Patty, I have been reading your blog for almost 10 years. My coworker, friend and fellow crafter shared with me your blog address. At a time when I was just learning about blogs, I really have enjoyed yours. My most memorable post was the one about using the Bigz pennant die set. My failed attempt to follow your instructions (I glued the pennats on backwards). I have admired your creativity with the cards and projects you have made. I have enjoyed your flowers, your supportive family, and your videos. I have really enjoyed your caring spirit.

[KT]

I found your blog years ago when you were making the rag purses using the bigshot die, and I've been following enjoying your blog ever since! I really enjoy seeing all of your creative cards and projects.

[Cindi]

Happy 10 years - you have done a super job on your blog with up to date info, ideas and keeping us inspired to try something new.

[Mary Ann H.]

Congrats on your 10 years! I have been following you for about six years when I discovered SU. I really liked your post when you hit the one million mark and also the more recent post regarding the story behind your design of the badge of courage stamp set. Awesome job!

[Phyllis Werner]

Hi Patty, another congrats to you!. I found your blog while on Pinterest almost 2 years ago. I was just getting into stamping and creating cards. I had gone to a garage sale were someone was selling some stampin up ink pads and stamps. I started looking up stampin up on Pinterest. That's when my obsession with the products began. I read your blog everyday now and you became my demonstrator.

[Sarah]

Happy 10 years Patty! I am a fairly new blog follower (maybe only a year??), and have enjoyed present posts and loved looking through your past posts- especially your crafty organization tips and videos! Your ideas continue to inspire me and wow me with your creativeness! Congratulations on 10 years!

[Seletta]

Greetings and Congrats, a visit with you first thing each morning is the way I start my day. So much appreciate your sharing your time, ideas, projects and pictures of gardens and family news. I've been checking in with you since almost the beginning of your blogging career, so many different things you've shared have given me inspiration and encouragement. Keep up the great job your doing and with Stampin Up products you'll keep us around along time,
Love to stamp and wish you a Joy filled day.

[Laura L]

Wow-10 years-congrats! I have been following you a long time-years-not sure how many-I love all your tutorials-you make everything look so easy. I also love when you share your family and flowers with us!

[Jennifer Newell]

Congrats on your 10 years of blogging. I stumbled across you about 2 years ago when searching on you tube for card inspiration. I enjoy your pictures of your flower gardens...absolutely stunning. Thanks for sharing your talent of stamping and crafting.

[Ann Pomerleau]

Congratulations on your 10 years with SU!!!
I am new to your blog, found it on Pinterest.
Love your cards and videos, you inspire me to create my cards.
Love all SU products and would love to win this prize, thanks for the opportunity.

[Aileen]

My favorite blog post was the pizza and hamburger cards. It was quite a few years ago. My neighbor and I just HAD to make those cards. It was so much fun and still is. Thank you for keeping up with your blog posts and videos. I treasure you friendship through the years.

[Annelie S.]

Congratulations on another anniversary, Patty. I discovered you about five years ago when I wanted to order some stamps. I check your blog every morning and love your videos. I also share your love of flowers. Keep up the fantastic job you do and keep smiling. I love your enthusiasm.

[Bea Connor]

Congratulations! I'm fairly new to your blog so I can't pick one in particular I like. I must say I enjoy all of them and love your videos. You are so exact in explaining the steps and it is so appreciated. Thank you!

[Kathy Cormany]

Patty, I discovered you when I joined the FB ATSU group. Now you're the first blog I check every morning. I love everything that you do and can't pick out just one. Keep up the great work! You're an inspiration for us all!

[sndy1]

Congratulations on your ten year anniversary! A friend told me about your blog years ago and I have been enjoying your ideas and posts almost daily since. Thanks.

[Deepa M.]

