Lizzie Anne's Last Day!

a·lo·ha 
interj. Chiefly Hawaii
Used as a traditional greeting or farewell.

Hello.  Goodbye.  The word seems very appropriate for today.

In Summer of 2009 as a brand new SCS Dirty Girl, I went to Orlando for my very first CHA.  I had the privilege of meeting the Lizzie Anne girls and helping them with their make-n-take at the Splitcoaststampers booth.  Not long afterward, they invited me to join their team.  So thrilled! And now, as I am preparing to leave for CHA Summer 2011, Lizzie Anne is closing its doors.  :(

What a joy it's been to be part of this talented group of artists and stampers!  I love their style, the great variety of stamps they've offered, and their sweet spirits.

Today is Lizzie Anne's last day.  I was in Costa Rica when I first heard the news, and was grateful to be too busy to seriously think about it.  I don't think it has yet had time to sink in...I still feel kinda dazed and confused!  It won't ever be the same!

LOVE you girls...LOVED every minute of being on your team!  You have been so generous, kind, and completely wonderful to me!

So in this case, let aloha not mean goodbye!  Like my beloved ukulele that I have so come to cherish, I hope we see each other often!  Until then, I will remember you with fondness.  Aloha a hui hou!  Until we meet again!

  1. Oh, how sad. Obviously I am in the UK, and am not sure why this has happened, do you mean the whole company is closing? (But your card is beautiful, by the way!)

  2. Beautiful card and sentimental post, Deb. I'm still a newbie, yet I will really miss the LAD team, owners, and fun images.
