Say good-bye, say good-bye...All the world is a stage, and everyone has their part...

Note: If you're here The Twinery & Clearsnap product showcase, you can find my post HERE. 

Happy Cinco de Mayo, y'all! Welcome to the May Diva Inspirations Hop! If you've come here by way of Julee's Blog, you're right on track. If you've joined the party in progress, make sure you check the Verve Blog for the complete list of Divas playing along today so you can see all the Verve Goodness for yourself, and possibly win some free stamps! Sound good? Oh, and this post is long, so just in case you get distracted, Sony is your next stop for today, and I'm sure she has something amazing for you!

As my post title suggests, all good things come to an end. This will be my last hop as a Verve Diva. Life has changed so much for me over the last two years, and I am scaling back a bunch on my other obligations so I can focus on myself and my family. This is by no means goodbye...I will always be a Verve Fan and cheerleader. It's just time, ya know? My boys are growing up so fast, and they deserve every ounce of attention I have to spare!

Instead of showcasing one project today, I looked through my Verve posts over the last 5 years and have compiled a list of my very favorites for you. I hope you enjoy them as much as I have enjoyed looking through them. I don't know how to make those fancy clickable tables, so I've numbered the projects and listed them with the links to their original posts below the photo. Enjoy!

As I look through these, yes, it may seem like just bits of ink and paper, but each and every project has a story. Some are funny, some are sad, and some are painful. But each is a piece of me. I guess that's what art is, huh? Perhaps soon I'll come back and tell a few of them.

Thanks so much to all of you for sharing this journey with me. I have made some amazing and lifelong friends along the way. I hope you'll continue to visit my blog. I may not post as often, but I'll still be here! I'm so thankful to Julee for being an amazing friend and allowing me to be on this fun ride with her. This is what started it all, my friends!

Have a fabulous weekend!
