Somerset Studio

In March of 1999 I picked up this magazine. 

 I sat in the parking lot at my daughter's middle school 

 in my car and I read it from cover to cover. 

I remember that day so clearly

 I couldn't believe what I was seeing. 

-I still have that copy-

This was more than just a magazine.

 It was amazing. 

 It was different. 

 It was not just rubber stamps!

There were collages

and altered objects.

Art I knew I loved

But I didn't know where to find it.

I wondered then what it would be like

to see something you made

in this magazine.

Over a year ago

I made a bunny collage,

and a card,

and I sent it with a wish.

This week,

I walked out to the mailbox...

.

Look what was inside!

I made this.

and this!

I'm beyond thrilled.

It's been a

VERY GOOD DAY!
