It has been a while but I think my news will make up for it!

Ok the last month has been hectic and wonderful and uncertain. I am going to be having surgery but I still don't know when so keep me in your thoughts. Wonderful because I was asked by the People at Simple Scrapbooks to be a part of their

DIGITAL SCRAPBOOKING CREATIVE BOARD 2007 For Simple Scrapbooks Digital Magazine. This means that for the year 2007 I will be a part of this amazing group of woman that I really admire.

I was thinking about my journey in creating and the road that has brought me here and there is one person I really have to thank it is my twenty year old son who bought me this awesome computer two years ago next month, that allows me to do the things I do and to my almost 24 year old daughter who helped me upgrade it so it would be even more powerful. You are only as good as the tools you have. If I had not won that contest two years ago for Joann's I would have not been able to afford my digital Rebel camera. So you see life is all about full circle things.

Here I am today sharing with all of you out there that I am a part of something I have always wanted I am still pinching myself here. That I can share my art and be who I am and be proud of those I represent. As a Puerto Rican Woman I am very proud of this, As a wife I am proud, as a mother I am proud. As a Artist I feel I can say hey here I am. It makes the journey so much sweeter when you can share it with those you love. To my girls in Scrapbooking Puerto Rico I hope we continue to grow strong and you are proud of me. To the women who have offered me their friendship through out the years I have been doing this creating thing I want to say Thank you for inspiring me to be the best that I can be. I hope that in the coming months I continue to be inspired and that I create things that show you a little of who I am and what makes me who I am. There is this lady that I so totally love who wrote this to me today. (Your digital work was a big part of my deciding to go digital--so I really do think the kudos are well deserved. ) What is really sweet about this is that when I first saw her work I could not believe the things she could do with her pages. I would stalk her gallery and when she had something published I would look at the details she used in her pages. I am honored to call her friend. I leave you guys here with some of my work and hope that you are inspired to just go out there and create.
