Please let me hear from you!

This blog is for sharing a love of paper crafting. I love paper crafting -
and Stampin' Up! products in particular -
so much so, that I became an independent Stampin' Up!®™ demonstrator earlier this year!
Full disclosure: I get a small commission on purchases made using links from this website - but this in no way affects your price. It just serves to help support this blog. Thank you in advance for that support!

Enjoy browsing my blog, and I'd love to hear from you.
It is what helps make the time I put into this blog feel worthwhile, and always brightens my day.

Why is My Blog Loading so Slowly?????

Today is the day I usually share a technique or trick related to paper crafting.  Today's tip is about blogging instead.

I have noticed that over the last several weeks that my blog was suddenly running EXTREMELY slowly and I just didn't understand why.  It seemed like it took FOREVER to load my blog, when it used to load really quickly. It finally dawned on me that I had added a widget to my blog to allow folks to search the blog, and I should test to see if that was the trouble.  Sure enough! As soon as I removed that widget things were back up to speed.

I don't know why I thought it was needed anyway, because there is an automatic search option at the upper left corner of the window!  (Perhaps that was added when blogger changed to their newer format???)  Anyway, hopefully no one will miss the one I'd had on my blog page.  I certainly won't miss the severe slowing!
