as it turns out

I do have some extra kits. Many of you have written to ask if there are any extras and there are a few. I forgot how many and they will hopefully turn up this week in a box I shipped from Omaha. I'll list them on etsy (edit- here on the blog shop) when I get a handle on that.

With all the excitement of Silver Bella before and after I didn't even realize that my first year of blogging came full circle on November 12. I've come a long way from where I started out a year ago with no idea at all what a life-changing event blogging would be. It has brought so many extraordinary people and opportunities into my little studio world. I have been whisked away into the bigger world, virtually and literally, in a most unexpected way. Inspired, motivated, supported in my creative work, blogging has challenged me to do more, be more. But surely what I treasure most is the way that you have touched, comforted, connected and transformed me by your visits and comments. I have learned so much about myself- and you too. Gone from a solitary studio life to the one I dreamt of in a community of dear like-minded folks, it has been an incredible gift to share with each of you this year. Thank you for every day and I look forward to all those to come.

To celebrate this personal milestone and to share more of the Bella bounty, I will be giving away two of the kits. Please leave a comment here and Sunday evening I'll choose a few names. I would love to know which was your favorite post, if it comes to mind- without too much trouble or reading. Just because I'm curious. Thanks again- for each of you. I am truly grateful!  xoC
