities, but in their kindness and honest interest in my work. It shows through their comments!! They go above what most of us do, write an "I love this card" or "great color combo" and take the time to expain what they like about it, or what aspects of the project excite them! I like that and because of them, I have tried to be a good, kind, and truely interested commenter too!! So, Juanita, your award really means a lot to me LOL! So, who are these awesome commenters?? They would be Kelly, Jessica, Chris, and Susan!! and Juanita would go in here herself...but again, a bit redundant!! :D Now you are probably tired of my rambling about comments...back to blog surfing!! :D Donelda

Aww, shucks! Thanks, Donelda. Sometimes I feel guilty that I am leaving a long comment (don't want to write a book), but I am glad you appreciate it. That probably means others do too, eh? I will hopefully get a chance to post your wonderful blog award soon. This one really comes with a "bit" of sentiment/emotion behind it, and you know I love that! Hugs to you, my friend! :) Kel
