Hi everyone!
I'm so sorry I've been missing for so long. I just wanted to stop back on and let you know that I've decided to stop blogging & will no longer be doing design work. I have some areas of my life that I want to focus on, and as you know, blogging and stamping require a lot of my time and attention, which I don't feel like I have right now!
I personally want to thank all of the wonderful stamp companies who have put their faith in my stamping abilities and have shared their incredible products with me. Most of all, I want to thank you, my faithful readers, for always being here to support and encourage me through my paper journey. All good things must come to an end, and I feel like this is the perfect timing for me right now.
Who knows, someday you may see me back, once I've gotten things in order and have more time to devote. Maybe when I'm 80 and finally can retire (grrrrr), I'll be a stamping machine again!
I wish everyone endless creativity and happiness!
Lisa Z.

I'll miss seeing your inspiring work, Lisa, but I certainly understand the benefits of changing gears every once in awhile. Maybe you will be able to pop in on us at the SCS Crafty Secrets forum and participate in some challenges just for fun now and then. We'd love to have ya! Hugs and best wishes!
I'll miss you and your creativity on my blog reader list, but I'm not taking you off! I'm glad you are reordering priorities if that is what is needed in your life right now. I think we women try to cram too many obligations into our lives and we miss out on the important things.
Oh, Lisa - I just discovered your work several weeks ago, and I will certainly miss you! I wish you good luck and many blessings. Your work has been so inspirational. I hope you will keep your old posts up - I feel that I (and others!) have a lot to learn from looking through the archives :) Best regards,
Jean
Lisa, I'll miss seeing your posts and your awesome cards! I hope you still stamp now and then and post in the SCS gallery. Bummer that real life has to interrupt the fun stuff! Take care!
Oh Lisa...I'm so sad to hear this. I can always spot your work in my favorite magazines, and love all of it. I can certainly understand that life just gets too busy, though. Best of luck to you. I love your shabby style and will miss you terribly;)
I miss you already. I wish you the best in whatever life brings you, you know that, right?
I am sad to read this LZ but I understand having to do what is best for you.
I truely hope you find what you are looking for.
Huge hugs as always zapstar.
Hey Z! All I can say is I love ya! OK - I'll say more (*snort*). I am a FIRM believer in doing what is best for you. Follow your heart. Do what is right and best for you. As long as you are true to yourself, you will be HAPPY! That's what I wish for you. *mwah*
I just read this. I love your work and your stories. I am sure that as you close this door ........the doors to your heart will open. HUGS.
Lisa, baby, know that I love you always and forever. You have the BIGGEST heart and I want you to know that I'm ALWAYS here for you. BIG hugs, and you go girl, knowing what you need and want to do! HUGS!
{{Lisa}} You are a doll, and you are an amazing artist. Our paths would have never crossed if not for stamping, for that I'm grateful. Big hugs!
Oh I will miss you Zappa! I hope you can now focus your energy on what is most important to you!
Hey Zappy, I wish you success in your future endeavors and I hope to see you return to the stamping arena in the future. Your talents should not be kept hidden for too long.
Hugs my little friend :)
