Seriously it is the first ever Stacy Julian appreciation week and I get to be one of the first to publicly appreciate her- so here it goes

I have been one of the lucky ones to be 'powered by' Stacy from the early days of this industry.

She believed in me even before I believed in myself

Her ability to see the positive in me has opened extensive doors of opportunity for me

Her ability to see scrapbooking as not only a hobby but a means for improving quality of life has transformed the hobby into something much more significant for me and thousands of others.

I am working on a cute gift for Stacy that will include representations of things she has taught me and wanted to share this list with you.

  • always, always, always seek learning
  • no memory is too small or insignificant to scrapbook
  • it is a simple as adding sprinkles to your pancakes to turn an ordinary day into an extraordinary day
  • look for the good in others-you will by surprised by the outcome
  • everything looks better with a button or two attached
  • many of life’s lessons are learned in the kitchen alongside someone you care about
  • color represents more than mood or style, it represents you and your outlook (or what you want your outlook to be)
  • surround yourself with happy bits such as, quotes, music, photos, and ribbon
  • quotes can sometimes say what you are feeling much better than what you can articulate
  • be brave in the way you act, think, and live
  • when given a choice of either the merry go round or the roller coaster- always go with the roller coaster-it is much more exciting
  • look for the potential in others and do what you can to help them realize it

Thank you Stacy for helping me realize my potential.
