Dearest Jo,

 

    It's been an honor, a privilege and a joy to get to know you and to learn from you. 

    I have "known" you for a few years now.  I first admired you from a far through your beautiful stationeries on your site.  Who was this person who could create such beautiful stationeries?  I then read about you and was impressed beyond words.  I signed up on your mailing list and began receiving all your newest creations right in my very own email box.     

    Then there were a few emails between us when I was trying to purchase your disk of stationeries.  It was a bad year for you health wise.  You were in and out of the hospital several times that year.  But sick or not, you persisted and made sure I was taken care of.   I got my CD and I was thrilled.  I had the whole collection now!  

    And unbeknownst to you, you and your stationeries participated in a very special and happy family memory for me and my sisters a few years ago. 

    When I  got the chance to participate in your Beginner Stationery class I was so worried that I didn't know PSP8 well enough and you weren't going to let me in.  Little did I know that you were not going to let a little thing like me not knowing the program get in your way of teaching me about the world of stationery making.

    Your comment to your students through your time, knowledge and patience is truly an inspiration.

    I express my gratitude and thanks and look forward to many more times of seeing your imaginative tutorials and of course your wonderful stationeries that you continue to create for us.

    I Bow to you Oh Queen of Fudge (hope you remember about this otherwise it's going to sound pretty silly)

Best wishes,