Congratulations Patty!! What an amazing milestone - 10 years of blogging. I've been following you for nearly the entire 10 years. I can't exactly remember how I found you ... but I think it must have been through a search for some stamp set and your blog came up. I remember your sunflower swap cards for the 2008 convention, when you sneaky-peeked the piles and piles of parts and pieces for the cards you were making. I love how you mix in tips and tricks when you are explaining your projects. The one that particularly sticks out in my mind was the tip you shared on how to cut the 12x12 DSP so that you could maximize its use with the matchbox die way back when. I referred to that tip quite often, as it was just genius :) I can't wait to see what the next 10 years brings - Congratulations!!!

[patti moffett]

the numbers are staggering...congratulations...I think I have looked at all 3000 posts!!!

[Mary C.]

I have been looking at your blog for about 5 years and I'm happy to be among your BIG numbers. I love all of your videos and always learn something from you. Thanks Patty from a past, present and future view.

[Cynthia F.]

I have been reading your blog for only about 6 or 7 months. After researching several Demonstrator Websites closest to me, I found yours to be the best! Not only do I enjoy seeing the ideas you make with SU products, I love watching and learning from your videos. Congratulations to you for all your milestones!

[Pam S.]

Congratulations on 10 years! I have been following your blog for about 4-5 years. Enjoy all the cards and projects you share. My other favorite you share is your Beautiful Flowers, l love flower gardens but not able to grow much due to our location, but just love to see yours! Makes my day!

[Paige]

Congratulations. I have been reading your blog for 6 to 7 years.
Paige

[Sue]

Many years ago Aileen's daughter found your blog. We have followed you since then. We enjoy checking in with you every day. I must agree with Aileen that the hamburger and pizza cards were so much fun. We spent an entire Saturday afternoon cutting and punching all the parts and pieces to create what we had seen on your blog.. It is wonderful that you are our demonstrator but also our friend even though we live on opposite sides of the country!

[Sheryl Hawkins Ghiloni]

I have been following your blog for about 10 years and it is the first thing I look at every morning. I love all your projects and especially new product reveal. Wish you all the best for coming years.
Shery G

[Sharon Wentz]

Hi Patty! I know it's been awhile but I do check your blog often. You have always been the best demo and I love your posts. I think I met you when Pat found you as a demo in her area. And then started to come to your great open houses! I loved those! You always had the best displays for ideas (no Pinterest or blogs in those days!). Congrats on your 10 years and for all your successes in your SU career!

[Carrie S.]

Wow! Congratulations on 10 years! I started following you last year when I got back into stamping. You always have wonderful ideas to share - thank you for being an inspiration to me!

[Janie]

Wow, Happy 10 Years Patty!! I have been reading your blog for many years! You always do the coolest projects which I love to see. I can still remember when you were doing the rag purses with the big shot! You are amazing and definitely someone who I look up to in the crafting world!! Here's to many more years!!

[Mary Butterfield]

Patty,
Congratulations on 10 years on blogging. I met you once MANY years ago at a gathering Janice Weightman held here in Illinois. I've been a fan and follower ever since. Love your work and your personality. I have learned so much from you. I just wanted to thank you for sharing your knowledge so freely with others. You ROCK!!
Mary

[Tracey Parrott]

I'm sure I've been following you at least 8 of your ten years! I have always loved how you use designer paper on your projects. But when you share your flower pics I can almost smell the roses !! Thank you for sharing so much of the things you love on your blog!

[Vicki Davis]

I saw one of your blog posts with photos of your amazing roses. So beautiful! I knew I wanted to see more pretty things you were going to feature on your blog. The SU posts are a bonus.

[Denise S.]

I have been following your blog daily for years. It was one of the web sites that was given to me when i started using Stampin ' Up products. The demonstrator said to check out your site for an array of ideas and so true it has been. I really like your out of the box ideas so I get more bang for my buck on purchases. One of my memorable non stamping blogs was when you had that HUGE beehive nest growing outside your fence in the back yard and you had to call in some bee removal experts to clear it out. The pictures were buzzworthy.

thank you for all your ideas and inspiration.

