Saying Goodbye To Studio A

I am so diappointed. You inspire me with every piece of work that you do. You have brought joy back into my scrapbooking that I was missing for a while. I hope that this transition will allow you to be more free to pursue to opportunities that you want & I can't wait to go along for the ride!

I, too, will miss studio A. Its the first thing I look for in the magazine. I'm sure you'll move forward & carry on with new endeavors. Good luck to you.

i will miss seeing your articles in the magazine but i do realize that life moves forward and that change can be good!! glad that your blog is here and that you will be sharing your inspirations with us through this!! and of course through your other ventures...
looking forward to the days ahead!

Your column is always my fave column every mth. It is gonna be really sad not to see your column anymore.

Ali, I am so sorry to hear of you leaving CK, I hate that it was first Becky and now you and also that Lisa is taking a leave. I am wondering what is happening??? You guys are the ones that I look forward to each and every month, my inspriration. Well, I will still continue to check your blog everyday and congratulations on your new ventures!

Wow, I can't believe you are leaving, too. I heard about Becky first and then Lisa and now you. It will be interesting to see what I get now as unlike the others, I just resubscribed after having it lapsed for almost a year. I was still buying it in the stores anyway, just spending too much on it. Good luck with your new adventures and I will see your stuff at DD for sure.

"Studio A" was the reason why I subscribed to Creating Keepsakes! Wow, without Studio A and Becky's Sketches I believe December will be my last issue as well. Good luck to you, I'm sure you will still be creating and telling your wonderful stories that need to be told. Here's to the future!

Ali, I have so loved your work in CK. It will be missed. You have always inspired me to break the "rules" I created for my scrapbooking.
I am excited for you and your future plans. I enjoy reading your blog each day. You inspire me!

Wishing you such continued joy and success, Ali! Open a new window . . . open a new door! (Taken from the musical "Mame" - one of my favorite songs!) I look forward to your next journey!

Ali, your column will be missed. It was the first thing I read each month. I am glad I will have a connection through your blog. Thanks!

D-E-P-R-E-S-S-I-O-N
Yours was ALWAYS the first section I would turn to when I got CK in the mail. I am going to seriously miss seeing your work every month. I'm sure I have all of your articles clipped out and in my manilla folder labeled "Ali Edwards Layouts"
I sure hope you post your layouts on your blog or maybe...another book? ;o)

As much as I have loved CK, I have had a sinking feeling that with Becky higgins leaving that you too would soon follow-just didn't know it would be so soon!
I am grateful that CK introduced you to so many scrappers around the world! you truly have inspired me to reach different levels of creativity!
i will continue to read you blog and look forward to your inspiration!
So sad for Ck readers, but really-wishing you all that life has to offer!

Thank you for all your wonderful Studio A articles. You will be missed in the magazine, but I know change is often for the better so I can't wait to see where you inspire us next!

I am a supporter of moving up and moving on - congrats on your new ventures!
I did want to tell you thank you, I first saw your work in CK and you have transformed how I think about scrapbooking and also how I create art in general (which is a big part of who I am).
I will miss your articles but I am thankful that you have this great blog as a creative outlet for you and also to help keep us all inspired.

No lie. I was at a crop tonight and grabbed every CK mag on the shelf prior to when I started my subscription and just went to the Studio A to grab some inspiration. So sad to hear that I will not be able to see you in future issues. However, I tune into your blog daily and will continue to do so! You have changed my focus and for that I thank you!

OMG, Studio A was the best part of CK. Thank you so much for all that you shared in its pages and I am so grateful for all that you share here on your blog. Onward to new adventures. PS: I am in your BPS class and it is wonderful. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you!

Thank you for being REAL in this journey of life and family and sharing. I can't wait to see how your life moves forward. Love every minute of it. I look forward to even more coming through in Designer Digitals! Yeah!

Studio A was the only reason I bought ck! But I can't wait to see what you'll be up to next! :)

Ali
I am sad to see you go. I will keep reading your blog and looking forward to your new desings and ideas:)

I've really enjoyed your Studio A column over the years. Sorry to see it go, but it sounds like you're excited about your new direction. Best of luck!

I have only really discovered you in the last year or so, so I am sad to see you leaving CK but happy that you will be continuing your blog and doing on line classes I look forward to seeing what inspiration you provide to us next and setting up an archive in relation to your column would be fantastic.

Your column was what kept me reading every issue! The magazine will not be the same without you. I am glad that I keep up with your blog (I check at least 3 times a week!) and you are such an inspiration. Thanks for letting us into your life and keeping it real, always.

NOOOOOO!! You are the only reason left to get CK. First Becky, now you, I see that magazine going out of business soon, It's so sad to see this hobby we love loosing all the publications that made it so big. I am sure what ever you do it will be wonderful and we will all be here waiting anxiously, ready to support you.

I bought CK (newsstand) simply because of your articles, Ali. I know you are hearing this from a lot of people and I am by no means speaking unkindly of all the other really talented people who are contributors to CK. But you always seem to speak to me. I got what you were saying and it made me "want" to take pictures and write down stories of my life.
I know you will continue to be a powerful force in the industry. Others like me will continue to find inspiration from you where ever you go.
I wish you everything that is good... And brighter things for the new year.
