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.
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.
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.
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!
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.
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!
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.
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!
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.
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.
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.
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.
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!
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!
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.
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 12×12 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!!!
the numbers are staggering…congratulations…I think I have looked at all 3000 posts!!!

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

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!
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!
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!!
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
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!
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.
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.
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!
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.
Congratulations on 10 years!! Love your blog and videos.
I am relatively new to your blog—I appreciate all your tips and as a BC survivor REALLY appreciate your new Courage stamp set!!
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.
I stumbled upon you from another stampin up demonstrators blog where she had cased a project of yours. Been stalking you ever since. Congrats!
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!
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.
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.
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 🙂
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!
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!
I’ve been following you for years and still look forward to each one of your posts. Your ideas are always fresh and exciting.
Congrats on 10 years. You too a super great job and I love your posts. Thank you for sharing all you do.
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!
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.
Congratulations! Happy 10th anniversary! I have only been following you for a little over a year!
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.
Congratulations on your 10th anniversary and your other SU awards. Well deserved!
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!
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’.
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 😉
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!!!
Hi Patty,
Congratulations on 10 years & all of your success over the years. I always enjoy your blog & videos.
Mary
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.
Congrats, Patty! I have been following you for about six month, especially daily on instagram! Thanks for the daily inspiration!
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!
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
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! ???
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.
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!
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.
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!
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 !!!
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.
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!
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!
tina
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!!
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!
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!
Congratulations on 10 years! I an new to your blog. I saw you in action at OnStage in San Diego and love your creativity.
Congratulations on your 10 year aniversary!!! I have been following yuo for a few years and always enjoy your videos and tips. One of my favorit videos was the Botanicals Card set. I just loved it as I did the DSP . I made a few to give away and they loved them. What a great milestone you have achieved!!
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 🙂
I just recently found you on Facebook. I sure do wish I had run across you sooner. You are so creative and generous to share it with all of us. Congratulations on your 10 years of blogging. I look forward to following you for another 10 years.
Congrats on your ten years of blogging! I have been following you for about a year. Whenever I run across an awesome SU demonstrator online, I add them to my bookmarks and follow them on FB so I can see all the wonderful inspiration you come up with. I have been a hobby demo for a little over a year and really enjoy seeing your posts! Thanks for the chance to win this awesome blog candy Patty!
Congratulations Patty on your 10 yrs. Of blogging….
Great job!! I’ve been following you for over 5 years. I love your projects. They’re well done and inspirational; instructions are easy to follow. Thank you for sharing your ideas. I love reading about your accomplishments and seeing articles on your family. Keep it up and thanks again!
I found you when someone mentioned you in a post and I looked you up.
Congrats, Patty! I have enjoyed your blogs and posts going on 3 years, now. You have wonderful ideas and projects for us to follow. I hope you are blessed with another 10 years of blogging! Thanks for your great cards and ideas, they really help when I am in a funk and can’t come up with my own ideas!
Patty, I have enjoyed your blog posts so much through the years, and talking about your posts with my demonstrator, who also is a follower. Congratulations to you for this milestone and all you have accomplished.
Congrats Patty on 10 years of blogging! I was referred to you by a friend who had come across your blog and have been a fan ever since! I look forward to seeing more great ideas on your blog.
Ten years! Wow, I hope you keep it up, I love watching your video tutorials especially can’t really pick a favorite because they are all so good. I have been a faithful fan for a few years now so I sure hope you keep up the good work!! Thanks for all the inspiration!!!
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!
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 !!!!!
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.
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!!
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!
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.
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!!
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
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!
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!
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.
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!
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!
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
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.
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!!!
CONGRATULATIONS on 10 years of blogging.
I enjoy your posts, ideas,tips, and heartfelt comments.
Karen
Congrats on the amazing achievements Patty! 10 years goes by in the blink of an eye, and look at all you’ve done! How wonderful to look back over blog posts to chronicle your journey. I’m hoping I can say the same 9 years from now!
My favorite post would have to be hearing about the design process and inspiration behind Ribbon of Courage. It’s one of my must haves come June 1st! Thank you for putting this together. As someone who suffers from PTSD among other ailments, it’s something close to my heart as well. Bless you and your mother’s influence!
Congrats on 10 years of blogging. I have been visiting your blog for the past 7 years….since my mother came to live with us. She passed away this March. I have learned so much from your blog and enjoy reading what goes on in your life. Your tutorials are amazing. Keep up the good work.
Congrats! That is quite an honor. Thanks so very much for all of the talent, techniques, tutorials, tips and videos you share with the rest of us! You rock!
