Hi Mary!

I've been trying to reach you via email today, but keep getting failure notifications back. I also tried sending two notes via your profile page in the Cafe. One came back a failure, but I hope the other one reaches you.

Congratulations! I saw your by-line in the Musepaper Artitorial Section and it brightened my day today. And, I have to say, I don't see a problem with talking to one's self. In fact, one of the journal pages I put in my niece's journal that I made for her was a "Me, Myself, and I" puzzle page. She loved it!

Hugs, Julie

This is a definite boost for me - I have been doing the CS3 "do I or don't I" dance for some time. I loved what I saw in the free trial version - and "there ain't nothing like the real thing, baby!"

Glad to see you are still stretching yourself! Great job.

Dear Mary, gosh I went through the same quandary a couple of months ago, but you turned this into a very good vignette and reminder about our inner voice, and taking risks. Good on you!! Thanks for a very thoughtful (and humorous too) blog post.

The benefits of purchasing the software is twofold; you feel a "sense of accomplishment" and you're able to increase your knowledge in an area that you obviously enjoy. Great news, Mary!

I have old versions of all the Adobe programs. I sure wish I had CS3. Congratulations on a great purchase!

Hiya Mary! I have to say I highly recommend talking to oneself AND answering back too! Good for you investing in yourself. I hope you share your work. I'd love to see it! Your friend, Lori

Hi!

I've been a little pre-occupied with photography and photo editing and I've been making an Art Journal for my niece, Amy. But, I still looking forward to using your forest background paper and add a little magic or fantasy. I'll be sure to drop you a note when I post it.

Hugs, Julie

Hi Mary!

Thanks so much for the free picture, your beautiful vision of spring, and what sounds like a very fun challenge. Artella always has been a great place for freebies, but, it gets better every single day! Thanks again and I hope you have a magical day!

Tripod or not, Mary, you are a real photographer! Loved this group of blooms from their first stages of budding, to a field of yellow daffodils. Isn't spring a delightful time of year?!

Hi Mary -- this woodland scene is indeed both mysterious and magical. The trees have a solemn atmosphere, a sanctuary from our hectic living.
