Reference



This is part of a shelf in my art/computer room. It's some of my reference or tear up stuff. You'll see some brightly colored magazines in the middle which is Artful Blogging, Somerset Studio, and Somerset Life. I got my latest Artful Blogging a few days ago and I read e v e r y word. It's so inspiring.

I find that I need this kind of reference, not to copy but for inspiration and visual stimulation.

Blogging with you wonderful girls, seeing what you're doing in your life, what you love, what makes you tick, what's exciting to you. That also is wonderful reference if you will. It helps us to grow and expand . It's so good. Peace, Diane

Hi Diane,
I need to read some of those books, they look interesting!
I also find blogging to be so great. It's such a part of my life now, I was telling my nieces and husband today that I feel as if I know these women personally, and consider them all friends even though we never met. I laugh, cry, feel joy and pain with all of you. My life has truly expanded since I started to blog, the people I visit daily through their writings has been one of the greates joys. I have "pen pals" from all over the U.S., what can be greater than that! I love you all, we are sisters at heart!
Blessings,
Laurie

It has reignited the creative side of me no doubt. We all need an outlet for expression, don't we? :c) Have a beautiful day my friend.

Blogging has helped me through this past year and it has brought me many new friends who are inspiring me to keep on fighting. Days when I am down, reading some of my favorite blogs lifts my spirits.It's also a way for my family that aren't close by to stayed informed on what is happening.
So....let's all keep blogging when we can!
Jill.
