I've been an artist of one kind or another my whole life. Since I started my blog "My Desert Cottage" in April of 2009 I have fallen in love with "Blogland". I am blown away be the generous nature of women in my blogging community. The creative give and take of ideas has become so important to my creative process. Now I have a whole new business called Valentine Design where I create beautiful blogs for my clients. I am thrilled to be able to spend my time creating, and making friends who have similar interest I do.
