Taking a needed break. . . . . . .
Hello everyone,
I’m going to take a break from blogging until I return from my vacation. My next post will be April 20th. In the mean time, please check out and try some of the past tutorials here on my blog. There is a tutorial tab on the top of this page with quick links to all of them. There are over thirty, so grab a cup of your favorite brew and stay a while. Any questions/comments leave them in the comments section under the tutorial you are viewing and I will answer if I can before the 20th. If I can’t, I’ll be sure to answer them upon my return.
Thanks again to all of you that visit my blog. Your wonderful comments have inspired and driven me to keep posting tutorials and in the process I have learned a great deal myself.
Hugs,
Michelle
Michelle,
Enjoy your well deserved vacation. I need the time to catch up on your tutorials. Some of the needed supplies are coming via snail mail. You rest up while I catch up.

Enjoy your vacation! I also need the time to get supplies! Thanks so much for taking the time to post these tutorials! Looking forward to your return!
Have a great vacation! I wanted to thank you for your blog. I found it recently and am thoroughly in awe of your talent. Because of you, I’ve brought my heat gun and embossing powder out from the back of the craft drawer, and I’m trying brayering for the first time. By the way, you make it look a LOT easier than I’m finding it! LOL! But that is another question for another day. Happy travels!
Relax and enjoy yourself. I so appreciate the awesome step-by-step tutorials you post on your blog. Now, if I only had your artisitc ability!!
Have a Terrific time on your vacation!
Hi Michelle,
Have a restful and relaxing vacation. I’ll be catching up on your tutorials and trying to master the intimidating “Brayer” (practice…practice…practice). Thanks to your inspiration my cards have more punch and I find myself using more vibrant colors. I’ve cased a number of your cards with great success thanks to your step by step detailed tutorials. My next step is working at improvising on stamps and supplies to work at developing a Karen style (lol) You have given me wings and I am feeling much more confident in my passion for stamping!!
Thanks again Michelle
Enjoy your vacation! I’ll miss you! Have fun and be safe!
Thanks again for all the many things you do for us and for all the of the wonderful art you share!
Have a safe and relaxing vacation! I love your blog and your talent is so inspiring! I am still practicing with my brayer!

Hi Michelle, hope you are enjoying your break. This is the first time I have visited your blog (saw you on Gina K’s blog - congratulations!!!). I love the way you include step by step directions to show how you get your shading and create your beautiful cards! Thanks for sharing!! I look forward to visiting your site regularly.
Take care and STAY POSITIVE!!
Michelle, hope you have a wonderful vacation!! I’ll still be visiting here every day because there is so much to learn:) Thanks for your wonderful tutorials. Looking forward to your return.
Have a wonderful vacation! Take some pictures of Stamp Stores and inspirational sites for the rest of us!
Good for you! This will give me time to try a few tutorials out…before you hit me with another beauty! Have a great vacation!
sniff…okay…its not like I have a choice…but I’ll miss you.
Even more so when I go and try to imitate your work myself. First I frown then laugh, but fortunately, its not an expensive hobby. I just keep trying…and chuckling, wondering how does she make it look so easy? Enjoy your vacation.
Have a great vacation! I love your blog, but it must be a ton of work to post something so detailed every day. You totally deserve the break
Hey I will miss your post but have a wonderful time. I did try out a couple of your tutorials and just posted my results on my blog if you would like to look. Thanks so much for your inspirations

Michelle- I hope your vacation gives you time to refresh and renew! I am in awe of your creations, and the fact that you are able to post such amazing tutorials every day! This gives us a chance to peruse and practise your techniques. Or actually finish a card using some of them! So enjoy your time off, and when you come back, post at a frequency that works for you. We’ll all be here with baited breath!
Thank you for all the inspiration!
Whew…I can try to catch up on working the techniques from your tutorials. I have no idea how you are always able to come up with fresh ideas and take the time to share the step by step with us. You and your beautiful creations will be greatly missed while you are away
Enjoy your time away to relax and unwind. Have a fabulous vacation!
I hope you have a great vacation. I just found your blog, so there is still so much for me explore. Thanks for all the wonderful tutorials and ideas.
Have fun on vacation. The rest of us will lie in our studios in the fetal position with no Zindorf until you get back!
I’m very much looking forward to the tutorials!!
Enjoy your vacation, i just found your blog, and i am loving reading all the great tutorials you have written.

Hi Michelle, Have a fabulous vacation! I just read all the comments here and laughed out loud at Lydia’s. Too funny! But you can see how much you’ll be missed. You deserve a break from all the hard work you put in to give us these great tutorials. I’m going to try to go back and study each tutorial again for a refresher course. Thanks so much for all you do. Relax and enjoy!
Trish
have a great trip Michelle!
Have a wonderful vacation. I’ll miss getting my daily fix, but you sure do deserve a vacation. Clear the mind for more inspiration to appear.
Do we have to let you go?!
I so enjoy looking forward to your beautiful inspiration with my AM coffee. Rest, relax, and enjoy … and I’ll practice!!!
Michelle, have a great vacation…relax and don’t do anything you don’t want to do…that’s what vacation is all about. Thank you for all of your awesome tutorials, I hope to get to try one soon. You have been a true inspiration to me and I want to learn more about color graduation as well as how to better use my brayer. Thanks again!!
You have fun! enjoy yourself. We will all miss you. You have been an inspiration to many of us, Especially me, a newbie at 50 :). Though I have not tried your tutorials yet, it was only because I owned only 3 ink pad’s :), but some just came in so I will be trying one out. Thank you so much for sharing with us and in such great detail.
Enjoy your time away! I hope you come back refreshed, renewed and relaxed. I’ll miss your daily entries.

Safe & happy travels!

Enjoy your vacation! I’ll miss your tutorials and lovely creations, but look forward to your coming attractions! Thanks so much for sharing with us your inspiring tutorials!
Have a wonderful vacation. You have given us all so much to try out, that you certainly have earned it.
Once again with an edit - I struggled with one word on my post and as soon as I posted I realized that I didn’t mean ‘earn a vacation’ I meant to say ‘deserved’. Does that sound better?
Nobody deserves this award more than you. Check out my blog for details when you have time. Enjoy your break!