[Lori Souter]

Hi Patty and congratulations! So fun that something that started on one path took another! I have been following you for at least 8 years! I love seeing what you are up to as often as I can. Many times I have been planning my stamp club and used your site for inspiration! thank you for that!

[Michelle Bobby]

Congratulations on 10 great years of success! As a former stampin up! Demonstrater I applaud you and wish you many more great years ahead. I still love creating little joys with all of the wonderful things stampin up! Offers. And was over joyed when I found your blog a few yrs ago on Facebook. Your such an inspiration and so creative. Thank you for giving me awesome ideas to continue creating one of a kind gifts and cards.

[Carole]

Congratulations on 10 years!! Love your blog and videos.

[Susan Wright]

I am relatively new to your blog---I appreciate all your tips and as a BC survivor REALLY appreciate your new Courage stamp set!!

[Karen Halterman]

Congrats Patty on 10 years of blogging. I think that I found you through another demo's site or you were in a blog hop? Blog Hops are how I have found many SU demos I now follow. I believe that I have been following you for 3-4 years now..once I got a Smart Phone and have internet access and Pinterest.
My favorite blog post of yours was when you shared your craft space because it was not big and full of custom made cabinets and work spaces...yours is small and practical and achievable like most non-demo stampers have. It made you (to me) more like a friend"s stamping space..down to earth, homey, and you seem like the girl next door. One I personally know and like to spend time with to get inspiration from.
Your creations in your stamp space are just beautiful yet easy enough for any stamper to CASE and create at home.
I bought your little pack of garden flower photos with scripture and sayings..what a treasure! So uplifting and I love flowers too. My favorite cards of yours are ones with flowers!!
May God continue to bless your SU business for many more years.
Am from Iowa and Dena Rekow is my main demo but I love having contact through blogs/videos with other SU demos.

[Joni]

I stumbled upon you from another stampin up demonstrators blog where she had cased a project of yours. Been stalking you ever since. Congrats!

[Sherry in MI]

Congratulations on 10 years in Blogland! I have been following you for a couple of years now and enjoyed how you found out that your were a million dollar seller. (Like the stamp set that you have created in honor of that momentous event.) Can't remember how I found you, but have enjoyed your many videos and look forward to reading your blog every day. Keep up the great work!

[Leslie de Santiago]

Wow! What a feat! Congrats. I have been following your blog for a while. I am not sure how long but probably at least 2 years. I found it randomly when I started using Stampin Up products. I love your creativity and spunk. It is just a happy place to come to. Thank you and carry on for another 10+ years.

[Sharlene Wale]

Congratulations on such a successful blog! It was apparent from the very first post, (still love the baby wipe resist technique) that you were going to make this thing work. :) Looking forward to what the next XX years bring.

[Amy Ismail]

Hi Patty,
This is my first time visiting your blog. I love that you have been a stamper for over 20 years. I also love the cards that you shared in this blog. The colors and designs are so pretty! Thank you for this awesome giveaway. I would love to try some new stampin up products :)

[Debbie Wicklund]

I have been following your blog for most of those 10 years. Not sure how I got there but probably was searching for some idea& you popped up! I've enjoyed your paper shares. My favorite post was your Hello Lovely Project Life cards. Those were awesome! Congratulations!

[Mary Russom]

I'm not sure when I signed up but its been a LONG time that I've been a fan of yours! I have purchased a couple of tutorials, my fave was a little scrapbook. I love reading your posts and looking at your projects. I look forward to many many many more years of inspiration from you!

[Kathy Beemer]

I've been following you for years and still look forward to each one of your posts. Your ideas are always fresh and exciting.

[Cindi Morgan]

Congrats on 10 years. You too a super great job and I love your posts. Thank you for sharing all you do.

