^That.. is a blue ribbon! The first blue ribbon I've ever won in my life... and I want to thank all of you who voted for my Winter White Vase in the Polymer Clay Artists Guild of Etsy's November Challenge for that blue ribbon. Picture me last night when I learned about the win, giggling like a little child. It was really fun, so thank you for that.
I want to take a moment to thank some others - my family and good friends. Not just for their votes, but for their endless support of me and of my polymer clay passion for all these years. They are the reason that I've been able to move past uncertainty and see the things I create as beautiful.
Now let me mention PCAGOE... you all ROCK and I love being part of a cohesive group of artists who push me to move along in the right direction, who encourage me to enter my art in challenges, and who help me keep listing things in my Etsy shop.
So I'm off to list some new things... and to giggle some more because in this stage of life, I'm the proud winner of a blue ribbon! Woo hoo!
