A Sad Goodbye

Hello lovely visitors, thanks for dropping in here.

It is with a heavy heart that I write this post as today is the day I will be sharing my very last post for The Artistic Stamper.

I have been on the team for two and a half years, and I have decided that it was time to move on. Life is taking me in different directions now, and something just had to give.

I have thoroughly enjoyed being on the team there and to work with The Artistic Stamper's wonderful stamps, so today I am sharing a review of some of the many projects I have created for them over the years. If you have time, take a look....

I want to thank Jennie the Artistic Stamper and all my teamies, old and new, I am sure we will stay in touch. Thanks to you lovely visitors also for all your support!!

Ahh Astrid, I know how hard it is to leave a team with so many good memories. I'm sure they are just as sad to lose you too. But it is something you will always treasure and you are so right that life takes us in new and exciting directions. I know you always have so many opportunities presented to you and that you will continue to wow us all with your amazing creations. All the best as you go forward in your artistic endeavors.

Hugs,
Linda

You've been a valuable asset to the team over the past few years and I'm sure you will be greatly missed. All my best wishes for everything the future holds for you. It is bound to be a success. Jenny x

It has been a wonderful journey to follow you there too Astrid, and as always your work is such a huge inspiration to everyone, who see it, and I´m also sure, that you´ll be really missed there too. But that said, we also all know, how life sometimes decides other things for us all, and as we just can´t do it all, we sometimes have to let even the best things go, and if we can just see it as not letting go ogf something good, but to start something else even better, then it might not be as hard to go. I for one at least will look forward to see, where your journey will take you next, and I´ll be there, that´s for sure, as I sooo love everything you´ve ever shared with us. So best of luck, no matter where your life takes you.

I just want to say that I am sure you will be missed very much. You are so very creative and talented, but I know how it is sometimes necessary to move in a different direction. Best wishes in all you do, my friend!

Marjie Kemper said...

That must've been a hard decision but it's true there are only so many hours in the week and if we keep doing the same, we won't have room for the new. I'm so glad to follow your blog so I will see your gorgeous art no matter where it's destined.

Brenda Brown said...

It's always difficult to make those decisions Astrid and I am sure you will be greatly missed. Good luck in all your new ventures.

Liebe Astrid,
auch wenn ich nicht immer deinen wunderbaren Blog kommentiert habe, bin ich doch oft bei dir und deinen herrlichen Werken gewesen.
Manchmal ist es so im Leben, dass man etwas, auch wenn man es liebt, beenden muss.
Ich kann es gut nachvollziehen.
Wege trennen sich und etwas anderes tut sich auf.
Ich danke dir, dass du mich an deinen schönen Arbeiten hast teilnehmen lassen.
Und ich umarme dich und wünsche dir von Herzen alles Gute <3
Sophie xx

I am sure it is with mixed emotions with sadness for leaving a team you have been part of for so long yet at the same time, any new ventures that come your way will create excitement.

Just got a whole lot of new stamps from a brilliant place called the Stamp Smith. This is the image that I first saw on Docraft and really liked. I asked the friend who has used it in an ATC, where she got it. Well she borrowed it from a friend who got it from ebay as a one off. But.... it had a title. I googled the title, and hey presto found the site. They have great stamps and offer a really friendly fast service. I highly recommend them!
