I'll be blogging every other day instead of daily.
(I'll probably sneak extra posts in there though!) ;O)
(I'll probably sneak extra posts in there though!) ;O)
I've been feelin' a little burnt out health-wise for a while & been racking my brain about whether or not to change my blogging schedule. I've finally come to a conclusion: less is more. What I mean is that I can do more if I blog less, LOL. ;O)
Why? I've been falling behind in blurfin' (droolin' over & commenting on blog buddy's blogs)...I get a fair amount of requests for custom templates and I'm slipping behind in that area too...I've been feeling like I'm in a flower-card makin' rut...So, I'm making time to create more templates 'n' techniques & to try and get more funky with my style. (Plus, I just may write that book or start video tutorials, heehee) :O)
What you can expect around here for the next couple of months:
Techniques & Tutorials:
I'm lookin' forward to having more time to experiment with crazy stuff & hopefully find some nifty results to share with you. :O)
Paper Garden Projects Designs:
I've never been so excited about stamping since I got my hands on Paper Garden Projects stuff. I just ordered a whole whack of stamps & goodies and I'm super excited that Cathy has asked me to make some goodies with the new kits for Christmas & the Holidays! (Wait until you see how CUTE they are!) :O)
More Big ol' Link Lists:
I've been workin' on some good ones with lots of templates & tutorials.
Maybe some Scrapbookin' (!?!):
I am a BIG chicken when it comes to scrapbooking, but I have been drooling over some peoples gorgeous creations lately. I am really wanting to get into it, so you might see a bit of that.
So I'll see you every other day & I hope that you still be here. :O)
Stampin' Hugs,
P.S. That photo up top is a real grape that my aunt Kat found staring at her while we were on vacation, ROFL!

I for one will look forward to each and every post you make. I understand the need for more time! Thanks for everything you share and spending so much time on all of us - I know I appreciate it!
Well, I sure hope she didn't eat that grape; it'd bring in a small fortune on eBay! Trust me, I'm a trained professional ...
I hear ya Mel-a-Licious ... this daily bloggin' is becoming more and more of a chore. I've been thinkin' of doing the exact same thang.
I'll miss your daily posts but we can still be silly together via email! And every other day is a nice workable schedule ... one I jess might adopt fer my own self!
No matter how often you do or don't blog, you're still huggable, wonderful Mel-a-Licious to me!!
Now rest and kick back with some of that down time, huh?!?
~Huggies!
Hey Mel!! I have the same issue with my blogs. . .I make all these quicky cards just so I can post something on a daily basis. A lot of times, I don't like what I end up making.
Quite honestly, I don't know how else you can improve your blog and projects. . .they're over the top already. You have the most extensive blog with all the details, tutorials and awesome projects. But. . .considering it's you, I'm sure there's a lot more creative stuff churning in your head. I can't wait to see all your new stuff!!

You are soooo funny Mel!! However I have to admit that the grape does look like its staring though! LOL
I can totally relate to your new blogging schedule. Blogging everyday can be a bit hectic. I'm looking forward to your tutorials and projects! Take care and have a great day Mel:)
Now, that's a plan!!!! Good luck with ALL your endeavors! I would definitely buy your book!
I will certainly miss seeing your stuff every day, but no one can keep up with such wonderfully creative stuff as you do when they have to turn it out like a machine. I will look forward to whatever you create, whatever your schedule for posting.
Hope you had a great visit and feel wonderfully recovered.

No matter what - I always look forward to and enjoy all of your posts :) You do whats best for you!
xo, margie
I have to say you make me feel human, Mel. I wondered how you and all of the others do it. I thought maybe the voices were talking to you all more than me.....just kidding. I sometimes post daily, but only when it works. I think you will like it. I wouldn't miss your posts for anything.
You'll be appreciated however often you post!