Happy 10 years with Stampin’ Up! I found your blog about a year ago through a post on Pinterest. I have created many of your cards…thanks for being creative and sharing it! I love the paper share idea and how well it is packaged. It’s a great deal and helps me decide if I want…need…the large package and I usually do “need” it! My favorite posts are the ones about organizing. You have such easy to follow ideas. I have used many of those ideas and my stampin’ room is much improved. Thanks for sharing and caring.
Hi Patty,
Just wanted to say congratulations on your l0 year blogging. The numbers just stagger the mind.
You are just so awesome. You always have the best ideas, videos, tips and tricks. I love how you share your family news, SU news involving you, and your gorgeous flowers. I knew about you a few years ago when my daughter, who was in demonstrator training, ask me if I knew Patty Bennett. At that time I looked you up on the internet, and I have peeked in on you every day. I always wish I lived next door. You feel like a friend, and I always wish I could drop in and help you out when you have huge jobs like paper shares, getting catalogs mailed, etc. I hope that your journey with SU is a long, long, one and wish you much more success! Thank you for everything.
Love and best wishes sent your way,
Karren
Hi Patty,
I first discovered you on FaceBook when you talked about re-doing your storage ideas to be more efficient. That sent me to Stamp n Storage!!!!! YES both were so helpful ? Then I started following your blog and have saved those super videos !!!!! I love all the alternatives when using the stamp sets. All I can say is a big THANK YOU!!!!!
I came to know you from your first YouTube crafting videos in 2008! Times fun when you’re having flies (remember that SU stamp set?)! Salute on your Blog-Anniversary!

Mindy Gray is my Stampin’Up consultant and speaks highly if you. Naturally I had to look you up. So glad I did. You pop up daily in my inbox and if I need an extra spark, I go to your site. Thanks for scrapping/sharing life with us.
Hi Patty – I found you not that long ago when you reached your one million dollar mark! It was so fun to watch your celebration. I’ll be watching when you hit 2 million!
Congratulations on your 10th anniversary. I have no idea how long I have been following your blog. I know it has bee several years. I think I probably found you on a blog hop. I always get your posts late afternoon. Thanks for the great posts.
Congratulations on 10 years! What an accomplishment! There is no way I can point out ONE favorite blog post! I am inspired and learn so much! You have even given me permission to case some of your cards for my hostess group! They are always a big hit! Your flowers are beautiful! Thanks so much for all you do! It is so much appreciated!
Congrats! I like your style and ease of card making in your videos. Keep up the crafty work!?✂️?
I found you when I was looking for sneak peeks of SU! catalogs. And you know what? I loved when you blogged about shopping for storage containers.
Hi Patty!
I just signed up for your blog today. I found out about you a couple of months ago and I’m not sure how that happened. I have been getting info from you on facebook since then. I have visited your site and have watched some of your videos and have enjoyed them and seeing the cards you come up with. Congrats on your “million $$” stamp set! I can’t wait to see the cards you come up using stamps from the new catalog.
Congrats Patty!
I have been reading your blog for at least 9 years. I love to see the flowers from your garden. Since I lived in the bay area for 21 years I know it is a great place to have a green thumb. Sorry I wasn’t a stamper when I lived in the bay area or I would have been a steady customer and also attended some of your classes. You’ve really grown with your experience in the last 10 years as I remember your blog when you first started – much, much better now.
Congratulations!!!!!! I found your page when I was looking for new product hauls. I was hooked and think I have watched most of your videos. They are fabulous and you always inspire me to get moving and makes those cards. I cannot wait to see what the next ten years brings. ?
Congratulations on your 10th anniversary-thanks for sharing your creativity (and projects!) with us. My absolute favorite was a more recent project-using a 12 x 12 piece of DSP to make a folder for cards (or to use as a gift card holder). Made quite a few of those for gift giving.
Love your blog. You share so many great ideas. Recently I really like the Eastern palace blogs. I actually am not sure how I found you and probably have been following you for a year or so. Have taken advantage of several of your paper shares. Thanks again for all of your inspiration and congratulations on 10 years of blogging! Would love the awesome blog candy!!!
my favorite blog
sharing the watercolor paintings of Christmas that your dad gave you so beautiful
Congrats on your blog anniversary
I found one of your cards on Pinterest and I was impressed with your work. Signed up for your emails and have benefited from watching your videos.
Congratulations on your 10 years of blogging!!!

