A Birthday Celebration
Friday, December 11, 2009
Once upon a time I was on a trip flying throughout all the Land of Blog.
When all of a sudden I came upon the most curious place created by a lovely girl named Vanessa.
I knew at once this was a kindred spirit. She created the most enchanting place called A Fanciful Twist,
and surely every post created magical adventures that led down many a fanciful twist.
Now Miss Vanessa wasn’t just a fanciful storyteller, but she also created beautiful creations that enchanted us all.
Fairies and creatures that surely delight, and
paintings of dancing girls performing in all kinds of adventurous wonderlands.
She created parties of the Mad Hatter kind
and Halloween exravaganzas
that inspired us all to create magic and wonder too. And there were places to visit like through the secret keyhole.
Often you will find delicious cakes, sweets and scrumptious treats, all photographed to make your mouth water.
Oh, and there is the most wonderful man named Mr. Lovee
who helps Miss Vanessa create fairy dust for her stories
in their magical abode.
Gypsy Wagons lit by candlelight, lacy washlines leading to paths lined with magical touches.
When we learned that Vanessa's Birthday was approaching, many friends created stories, and magical adventures of their own to celebrate this special day.
You will find avenues leading to all of them at Roo's Place called Roo's Tree House.
I truly believe that Vanessa has left a trail of fanciful adventure,
and touched each of our hearts in the most enchanting way.
You see she truly is the pied piper of The Land of Blog. She has taught us all to be as young as we would fancy.
Happy Birthday Vanessa, may all your dreams come true.
Please stop by Vanessa's place and send your Birthday Wishes...
The song for this post is Dance of the Wild Fairies.
How did this happppppen? I am so blown away and touched and overwhelmed with delight and sentiment. Oh Miss Karen, I can't begin to share with you the kind caring and sheer warmth I feel when I see your name.
You are more than kind, thank you ever so much for your constant friendship - and for helping make today more than memorable. I am still in shock, and about to bury my head in a pillow and cry like a 5 year old, out of happiness of course!
Much love, and many many thanks. What a gorgeous blog post!
Love, Vanessa
Oh, what a sweet birthday tribute! I would be crying too if this had been for my birthday...so very sweet of you and so thoughtful....Vanessa has such a great blog and is such a talented lady. :0)
Have a great day,
Stephanie
How sweet of you to do this for your friend!
Well who doesn't love miss Vanessa Valencia?
Thanks for showing us about true (blog) friendship, have a nice weekend!
Oh Karen, that is such a wonderful tribute! I don't know this lady, but I shall visit her to see how she does it! My dream is to be a story teller as well. I try to do what I do with the limited time that I have, but I hope to inspire many with my work as she has. Very beautiful, Karen! Bisous, Anita
Awww... I am actually misty because, I, too, feel that thank goodness dear Ms. V shares her magic with us and makes us feel welcome and sends us to only the sweet places in her heart. This is truly a dedication. Bless you for making such a "Birthday Card" for her. Take care dear Karen. Blessings and light, Amy
