I am a firm believer that you should surround yourself with the things that make you happy.
For me, it's always been about little, everyday things. So I've always made sure that they are there... little bits of pretty that make me stop and smile.

When I first found Somerset Life I was dumbfounded.
Here was a whole magazine (a beautifully printed one, at that) just about living creatively and beautifully.
I had to think, "Was this magazine made just for me?!"
But then I found out that there was a whole slew of others out there in the world, who thought the same thing and lived the same way!
That was a great feeling.
I read that magazine from cover to cover several times and carried it around with me for a least a week.
So when I was asked to contribute to my all time favorite magazine, I couldn't believe it.
(I actually had to reread the email 5 times, before it sunk in.)
All I can say is
Thank You Christen, Jennifer and the Somerset Life staff.
I am more grateful and honored, than you will ever know.

Alisa, your work in STUNNING! There is no question in my mind why they asked you to contribute. You made those pages all the better with your amazing creativity! I will always regret not stealing your piece from the Texas Bella Christmas party!! It could have been done and mine! LOL
Congrats on the publication. You deserve every bit of it :)

I just got the magazine & can't wait to enjoy it with my cup of coffee tomorrow morning. Congratulations in being published!!!! I didn't know!!! This is so exciting!!!! Your work is amazing & you so deserve to be in it. Hope to see you again at Craft Night in the fall. Also thank you for the kind & encouraging words about Hubby & his heart problems. I am indeed scared, tired, stressed & worried. But, I am very thankful & positive all will turn out well in the end. I just know we have some really BAD STUFF ahead of us. The love & support of friends like you helps so much. THANK YOU! Hugs! Charlene