[Denise Bryant]

Ten years... that's amazing! I can't recall how I came across your blog because it was a long time ago! I'd guess about 6 or 7 years ago! So I wasn't here at the beginning, but I've been around a long time! I always enjoy your posts and seeing what's happening with you and your family. And of course, your lovely card creations!
Your How To Video: Hardwood Background Stamp to create a Fence from March 22, 2014 is one of my favorites that I have referred to several times!
Congrats on 10 years of blogging!

[Nancy Plymale]

Happy Anniversary Patty!!! I've been reading your blog for probably 4-5 years now... You are my source of inspiration when I'm in a stamping slump... Thank you for all you do for the stamping world!!! Nancy P.

[Laurie]

Congratulations! Happy 10th anniversary! I have only been following you for a little over a year!

[Jan Dewey]

I have been reading your blog for at least 7 years and love your shares! I have gained so much inspiration from your posts. I was a hobby demo for a few years and I am pretty sure seeing how you used a product convinced me that I had to have it, too. I dropped about two years ago and still love SU and am very afraid to see the next catalog (although I'm dying to get a copy in my hands). Thanks always for sharing what you love.

[Doris]

Congratulations on your 10th anniversary and your other SU awards. Well deserved!

[Kris K]

One of my older favorite blog posts is the one that you did where you made the file folder cards. I believe it was with envelope punch board. More recently, I really love the Serene scenery note cards that you made. I've been doing stamping for about five years, and yours was one of the very first blogs that I found. You have brought me much inspiration and joy. Congratulations on 10 years!

[Lynne Anakin]

WhooHoo! Conrats.....10 years of awesome inspiration. I started stamping and card making with Stampin Up about 3 years ago now. I found your blog at about the same time, and have followed you ever since. Happy anniversary and keep on blogging'.

[Kristy Sarau]

I've been following your blog for over a year! I just love to see the projects you come up with & for me to make an attempt at them also ;)

[Judi]

Patty, I'm new to your blog, but I just wanted to give you 1,000,000,000 Thank You's for your Ribbon of Courage Stamp set. I have been looking for a Ribbon set since I was diagnosed with breast cancer. When I go to treatment I try to take a cute tag with a treat for my nurses and the office staff and they look forward to what I bring. I can hardly wait for June first to order it and begin creating. I'll be combining it at times with the Everyday Hero set as I have an alter ego, Princess Power Puff, who kicks cancer to the curb. Thanks a Million Patty!!! Princess Power Puff!!!

[Mary]

Hi Patty,
Congratulations on 10 years & all of your success over the years. I always enjoy your blog & videos.
Mary

[Kelley H]

I love a lot of your videos. I loved the one about storing your paper. I have bought several of the plastic sleeves. Love my organized paper. Congrats to you.

[Mandy C.]

Congrats, Patty! I have been following you for about six month, especially daily on instagram! Thanks for the daily inspiration!

[Verna Hardwick]

Congrats on your 10-year Blog-A- Versary!! I've been following you for a lot of years but no idea exactly how long! Thanks for the chance to win!

[Deloris Gilmore]

Patty I enjoy your sight. Look at your great work everyday. I really like the cards you make with
flowers. Your cards are so BEAUTIFUL with flower themes just like your garden. I see your garden
in the cards. Keep up the great work. Congratulations on 10 great years and many more.
Deloris

[Elizabeth. Bennett]

Congratulations on your 10 years of posting! 🎉🌹🎈 I don't remember how I found your blog but so glad I did! I've really enjoy your tutorials that are so well planned and produced. I really like the ones on how you organize your crafting supplies since that is NOT one of my strengths. Your videos have helped me a great deal!
I was so thrilled when I saw your Ribbon of Courage design for the new catalog.....I've been looking for something like this for some time now and you did a fabulous job along with your designer in creating a set that I'm sure will become a favorite very quickly! I plan to purchase it on my next order. I am an ovarian cancer survivor and also lost my younger brother to pancreatic cancer. This set will help me inspire and encourage others on their cancer journey. Blessings to you for your gifted talent! 💗🌷💗

[Tammy Tavares]

Congrats on 10 years! I was a demonstrator for Stampin Up and that's how I found you. Life happens and had to give it up due to family obligations, but have continued to follow you and enjoy all of your blog post. They have helped me stay connected to crafting and allow me to see all the beautiful things you make, share and teach. I even have used you for online ordering. You are a great teacher and awesome person. Thanks for your 10 years of sharing your life and hope to be posting at your 20.

