Because of Julie, I've had many firsts, LOL! I think my favorite is the first time I had an appletini. Every time I have one, I think of my sweet friend! Good times, good times!

These were my first *loves*
Julie HRR, Taylored Expressions, Jeanne S, Beate, Debbie Olsen....
from there the list has expanded so much.

I still try to keep my subscriptions low (only have about 9 I subscribe to!) otherwise i would NEVER get any stamping done myself!!!!

I think the first blog I saw was GinaK, when her daughter was in a contest maybe? Then it was Jacksonbelle and Shel9999 and Julia S and Trudee and JulieHRR and................................. If you have a blog out there, I have probably visited it and have loved them ALL.

My first was SCS years and years ago! I used to be a SU demonstrator and my up-line showed me this wonderful place. I mainly came here for card ideas and didn't really know what blogging was until about a month ago - I lead a very sheltered life hahaha!
The first blog I subscribed to was Lizzie Anne. I'm definitely going to check out Julie HRR though...I feel like I'm missing out on something

I found Michelle Laycock's blog in early 2005, before I found SCS AND before I became a demo.

I didn't even know stamping blogs existed until I stumbled upon Gina K's blog. I have checked it daily ever since then, and it led me to her amazing design team who I also check daily. Massive talent. I have learned so much from them.

I read yours adn Kelly's all the time. You have a great sense of humor! Yours was the first "boy blog" I ever read, followed by Kurtis.

Actually, I think I read ever single person's blog who posted on this thread plus about 10 zillion other ones. I blame Julie... (I always blame Julie.:mrgreen: )

Julie,

The begiining of this reminded me of the new Geico commercials...too funny.

And yes your blog was the first for me as well. I've been stalking you for a long time now....

OMG I have to tell you this...it's hilarious. I started stamping last July and have since taken over the office/piano room as my stamp room. And I have SERIOUSLY tried to figure out where to put my piano cause I need more room!!!!! No, Julee you can't have it, my mom bought it the night before I was born. lol She'd disown me.
