Meet My Blog Friend Deb

heart shaped rockImage by Pash Photography via FlickrMeet my friend Deb. She visits here often. She has her own blog too. It's called Paper Turtle.
Deb is like Martha Stewart, but younger and way more mellow and cool. She will tell you she's a crafter, and she especially loves scrap booking, but, really, she's an artist, and every part of her life is her art. That's what I like: every part of her life is her art. You can see that on her blog.

But here's why I really like Deb, and why I think you will too. Deb is amazingly positive, but not in a Krispy-Kreme-Hurt-Your-Teeth way, and she is always having fun with her adult daughter, while I occasionally count the days until my children (please, please, please) leave for college. It gives me hope on the days when I am silently sniveling and moaning along.

Anyway, you might want to give her a visit.

PS: I thought it might be nice to slowly introduce you to the bloggers and readers who tend to comment on my posts. That way we all get to know each other a little better, and you might discover another blog that you really like.

PPS: Deb likes heart-shaped rocks.

Thanks for the link, Margaret, I'm always happy to meet other creative people! What a nice idea, as well, to highlight other bloggers....you might start a trend!

Margaret said...

Lori: I think it's a good idea too, but I really do like all these blogs too, and I think people will enjoy discovering them.

Good one, MF! Bloggers need to support each other. Most don't. And most become inactive.

Olga said...

As I was signing on today, I was actually thinking, "I should explore some new blogs...I wonder if it is some kind of poaching no-no to click on other people's blog lists." Well, now I have to check out Deb's blog.

Joanne said...

What a nice idea, Margaret. I haven't been to Deb's, so I'm headed over to say Hello.

Rois said...

I have a collection of heart shaped rocks!Somehow I always come across them.

Deb @ PaperTurtle said...

Margaret! Oh my gosh, girl, thank you so much for your very kind words and a sweet plug for my blog. I am very honored to have a mention on your awesome blog. There is definitely mutual admiration between us, my friend. I would say that I'm not worthy but, if you say so, I suppose I am. :o) ♥

PS: Goes without saying, but I LOVE the heart shaped rock photo!!!

Unknown said...

Awww! This is so sweet! My mom considers you such a good blog friend, so I know that she appreciates this. And thanks for the shout-out to me, too! :)

Unknown said...

What a wonderful idea! Hi, blog friend Deb!

Katie said...

Great idea to nudge us into neighborliness. I checked out Deb's blog -- so much good stuff over there. Crafts and photos and cupcakes, oh my! Delightful heart rock photo here.

I found a heart-shaped rock. I'm sure they must be rare. I love mine. Is this relevant? I don't know. Off to click on Deb's blog.

I like your idea, Margaret.

Shell Sherree said...

What a lovely idea, Margaret! I've stumbled on Deb's blog before and thoroughly enjoyed it, and it was lovely to have your refresher. {If I find a heart-shaped rock, it's a keeper.}

Susan Campisi said...

What a lovely idea, Margaret. I just visited Deb's blog. I see what you mean when you say "every part of her life is her art." There's so much color and spark and joy in her posts. Oh another blog to fall in love with! I have to quit my job so I can keep up with them all.

Star said...

What a lovely idea, Margaret, really. I enjoyed looking at "Paper Turtle," thanks! (oooohhhhhh, I'm drowning in boxes....moving.........)

P.S., Who's Ned, and why should I heed him? My "Word Verification" for this post was "heedned"...they're getting a little bossy, aren't they?! ;->

Margaret said...

Deb and everyone, glad you like.

Star regarding Ned: I think you'll know if you think long enough.

Jean Spitzer said...

That blog is so pretty--and her post links to her daughter's blog, also pretty. I'm smiling.

Stacey said...

I think I have a heart-shaped rock in my rock bowl. Fun to find.

Heading over to see The Paper Turtle.

Pasadena Adjacent said...

I dropped in and brought cookies

Watson said...

What wonderful creations, tho I got kind of sidetracked feeding the turtles!

Great idea Margaret.

Watson said...

Olga, I visited your site and found the Time Goes By site! both delightful!

Stephanie said...

Deb is amazing, isn't she? What a sweet tribute to a sweetheart of a girl!

Her blog sounds like one I would like. I also love to craft, though I don't seem to have much time for it anymore since I started writing. Thanks for the link, I will go take a look see.