Congratulations on all your success over the last 10 years. I’m not for sure how long its been that I have followed your blog….I’m thinking maybe 3 years or so. It was about that time I started making cards and following many blogs on line to get some inspiration. Your blog is one of my top 10 favorites for tutorials and card ideas from Stampin’Up. I have participated in your paper shares a couple of times and have enjoyed that opportunity to own some of all the DSP. Thank you for this wonderful chance to win this blog candy. Wishing you continued success.
I have been following your blog for around a year or more. Not sure how I found you, but probably Pinterest. The best thing about your blog, other than the beautiful cards, is the way you give us Stampin Up information as soon as it comes out. Keep up the good work. The. Blog Candy looks amazing.
Hi Patty,
Congratulations on 10 years of blogging! I started following you after watching one of your videos. I also lost my mom 15 years ago – wish I would have had the opportunity to blog, just to tell some about my day, like you did.
Congrats on 10 years! And many more years to come. I want to say I have been following you for a couple of years now. I had been off work sick and took up being a Stampin’ Up Demonstrator just for the discount. I want to say I found you by surfing. I started coping some of your cards because they were so adorable.
How wonderful to earn a living doing what you love. I cannot remember if I found you on Pinterest or on a blog hop but I have so enjoyed the projects that you have shard with us.
I don’t know how I found your blog, but I’m glad I did.
Patty, congratulations on your bog-a-versary!! Wow!1 Ten years!! You have spread so much joy, love and knowledge in that time. I have been following your blog for quite a long time and I’m not sure when I started reading your blog, but it was most likely a blog hop that helped me find your great tips and projects. Thanks so much for the Halloween cards and techniques you have shared. I love the autumn and all of the great holidaze it brings! Here’s to another decade of inspiration and squirrels!! LOL Thanks for your generous blog candy package!
What an amazing milestone. I don’t know how many years I’ve been following you but so happy I found you. You inspire me.
Congratulations! I haven’t been following your blog for 10 years, but sure wish I had been. I found you a couple of years ago, I’m pretty sure from a blog hop that I stumbled upon. I love your video tutorials. Some of my favorite recent posts were the video tour of your crafting space and your Ribbon of Courage post on 4/21. I loved the background story about your mom and your trip to SU! The picture of you being congratulated in the atrium at SU! is just amazing. I can’t imagine what that must have been like to experience first hand. Thanks for sharing yourself and your creativity!
Patty,
First of all, congratulations on another milestone for you!! Woo Hoo!!
I have known you since convention in 1999. Through the yearly conventions, you kept going on stage, I knew then I wanted to be just like you!! Every year I would continue to see you on stage, and I said one year, I have got to swap cards with you. I found you and asked if we could trade cards, and you graciously accepted my card, even though I was growing through the stages of learning how to create awesome cards. I cherished that swap for so many years……I’m cleaning out everything now and it would be fun if I found it!
I have been following you just about 2008. My memorable item I loved you to create was the little book you colaberated with Cathy Palaris (sp) made out of cookie envelopes! I loved the fact that I won that cute kit to make.
Patty, I wish you all the best in everything you do, you rock!!!!
Congratulations, Patty. I don’t remember how long it’s been that I found one of your YouTube videos on how to use the crimper to make lace. And you continue to amaze me with your tutorials, your creativity and the awesome projects you share with your followers.
Here’s to another 10 years. We love you!
Congratulations on your 10th anniversary of your blog!! I’ve been following your blog for less than a year and am sad to know I’ve missed 9 years of following you!! I want to thank you for your specially designed stamp set “Ribbon of Courage” in honor of your million dollar sales. I especially love the greetings included and such a wonderful way to reach out to others. My team is planning a service project using the stamp set bundle and are planning to have a make and take booth at our local Relay for Life event. Best wishes for another 10 years blogging!
Lola
Hi Patty,
Congratulations on 10 yrs of blogging. One of my favorites was you announcing your Ribbons of Courage stamp set. Being a 22 month survivor, I can’t wait for it to become available. I can hardly wait for June 1. I was 74 when I was told I had breast cancer. My doctor told me she couldn’t believe how well I handled it. I didn’t think I handled it that well. But I lived to see another day. Thank you for all that you do. I look forward to your beautiful cards that come my way.
Congrats! I can’t wait to get the stamp set you designed. It’s great cuz I live in a military town and I’m a teacher. I’m new to the Stampin Up world, about 6 months. I found you via YouTube, the first video I watch was the serene senery cards. Loved them.
I’ve been following you so long that I can’t even remember how I found you! It’s difficult to even choose a favorite blog post as it seems I get something from every single one of them! I appreciate you sharing so much!
