Default What's happened to Kellie Mize?

I got a shock when I saw that Kellie has disappeared? I loved her templates and everything else. Where did she go?

That is awful news! I so enjoyed her work as well.

Wishing you well, Kellie, in whatever venture is before you.

I will miss Kellie, too. I just used one of her tortuga templates to make some Christmas Ornaments. They turned out sooo cute. Good luck Kellie. We will miss you.

That is too bad. Sorry to hear that - didn't even notice, but I also am a fan of her templates and stuff.

Good luck to her.

What a bummer! I'm really going to miss Kellie's great templates and all she did here at DD.

Wishing her well, where ever life takes her!

I distinctly remember the correct answer to a trivia question on one of our chats: Who was the first designer to join me here at DD? ...Kellie Mize was the answer. And what about the turtles in the bar? And the smart and sassy design and comments in our chats? The Kellie/Pattie duos? So Kellie, I hope you are reading this thread and know that you are missed, woman. And what about the two red headed kids? How are we going to keep up with THEM??

NO!!!!!! The amount of Kellie's product in my stash is second only to Katie's! Hope all is well with you, and that you know we are thinking of you.

Ok, Katie, you are right. I absolutely hate change. Especially when something is already perfect, like DD. *MWAH* that is a kiss to you and everyone else, too!

Between Kellie's love of turtles (my high school nickname related to a turtle -- long story, but I have tons of turtle 'stuff') and her math trivia questions (I recall quickly knowing that Pi to 5 digits is 3.14159), I felt akin to her and will miss her great products and fun chats.

I was also sad to learn that Kellie decided to leave. But I was glad to spot her at the Zenprint website in the scrapbooking category, offering new Tortuga templates.
