I know by now you might be a little curious as to whats going on here at Poppy Paperie. Well... here's the scoop!
About a year ago I was feeling like I wanted a place where I could Journal my thoughts and share some of what was going in in my life, my family's life and my work. a place I could "let it all hang out" so to speak...safe in a way I guess. not that post boards and yahoo groups aren't safe...Its more of how you feel safe in your own home kind of safe...you know...where you can sit in your Pj's all day with your hair in a wanna-be ponytail, no make-up and watch movies kinda safe! This blog was my answer!
Now...being the statistics lover that I am...(weird fact because I don't love math AT ALL)... Here are some tidbits for you...

What this means...Well, when I see this I think of that scene from "A Bugs Life"! You know the one where they realize the strength that comes when they act as a community ...you knoooow...when they stand up to Hopper!!! (thinking that I watch WAY too much Disney all of a sudden!) Anyway... I think thats why I love stats...it isn't just numbers, it represents something, usually significant...and to me these numbers represent a really big community that I feel really blessed to be a part of. So Thank you...for listening to my ramblings and taking the time to share a part of you with me!
SOOooooo...as a thank you...in celebration of my first blogging anniversary I wanted to throw YOU a PARTY!!! As you may know, I am blessed to be working with some really incredible companies and publications....well...they want to join the party too! TOMORROW I will be drawing the names for the 1st round of prizes from the email subscribers and those who posted that they link here. The first Party Favors will be from MARVY UCHIDA!!! And...they are VERY generous...so the more that entered the more prizes I get to send your way! (so telling your friends just increases your chances to win!) I will share some of my Marvy Uchida experience with you tomorrow when I announce the winners.
SO let the PART-AY begin!
ETA: feel free to subscribe anonymously, however...I wouldn't know who was who if one of you were to be chosen as one of the winners. Also...the prizes will be for subscribers, old and new together.