Congratulations on your 10-year anniversary! I’ve been following your blog for over 2 years and have learned a lot from your generous sharing of information. Thank you!
I’ve been following you for about 6 months. Also, you were a guest on my Up lines monthly training a few weeks ago. Thanks for sharing your knowledge & experience. You are a great inspiration.
Congratulations Patti! I think I either found you on a blog hop or from a you tube video. Your blog is always so helpful and informative. I love how you share your normal mis-adventures as you try various things. Hope you have another 10 years of sharing with us.
Oh my… so many favorites from your website. I have come here many many times! I love the beaded scissor charms and have also used your watercolor roses technique. Keep up the GREAT work!!! Thanks so much for sharing.
Patty, I found your blog about 4 years ago when I first started making cards. I found it through one of your cards someone had pinned on Pinterest. I have been hooked ever since and enjoy so much all of the helpful tips and techniques y out share with all your followers. Thanks and congratulations.
Well Patty I guess I have been following for about 3 years, my favorite is mostly all of them and I enjoy all your stories. Keep up the work.
Congrats on your 10 years of blogging! I was first drawn to your blog through your videos. I’m always looking for new ideas for cards and your videos have given me inspiration to try new techniques! Thanks for the time and energy you put into your blog and the inspiration you provide to all papercrafters!
I have followed your blog for around 3 years now and I enjoy your creativeness, enthusiasm and leadership with SU. Thank you for a chance to win this wonderful blog candy!
Congratulations! That’s a long time to be stamping and blogging. I’ve been stamping for more than 20 years as a hobby. I had your blog marked and visited it frequently, then I lost all of my stamping bookmarks, got away from Stamping Up and lost track of you for a good while. I got back into buying from Stamping Up, found you again and subscribed to your blog. Thank you for sharing your tips, ideas, techniques and cards over the years. I look forward to more inspiration from you. Thanks for a chance to win some blog candy.
Congrats on your 10th Blog-aversary!! That’s quite an accomplishments!! You should be very proud of yourself. I only recently found your blog and enjoy it very much. I love your style of card and look forward to reading your blog. Enjoy your day!
Really enjoy your blog! My favorites are about your room organization! I need all the help I can get! Also, I still enjoy the calendar you published of your Dad’s watercolor paintings!
Yikes – 10 years!! I have been stamping about 10 years; following your blog for the last 4 or 5 years. One of the things I like best about your blogs is the way you super-impose arrows and comments on the step-by-step pictures of your projects, so we know exactly where to snip – glue – fold – etc. Makes me braver as I try a card or project. Though I didn’t recognize any of the specific cards in your look-back, I did recognize some of the products – ribbons, DSP, colors. Some of them I still miss, but I have to remember that they were replaced with equally exciting product.
Wow!!’ 10 years! Congratulations! I found you this past year when looking into project life! My favorite post was how you organized your cards! I love your organizational ideas! Thanks for sharing your talent with us!
Congrats on your 10 year milestone! I’ve been following your blog for several years and while I can’t remember exactly how or when I found you I’m sure it was while searching for inspiration for a specific SU set. Thanks for the inspiration you provide.
Congratulations on 10 years of your wonderful blog! I have been following you for almost ten years. I joined Stampin’Up over 8 years ago as one of your downline. Your blog gets better every year! 🙂
Love when you show your beautiful roses!! They just make my heart so happy. Love see your dad’s pictures, seeing your son grow up into a young man. All your lovely cards. Thank you for sharing your life. Happy Mother’s Day!!
Congrats Patty on your Blogaversary. I LAVA all your ideas and creations. I really enjoyed your diagonal cut one sheet wonder tutorial. Keep up the great job.
Happy ten year Anniversary!! I always check your blog and the amazing projects that you share with us. My favorite was your new Ribbon of Courage card with the set that you designed. Can’t wait for June 1, when I can order that set.
Congratulations! I’ve been following you for at least five years. I too have learned so much from your videos and blog posts I love the gift card holders from the Kraft bags, I’ve made them over and over for Christmas and birthdays, but I also love the sets of cards from dsp that you show. Keep inspiring us with your fabulous projects. Thank YOU !
I’ve been following you since 2011, I look forward in to the email blog new cards, new colors, new stamp set, bundles, paper shares, I follow you on FB and Pinterest.. I love the blog candy, the videos,
Thank you for your inspiration and techniques
Congrats on you 10 years! Looking forward to the new catalog I’ve seen lots of
Nice frameless and thinlets I want already.
Wow, Patty, that is awesome that you’ve been blogging for ten years!
