As someone who is very new to this kind of art world its important to me to have inspiration in someone else's work and what they share about their process. I will look at this more often now because you are posting.Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02175416494675722239noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8056586873219716348.post-44676188505341343412015-12-20T15:31:06.664-08:002015-12-20T15:31:06.664-08:00Lovely cards Irene.

It also acts as a huge book of inspiration. My only hurdle is time. I would love to spend more time reading blogs and finding new ones but work commutnents often limit this. I find Facebook likes rather trivial and prefer the personal comments through blogging.my challenge next year is to spend more time seeking out new blogs there are so many great creative people out there. Merry Christmas Irene. Much love sent your way.

A few years ago my niece told me that blogging was going obsolete. I mentioned it in a blog post and the responses were NO NO NO. However, I also took the dark turn into FB land for awhile. LOL I agree the more insightful relationships that I have with bloggers is more appealing to me. I too have come back to my blog. I do still visit FB I started a family group and that has been amazing. None of my family live close. I am so happy you are back to blogging. I enjoy your art and just knowing the things you are doing in your life. Happy Holidays to you.DVArtisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18389131898875955178noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8056586873219716348.post-23192631985410121442015-12-19T20:09:44.770-08:002015-12-19T20:09:44.770-08:00Wow...how creative you are.

I find I am seeing things that are none of my business on facebook...just because one of my friends liked or commented on it.. Instagram I love because it's quick and easy and I make new friends. However blogger is my heart and soul! Also I have heard it is necessary if you are ever licensed or published so your fans have a reference to you! Plus your blog probably has a lot of google credibility you'd be giving up!! Build it all and see what happens!!You never know...the question is, " What do you want?" <br /><br />Have a magical Christmas!!<br /><br />Hugs Giggles Giggleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11713143985984314202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8056586873219716348.post-68441303955863484392015-12-19T13:26:44.210-08:002015-12-19T13:26:44.210-08:00LOVE your Christmas tree cards Irene!

They look so stylish. I have not ventured into the world of instagram and facebook up to now but have been tempted. If I link to challenges like PPF other bloggers visit but if I post without linking I have only a handful of loyal visitors and have not gained any new followers for ages.Carol Rigbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00345128330586224856noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8056586873219716348.post-82313920964838850742015-12-18T09:54:40.928-08:002015-12-18T09:54:40.928-08:00Very nice, you are invited to share this with Feli...Very nice, you are invited to share this with Feline Art Friday, The artwork does not need to be related to cats, all artwork and animal related posts are invited to Feline Art Friday:<br />http://kittypartay.blogspot.com/2015/12/feline-art-friday_17.htmlJuliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04436683488809884663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8056586873219716348.post-12199200461342123862015-12-18T08:28:12.745-08:002015-12-18T08:28:12.745-08:00Fantastic cards, Irene!
