Thank you so much for stopping by and...Hi Heather,<br /><br />Thank you so much for stopping by and letting me know I'd crossed a line. I left another comment on your post trying to explain and apologize, and I'm just going to copy and paste it here so my reply stands in both places:<br /><br />Heather, my comment on this post is the one you feel is negative -- and if you feel it's negative, well, there it is: I've hurt someone's feelings, which I never wanted to do.<br /><br />I'm truly sorry. <br /><br />For anyone else reading, my comment was this:<br /><br />"It looks like "Happy" could stand to be just a wee bit smaller for this card -- it makes the roses look a bit squished.<br /><br />Still, it's how we work with the stamp sizes we have that's part of the fun, or we'd have all switched to digis a long time ago."<br /><br />Heather, I never thought that implying your creation was "a wee bit" less than perfect was a a troublesome comment, but I was wrong, and clearly I need to re-examine my assumptions.<br /><br />When I blog hop I try to leave a comment that is slightly more individual than "This is a lovely card." And I read many bloggers who joke about what they perceive to be imperfections in their own work. I meant my comment to be in this joking manner, something vaguely original to read among the stream of "lovely card"s, but I mis-stepped: apparently the stamped images going out of the raised area of the tag was deliberate and part of your plan for the card. I am not a great designer, you see, and when <i>I</i> stamp outside the lines, as it were, I am unhappy with the results. It was wrong of me, of course, to assume that this was true for everyone.<br /><br />Thank you for coming to my blog and letting me know that my comment was unacceptable. I appreciate the opportunity to apologize, and I want to repeat:<br /><br />I'm truly sorry.belldoubleyouhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04945497490896303415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2362692457516581466.post-66051054359298844572012-10-14T12:16:48.481-04:002012-10-14T12:16:48.481-04:00I wanted to stop by and let you know that the comm...I wanted to stop by and let you know that the comment you left on my blog the other day was the first negative comment I have ever received in my years of blogging. The old saying my mother used to say is appropriate here. "If you don't have something nice to say...then don't say it at all"!<br /><br />http://simplyhandmadebyheather.blogspot.com/2012/10/happy-birthday.html<br />Heather Rogershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02733297495595650973noreply@blogger.com