One of the blog posts you shared with us was converting a Project Life card box into a beautiful note card holder, decorated with DSP. i love seeing fresh uses for something that might otherwise have been cast aside. Thanks for all the inspiration over the years!

Congrads, I found u about a yr ago, love all your ideas and for always sharing…
Hi Patty I’ve been following your blog for some month jsut as I discover SU. I love to see your organistion refill ink pad with ennemels dot..lol.Congrats for th e 10years
CONGRATULATIONS! 10 years that is awesome. You must have started about the same time that I was first introduced to Stampin Up. Unfortunately, I didn’t find your blog until last year and I have so enjoyed your tutorials and your willingness to share your craft with fellow stampers. I thank you for your many cards of inspiration as well as all the techniques I have learned from your blog.
Congratulations on 10 years. I don’t know how long I’ve been following you but I love clicking that email every day. Thanks for all you share with all of us.
Hello Patty and congratulations on 10 years of blogging. I have just come across it (May 2017) and I am excited to see all of the resources you provide. Not only are you talented, but generous to share as well. Keep up the great work!
Congrats on your blog. I have been reading your blog for 6 years and it was great to see some blasts from the past…..especially interesting how the stamps and punches have become more sophisticated over time. I enjoy your inspiration daily.
Congratulations! I found your blog “by accident” about 5 years ago just doing an online search. Yours is one of the few that I follow. Such wonderful creative ideas. Over the years, besides your stamping card posts, I’ve enjoyed seeing your California flowers (especially your roses) in the spring whenever we, on the east coast, haven’t yet even begun to “green up”.
Congratulations on your 10 years… I have been with you for a few long years and I found you on my Facebook…
Patty, I found you when I watched one of your haul videos on Youtube several years ago. You were so well-organized and articulate that I immediately posted a thank you comment. I’ve been a fan ever since!
Hi Patty,
I found your blog about four years ago while looking for cards in Pinterest. From that first link I signed up for your email updates. And of course, I checked out your whole website. Love all the tutorials and tips you give on stamping. Thank you so much for taking time to blog and sharing your talent. You have been a big help to my stamping hobby.
Congratulations on your 10 year blogging anniversary. i subscribed to your blog many years ago and still enjoy checking in with you every day. My favorites are when you show new techniques. Thank you for the opportunity to win the blog candy.
Hi Patty- congratulations on your blogging milestone. That is certainly something to celebrate. I found you on Utube while surfing stamping channels and have been following you ever since. I love all of your ideas, tips, and different techniques. Happy blogging!
I have been following your blog for a long time. I can’t think of a specific post that would be my favorite but I always look forward to your ideas when new products are introduced. Your projects are always innovative and sometimes outside of the box compared to everyone else. Congrats on 10 years of blogging!
Patty, CONGRATULATIONS on 10 years of your blog! I am not sure how I found you but, I am so glad that I did. Your cards and projects are AMAZING! You give me so much inspiration.
HAPPY BLOGAVERSARY!!!! I found you maybe three years ago by doing a search on the web for something to do with Stampin’ Up – can’t remember what now. But I have learned so much from you and you are so nice to answer my questions when I can’t figure something out. You are great at what you do – thank you for what you do – and continue what you are doing!!! Congratulations!
Hi Patty: Ten years – that’s great and a real milestone. Just think what you have accomplished in that decade. I like your video tutorials very much because of your simple and informative teaching style. And the card above that is all white with the large bloom and embellishment in the center is gorgeous and I don’t think I have ever seen that one. Very elegant, and of course, because it’s flower, I know we share that love for sure. Congratulations.
I have been a fan for about 6 years and enjoy your blog every day. You are so inspirational and I can count on you to have the most update information. Your creations are always enjoyable and easy to make with your directions. Thank you for all you do.
Congratulations Patty !! I have really enjoyed reading your blog and seeing your pictures.
Congrats to you!! Not sure when I began following your blog but you are on my favorites list and I check your blog every morning! Enjoy your style and easy to follow directions!! Thanks so much for sharing your flowers, family, and creativity!!
I can’t believe it’s been 10 years. You have had so many great posts it’s hard to narrow down my favorite. I have always lotyour 3D projects. You have always done a great job of showing a variety of SU projects not just cards.
I have been following you for several years so there is no way I could pick just one favorite idea you have demonstrated!! They are all fabulous so Happy Anniversary and keep up the awesome creativeness!!
