my family and I have experienced many blessings.

My hubby and I went to Disney Land for the first time during our marriage and for the first time in my whole life in December of 08. Then we went back for our 9th Wedding Anniversary in February earlier this year.

Each of our three children turned a year older, and so did I!

I began working with 3 fantastic rubber stamp companies in July, Belles ‘n Whistles and Susana’s Custom Art and Card Design here in the States, and Ladybug and Friends in Norway. And I continued my exciting designing for rubber stamps venture with the very popular Whiff of Joy Stamps in Switzerland.

It has been a wonderful and productive year and I am both thankful and amazed by how much good has been accomplished in the short matter of 365 days.

But I couldn’t enjoy half of the fulfillment I feel without the incredible support from those of you who love my designs. Thank you for the joy that you bring to me through your letters and your comments. I love reading the posts you leave under each of the Blog Candies I feature, and I only wish that I could offer something to each of you, other than my profound heart felt thanks and my love to you.

Happy Holidays and a Very Merry Christmas to each of you. And when Christmas is over, I will be launching another sweet Blog Candy Give Away for your sweet tooth and to kick off another glorious New Year!

Always Your Joyful Artist,

xx Elisabeth
