Changes
September 1st, 2008
See that little lady bug climbing the roof line? Wonder what she’ll see when she clears the last bit of fungus blocking her view?
For the last 12 months, I have been so blessed to serve on the Cornish Heritage Farms design team. It has been an incredibly rich experience to both see the company grow with fabulous new artists and licensing agreements and to work with the team of uber-talented ladies. Everyone gives 110% from Richard and Liz (owners) on down the line. Personally, I can’t even begin to tell you how much I have grown during my time on the CHF Team.
As, I move to a more full time position in my day job at Splitcoaststampers (the number one site for stamping and paper-crafting inspiration on the web ;)), I’ll be changing my blog roll around in the next day or two. CHF will be listed as past design experience. I’ll still be designing cards, posting to my blog, participating in challenges and concentrating on freelance publication work, but it will be just that, freelance. I’ll be stamping with product from companies that I have no formal design agreements with or obligations to. CHF will definitely be among that offering here on my blog, and it will always be with the utmost respect and appreciation that CHF is listed in my design resume.
So who knows what the ladybug is going to see when she crosses the roof line - that remains unseen…I feel like that little ladybug - moving up a big hill and half way to a destination unknown…can’t wait to see what I find on the other side, and I’ll be sure to share it with you when I get a peek!
Thanks for sticking with me, and Happy Labor Day!

I have to say I’m glad you’re not going anywhere!!!! I always look forward to your cards and designs no matter what company you design for. It would be a dream to be able to design for anyone, but my life is so unpredictable. Splitcoast would definitely be AWESOME to be a part of that community on a whole different level! I soooo looking forward to Oct 9-10th!!! You Go Girl!!!