[Paige Grabau]

Patty, I found your blog many years ago and always loved your style of crafting. i love all of your cards but do you remember these two projects? One from way long ago you made gift card holders from cardboard CD folders? I think that was you! And then another fav project was your tag a bag gift boxes. Of course there are many favorites other than those two, but they stand out for me. here's to ten more years of genrously sharing your creativity and talent with all of us! Congratulations and big hugs!

[Dana]

Congratulations Patty! I believe I came across your blog while searching for SU Demo blogs looking for more inspiration to use my supplies. I have enjoyed your posts for the past 4 plus years. I enjoy that you share a bit about yourself and your family. I also appreciate how you share your experimentations with a particular product, color combination, patterned paper, etc. Thanks for the great ideas.

[Christine S.]

Congrats on your 10 years of blogging, so thankful that you share your talent with us! I have been following you for at least 5 years and I love all that you create, but the Serene Scenery Notecards stick out as ones I fondly remember. I just love that paper and the bold words. Love! Here's hoping for at least 10 more years! Thanks 4 the chance!

[Shelley Jeffrey]

Congratulations on 10 years! I only recently started following some blogs, and yours is one of them. Looking forward to many more to come!

I have been watching your Youtube videos for a few years now. Just discovered your blog. You are so wonderful to share your talents with us. Congrats on 10 years !!!

[Tessie]

Congrats on 10 years!!! I sure hope you have 10 more. I just found your blog today while on pinterest. I haven't decided on a favorite post yet because I haven't gotten very far. I can't wait to browse your blog all the way to the beginning. It may take sometime but when I find a favorite blog, I do intend to look at every post.

Thanks for the chance to win some goodies.

[Linda Huxtable]

Congrats on this 10 year blog anniversary. I go to you every morning for inspiration. I especially enjoyed your z fold Floral Phrases cards this past year. And I loved your video recording your million dollar in sales.Fabulous!

[Linda]

Happy ten years. I remember when you showed how to "smash" the pop bottle tops or whatever they're called a few years back. I love all your cards.

Congratulations on your milestone. I found you on Facebook and I love your creations!

[karenladd]

Wow!! Ten years of blogging is something to celebrate! I knew of you, and became a customer, several years before I realized that you had a blog. Now I follow you by email and on FB....and always love the technique videos. The little extra tips and hints that you sprinkle throughout the blog and tutorials are so helpful to beginner and intermediate crafters both. You have a warm and welcoming approach, so it's no wonder that you've been successful. I have too many favorite blog posts to list, but one of my favorites was your craft room tour and organizing tips. Hoping to see you blogging for another 10 years!!

[Mary Anne Schnettgoecke]

Congrats on 10 years of blogging!! I am new to your blog. I saw a preview of your stamp set to commemorate your million in sales and thought it was beautiful. I wanted to know more about you and your journey. I found your blog and I am hooked! Your videos are terrific!

[Julie Schoonover]

Happy 10 years! I know you read all of these posts. You are very much loved by your customers and viewers. I only discovered your talent just about 3 months ago. I so enjoy your videos and your creations. Keep up the good work! God Bless!

[Janet Doll]

Patty,
I have been following you for many years very quietly. I Love All Your Cards and Projects and I also Love the Part on how You have helped me organize my Stamp Room. You told me about Stamp n Storage and Office Supplies so I can organize All my Papers even my DSP! Thank you Patty for All You Do :)

[shartl]

I had no idea you'd been blogging for 10 years! I only discovered craft blogs about 5 years ago but I have been following you on Facebook for awhile now. My first stamps were Stampin Up, and I still love their products...so it's a no-brainer to follow you. I'm still kind of a beginning stamper so I always appreciate your video step-by-step tutorials. Seeing the steps makes it much easier for me to follow and I get inspired at the same time. One of my favorite videos was your Stitched Framelet Christmas tags. I also loved your tip on using sharpies to color candy dots and rhinestones...genius!