Good Morning Patty,,,,, Oh wow, A favorite is hard to pick. I LOVE everything since I have started following you. I check your blog everyday. I don’t know exactly how long I have been following you because I haven’t been ordering SU that terribly long,, maybe 3-4 yrs. Could be longer. I found you on Facebook, and WOW am I ever glad I did. I truely LOVE everything you post. I have kept EVERY single card you have sent me. You are truely an inspiration. Congratulations on 10 yrs.
Congratulations! I started following you after a friend recommended your blog. A group of us have been paper crafting together for over 10 years, so we probably have followed you from the beginning. I’m sure we have “copied” your designs many times. Love all of your designs and willingingness to share. Some of us need inspiration! I love the “community” of paper crafters! Thanks for your inspiration!
Congratulations on 10 years of blogging!! I have been following you for about 6 years, when I became a hobby demo and started looking for ideas for all the stamping stuff I was buying. I think my favorite blog post was the one where you are waiting to receive notification of your 1,000,000.00 dollar sales order to come through. With the video that Mary Fish made. Keep up the good work.
Happy Anniversary!! It’s been a few years that I have been following your blog. I love watching your videos and reading the blog. I just love your card designs and you are always so super helpful when I’m stuck on an idea or if I have a question. I know I would be totally lost (stamping-wise) if it wasn’t for you. Here’s wishing you another 10+ years.
I started reading your blog in 2013. The post that I think of the most. Is your shares post. I think that was a great idea. May 18th 2013 post: catalogue product share. What a wonderful way to sample the products. Thanks for everything!
Congratulations on your 10 year Blog anniversary. I have been following you for many years. So long that I cannot remember how I even found you. I do know that I have enjoyed every moment. You offer so many ideas and your videos are the best for learning the may ways to use Stampin’ Up products. Here is to many more years of many more anniversaries!
Congrats on 10 years Patty! I’m not sure how long I have followed you but it has been a number of years. I always love getting the email each day and checking out what new creative thing you’ve done. And I enjoy seeing pictures of your family and your beautiful flowers! I remember when you showed how to take the wheels stamp images apart to use individually. You have always given such practical tips! Thanks for a chance to win!
Hi Patty,
I have been following your blog for several years now. You always provide wonderful inspiration. I have many favorite posts, including watercolor wings and the fos builder punch posts. Thank you for sharing your talents with everyone. Congratulations on your success.

Congrats Patty! 10 years WOW. I think I found your blog from a blog hop but I’m not sure, all I know is I look forward to your posts so keep going!! 🙂
Congrats Pattty. I am a “newbie” I have been enjoying and learning with you for a little over 2years. Found you when I was searching on Pinterest. So Thankful.
Loved your post on April 25, 2016. Learned from your video on Stamping on Embossed Images. Thank you for all the details.
(I feel your missing your Mom. My Mom passed in 1978, still missing her so much.)
Happy Blogaversary! It is indeed a wonderful event to celebrate. I have only been writing my own blog for 2 years and know the effort it takes to think up things to write about. I have been following for for many years. I am sure I “found” you from the SURAS yahoo group. My favorite post (although there has been many!) was the tutorial for how to “watercolor” the Fifth Avenue Floral roses. I even had my 3 and 4 year old granddaughters use that technique to make a Mother’as Day card for their Mommy. They did the painting, and I did the cutting. You have always been so generous with your ideas, and materials it has been an inspiration to follow you!
Well Patty! Congratulations on 10 years. That is not an easy thing to do. Of course, my favorite project of yours was the box of stamping tape. I bought several and they were gifts that people loved and I loved them so much! You are clever and you have an eye for style and I love all that you do. You are always wonderful about replying and you amaze me with how much you are able to produce. Thanks for sharing all these years and I have NO idea how long I have been following you! I know I have shared your site with many of my friends. They all love you too.
Congrats on your successful 10 years of blogging! I loved reading your blog post recently about your $1,000,000 stamp set Ribbon of Courage. Can’t wait to order it come June 1! 🙂
I can’t remember how I found you or even how long ago. I know I liked your style and wanted more creative ideas for my cards. I have been using Stampin Up products for over 10 years, starting with the Simply Scrappin’ kits. I have kept all my catalogs, the first one being the Oct. 2003-July 2004. Thanks for being so sweet to give away products!
Hey, Patty! Congrats on your blog anniversary! You are an excellent communicator and teacher, and I look forward to each post. Thank you for all the thought, time, and effort you put into each one. My favorite posts involve your watercolor lessons using sets like Rose Wonder. I appreciate you sharing about your dad’s talent and tips you’ve learned from him over the years. More recently, I’ve enjoyed your posts on your new set Ribbon of Courage. Thank you for coming up with such a wonderful idea and for sharing such great designs for using it! I also love hearing about your husband, son, father, and mother. You write from your heart, and I appreciate you personalizing your posts. Thank you, Patty, for touching my life!
woot woot! i was looking for random SU inspiration one day years ago and your name come up in the search. i’m a fairly recent subscriber to your blog but i would always go to your website for great ideas. so thank you! looking forward to your next chapter.
