Who is the most innovative team in the country? Uh, this guy and his team on HGTV’s Elbow Room! Why yes, yes that is me with Chip Wade and Cristi Holcombe! Well, what do you think, wouldn’t I make the perfect addition to the team? *heh heh* Oh come on, I’m creative…
So if you were wondering where I disappeared to this past weekend, now you know, it was clearly to stalk Chip Wade and some awesome bloggers at a fantastic blog conference called Haven! Just kidding, I’d probably make the worst stalker ever since I couldn’t find half my bloggy friends in the Haven masses. Hey, you know what is really awkward? Not being able to recognize anyone from their thumbnail (or being unrecognizable from mine!)…*chortle* well confession is good for the soul.
I did meet and greet with quite a few bloggers I did not know before, and attended a bunch of great classes to help me bring my blog best for you, my fantastic readers!
Side note for my blogging readers, Dan R. Morris… yes… just do it. Look at the link. Can you say val.u.able?
Oh, I almost forgot that I promised you more than a sneak peak at the business cards I designed to hand out at the conference…so here they are:
Well? What do you think? Are you looking at this thinking “THAT is a business card? What’s happening right now.” *wink & a chuckle*
This is great for any business not just the business of blogging, so next week I’ll be sharing all the details on how to create these little gold mines, and all the important elements to make it effective! (plus a few nuggets I learned at Haven to make it even better!)
i was so glad that julia introduced us- love your blog and style and i loved your biz cards! it was so great to meet you!
Thank you Cassie, It was lovely to meet you too! I will definitely be following along.
Thanks so so much for the ride again and I really enjoyed talking to you. You are one of a few people I had the chance to talk to for a longer time. Everything was over in a flash!
Lol! Yeah I think I probably spent the most time talking with you too. 😀 Well, at least we got that opportunity! Had a great time with you! 😉
It was so great meeting you in person at Haven, Ursula! And thank you for making me feel special on your card! Glad you had such a good time!
Likewise Sarah! 😉 Hopefully it won’t be the last time.

Aw, it was my pleasure…you ladies work so hard on behalf of bloggers, it was the least I could do. 😉
i am not sure what brands mean but i hope they took notice of you xx
Aw, thank you! I hope so too. lol!
It was wonderful meeting you at Haven and your card was perfect!! It was everything a blogger needed to give to brands, without taking up a bunch of space. I hope that you had an uneventful trip back!
