Thank YOU 😀
You are the best!
I love visiting and reading your posts! It’s truly a treat and always brings a smile to my face 🙂
i´m not so lucky that you share it cuz it makes me jealous while i´m sitting at my desk fighting with my books and looking forward to my master thesis… 😉
your posts brighten my day!
Oh, thank you so much for sharing! It’s so sweet! I’m really jealous of all that!(in a good, productive, way)I wish someday I could live my dream too, because I have neglected it through the years. Thank you so much for being my motivation, even though you have NO IDEA about it! I hope that years to come are even sweeter & better & more productive for you than all the years that have past. TAKE CARE! <3

Beautiful photos Elsie 😀
My pleasure for mentioning you in Holly’s post on my studio on Decor8, too. I meant every word! You know, I first found you on a certain scrapbooking site a couple of months after you first started showing your scrapbooking on there…and then found Rachel because she was friends with you…waaaaay back now lol!
If it wasn’t for you and Rachel, I wouldn’t be doing what I am today. Thank you both, sincerely, from the bottom of my heart for inspiring me and for keeping me going when I was ready to give up.
Love you both! {HUGS}