What an achievement! Congratulations on 10 years of teaching to all of us! I have been following you for more than five years (after I found your blog from another SU demonstrator). You have taught me so much through the years. You have accomplished an incredible amount and touched thousands of lives! How many people can say that? You are a JOY PRODUCER! May God bless you always!
Patty, I have been following you for almost as long as you have been blogging. I heard about your blog from other demonstrators in the Denver area. You have inspired in so many ways with your card layouts, color combinations, combination of products, etc.
Happy 10 year anniversary! I love your job! 🙂
WOW how time flys when we are doing what we love. I check your blog out every day and have for many years. Congratulations on all your success. I make cards for charity (St. Jude) and you have been a source of inspiration. Thank You for sharing your talents.
Hi Patty,
Congratulations!! 10 years is amazing and I’ve been following you for about 7 years. I really appreciate all of you ideas and inspirations. Thanks so much!!
I have been involved, either through selling, using, or just enjoying Stampin Up for years! I have followed your blog for at least 5 years now. I may not have as much time to stamp and create these days, but I haven’t lost an ounce of love for these products and the beautiful things you create. Thanks for all the inspiration!
I was introduced to you from Trudy (can’t even remember her last name)! LOL
You invited her and her downline to one of your Luv2Stamp groups. And I fell in love with your creativity and you! 🙂
So, I’ve know you since my son was about 2 yrs old. He is 17 now…so 15 years!
congrats on your milestone. I love your blog and how you share so freely with others
Patty, what a celebration and to have kept the blog going so strong for ten years! You are an amazing, crafter wife and mother, gardener and blogger. I found you through Cindee as she is my stampin Up Demononstrator. Love your card ideas and tips from crafting to studio tips. and the sharing of your adventures on the SU trips. And thanks for having this blog candy moment! 🙂 To another ten years of blogging and creating!
Colleen
Congratulations, Patty!!!! Here’s to 10 more years!!!! I have followed for many years!!! Loved all the creative Christmas ideas you had using the Cookie Cutter Christmas bundle!!! They are sooo stinking cute!!!
Thank you for the beautiful cards you faithfully send out after every order!!! I’ve saved them all!!!
Keep going…we need your inspiration!!!!
I’ve been following you for a few years and have greatly enjoyed your videos. My favorites have been learning new techniques and then the one where you use one sheet of DSP to make several cards. Congratulations Patty!
Patty- I’ve been following your blog for at least 5 years. I love the pictures of your garden and roses. I also like that many of your cards are easy to make, so that I don’t need to spend hours making one card. Thank you for sharing.
Well when I started stamping I was on the computer and found your web site and never looked back. I have enjoyed learning from you and have followed your career. You have gotten better with each year and your accomplishments are unbelievable. Thank You fro sharing Patty.
My favorite blog post is always whichever your latest one is!
Congratulation Patty! I have been following your blog for a number of years. I am demonstrator (hobbyist) in Las Vegas and always talk about your successes with my upline. I call you Million Dollar Patty!
Hi Patty, Congratulations! I have followed your blog from around 2009 after I moved into a new house and got my studio set up again. I have so appreciated your creative muse, tips, and beautiful creations. Thank you! Sending blessings and joy for your next 10 years of blogging creativeness.
So many milestones for you lately and now a blogaversary! I found you as a demonstrator on SU!’s demo locator and decided a local upline would be best for me (plans didn’t quite work out, it happens) about a year and a half ago. I love your card making posts, so easy to get inspired with the simple ones or the ones with special hints and tips to get more out of any set of dies or stamps. My favorite posts are the ones of your garden! I have no head for greenery myself and love looking at all the brilliant colors that you grow!
congratulations on a great 10 years. I believe I have been following you for maybe 6 years now. How time flys.
One card that comes to mind that you made that I make quite often was called the fold card. You used the Floral phrases stamp set and the paper that was available. Just love the design.
I really appreciate the videos that you make also and gain a lot of knowledge watching these.
Thank you for the opportunity for a chance to win some blog candy.
