Artful Blogging Magazine

Artful Blogging Magazine Feature

I will never forget the email!

An email asking if I wanted to submit an article for the February issue of Artful Blogging Magazine.

One of many beautiful magazines from Stampington & Company

Several years earlier I wrote Artful Blogging on my vision board.

My husband had purchased a subscription to the magazine as a gift to me for launching my blog.

The idea behind writing Artful Blogging on my vision board was that I dreamed of being featured as a blogger.

This is where I remind you to keep an open mind!

Years passed and I kept my business growing away from the online world.

A permanent location and monthly barn shows took up most of my time.

Heading into 2018 I knew I wanted this all to change.

I longed to learn and inspire others!

My camera became a creative outlet for me and the idea of visual storytelling took center stage.

All I could think about was learning how to use my camera so I could take pretty photos!

I set out to photograph my vintage treasures allowing others to see them for their beauty.

Like so many of us…they have bruises…but they also have a story worth telling.

I never dreamed my words and photos would be published and sit in amongst the inspiring work of others.

As I set out on this new journey I hope I will inspire you to put your dreams down on paper.

A journal, a vision board, or simply start with a post it on the fridge!

The vision board I wrote on had been put aside…finding it after Artful Blogging contacted me.

I had actually forgotten I had written it!

I sat there with the sheet in my hand, tears of joy as I looked up and said

Thank You 💗

Kindly, xo

Jane