[Terry DuMoulin]

OMG, I don't remember when ,or how, I started following you, but it has been a Great ride watching you and learning from you...Congrats on your 10 years of Happiness !!!!!

[Brenda Moehlig]

Gosh Patty, I can't remember how long I have followed you or if I found you via YouTube or here first. I think it was YouTube. Well I do remember a coral flower card and a helpful tip on how do store washi tape. It was such a great tip that I then went and watched all your storage videos lol. Best wishes. Happy anniversary. I see why you're so successful.

[Elizabeth Brammer]

Hi Patty, I've been following you for about a year now. Love seeing your ideas and your creations. I would love to win some blogcandy!!

[S. Ferguson]

I love your blog! My favorite part of your blog is when you share your beautiful flowers from your garden! I know that isn't stamping related, but they are sooooo beautiful. Thanks for sharing!

[Randee S]

Congrats on 10 years of blogging, Patty. I started following about a year ago. Not sure how I found you, but I have really enjoyed your post. Thanks for sharing with us.

[Beth K. Mills]

Congratulations on your 10 year milestone!! I have enjoyed and used many of your creations over the last 5 years that I have been following you. Here's to many more posts with incredible cards and techniques!!

[Reisa Pentz]

I think it has been 7 years since I first found you and started following you. I love your projects and have done many of them. CONGRATULATIONS on your 10 years helping so many people craft and here's to another 20 or more years.
Thanks for all you do

[Alicia W.]

Congrats Patty! I don't remember when I started following your blog but I have enjoyed a lot of the posts. My favorite stamping ones would have to be the outfits you made with the dress dies. My other favorite would be the lovely roses when my grass is brown. My daughter loves the squirrels. Thanks for sharing it all!

[Jennifer K.]

Wow! 🎉Congratulations Patty! Another wonderful milestone for you!
It's been at least 5 years (or more) since I've been following you and your blog. A SU demo told me about your blog.
You are part of my daily/morning internet routine and I love to see what you created and hear about everything going on in your life!
My favorites are your Christmas🎄 & Winter🐧 ☃ posts, it's my favorite time of year!
☘May you be blessed with many more wonderful years with family, friends and creativity!

[Janet Mack]

Happy 10 year anniversary. I have been following for maybe a year and I love watching your videos. I probably found you from a pin. Hope you have many more years in blog land.

[Sue Martin]

Over the years, I've found your blog to be a "happy place"! Thanks!
I think my favorite posts would be the ones where you made Project Life boxes into note card holders. Lovely!

[Johna Rosser]

wow! congratulations on this big milestone! I have read your posts for so long. I don't even know how long. I love your creative ideas and always look to your page first to see what's new. Maybe it was Pinterest, but it feels like I have followed your SU posts longer than that. I love your creativity. Thank you for sharing it with us!

[Charlotte]

Congratulations. My favorite blog was the one where you made valentine cards for your son and husbands office. I was so touched that they both called you and told you that the office staff wanted cards too

[Elaine H]

I first heard about you 15 years ago from a demonstrator who said you had helped her with ideas. About three years ago, I wondered if you were still a demonstrator. I searched and easily found your blog, which I have followed ever since. One of my favorite posts was your gift card holders made from the kraft bags.

[Janet Swofford]

Happy Blogaversary !!! I have been following you almost 10 years and I love the inspiration that I find here! One of my favorite things I learned from you was when you had the tutorial on water coloring roses! I loved the results and I still use that technique often! Thank you for all of the inspiration and for the chance to win the awesome blog candy!!!