Congrats Patty, I really don’t remember when I started following your blog but you never cease to amaze me with your incredible talent. I was once one of your down line demos with Jena. I really can’t pick a favorite but if I have too I really love the ones you do for Halloween… I can not wait to see what the next ten years will bring . Thank you for all you have done to make Stampin Up so much fun!!!
Leanne Carr
Congratulations, Patty, on yet another milestone! I have been following your blog for a few years and always enjoy your informative instructions and hearing about your travels and family life! I so enjoyed hearing about your million dollar sales adventure! Thank you for taking the time to demonstrate new products and teach new techniques! Keep up the great work!
Congrats on your 10th blogging anniversary! I have been following you for a few years and really enjoy your posts, especially any that have videos explaining the process of creating your project since I am a visual learner. My most favorite, or should I say the most meaningful, post would be your recent one explaining the Reason behind your creating the stamp set for your million dollar achievement. Such a heart warming story!
I have been visiting your blog for years. I love how organized you are in your craft loft and my favorite post of yours (one of, anyway!) has to be the fun fold card that uses a 2″ circle. Love how it looks so much harder to make than it actually is! Thanks for teaching us all the great fun-folding cards and making it easy to recreate them! Congratulations on your blog and career success!
Wow-that’s pretty awesome! Congrats on your milestone! I am not sure just when I started following you but I have enjoyed your posts for several years now! I check often & love the inspiration you share! I also really enjoy your flower garden posts…we have 2 common interests, paper craft & flower gardens! Thanks for sharing and thanks for the chance to win some awesome goodies!
Wow – ten years of crafting fun! I have been following you for less than a year after finding you by chance on Pinterest. I’ve only been a crafter for about three years so I am still learning. Thank you for being such an inspiration. Here’s to many more years of creativity!
Congratulations on your 10 years of blogging! I have been following you for years, maybe 10, I’m not sure. My favorite post was the one where you showed the Big on Birthdays stamp set with the Inside the Lines dsp. You are why I bought that dsp to make those cards. There have been many times when I have bought a particular stamp set because of your creativity. I love your cards and case them often. Please keep blogging for another 10 years or more!
Congrats on your 10 years of blogging Patty! I’ve been following you for about 4 years or so. I don’t remember how I happened to find you but ever so glad I did! There are way too many post that you have done and there is no way I could ever pick a favorite one. Perhaps I’ll go with your post sharing when you had reached your $1,000,000 Milestone with SU! You are an inspiration and I love learning from you Patty! Have a Super Saturday and a Happy Mother’s Day weekend!

Happy blogverisary! I have been following you about 8 or 9 years or so. I was just looking at SU cards on line and came across your blog and have been hooked since. Thanks for sharing
Congrats on 10 years. I have been following you for about 3 years. One of my favorite posts was your instructions on making diagonal cards.
I only recently found your blog, when mentioned in another blog, but I find great inspiration from your posts. While I am sorry it was the loss of your Mom that started you blogging, sometimes it takes heart-wrenching events to start us on a new course. I am glad you have found comfort – and friends in followers – from your posts. Today is the 30th anniversary of my Mom’s passing and I miss her as if it were yesterday. For some reason completely unknown to me, my children have broken off contact since their Dad and I separated 17 years ago and papercrafting (and reading tons of blogs) have helped fill a void. Also, I joined SU in January and am excited about it. Also. I got a wonderful upline in the process who has not only answered my seemingly thousands of questions but made herself available to take me to visits with my surgeon following a shoulder replacement in March. Still, today is hard, missing my Mom, and tomorrow will be hard, missing Mom and my kids. However, I will busy myself with wonderful inspirational blogs like yours, and be grateful that I have something to fill my time, unlike so many in the senior building where I live.
I am convinced our Moms never really leave us and are always watching over us. I am sure yours is smiling at your lovely post, your generous blog candy and your open sharing. Your blog candy offer is wonderful – so kind of you. I will keep my fingers crossed. I could use some “happy”.
My post somehow got away from me before I could add “Congratultions” on your 10 years of providing inspiratiom to others!
I have been reading your blog for a bout a year. I love all of your projects, they are such an inspiration to me❤️
I’ve been following your blog maybe about a year now….I love checking it daily for new ideas and organization tips!
Congrats on sharing your creativity for 10 (wow) years!
Patty, I learn so much from your designs and videos and I couldn’t begin to pick just one. What I so appreciate about your blogs is that you explain how to create the card or project so clearly and slow enough for me to understand and CASE. Congratulations on your anniversary and hope to celebrate many more with you.
Wow, 10 years! Thank you for all the inspiration over the years. I’ve probably been following you for close to 10 years…your blog is at the top of my bookmark list!
