Monday, July 17, 2006 Yep. That's right. Your eyes are not deceiving you. I got to meet Martha. What can I say? She is very striking in person. Tall. When she speaks, everyone listens. What an exciting day that was. I was presenting some scrapbooking photo tips to her and her team... and I was almost sick over it. But it was great. There are going to be more great things to come. It's so exciting I can hardly stand it! posted on 7/17/2006 :: link ............................................................................................ 59 Comments: OMG!!!! You are now officially my hero. By  Anonymous, at 17/7/06 9:20 AM Holy cow! Sick would not even come close to describing how I would feel if I had to present something to Martha Stewart! I would be near dead with nerves! Now you're famous! By  SouthernMom, at 17/7/06 9:38 AM Awesome! I would have been beyond sick! I like your shirt, too :) By  udandi, at 17/7/06 9:49 AM Wow that is awesome! Great photo btw By  Krissy, at 17/7/06 9:51 AM Cool, and all those times you mentioned her in the past. Must have made your day. By  Darren, at 17/7/06 10:13 AM I know you're presenting stuff for Kodak, but when I think of the wonderfully cool and distinct style of ljc meeting the style of Martha, it's almost a style overload! By  allison, at 17/7/06 10:16 AM How great! Also- you look great in that photo. By  Catie, at 17/7/06 10:32 AM OMG OMG OMG! Wow, at least I can say I knew you when... I'm proud of you man. I would have passed right out. You look great in this pic by the way! By  Shannon, at 17/7/06 10:49 AM That is WAY TOO COOL!! Congratulations!! By  Sassy Gina-D, at 17/7/06 11:06 AM Holy moly!! The two crafftiest gals in the world meet! By  foodiechickie, at 17/7/06 11:07 AM Wow, I am really so excited for you! You totally deserve to meet her! By  Anonymous, at 17/7/06 11:12 AM I was still a little sleepy-eyed when I checked your blog this morning, I was like, "gracious, that is such a cute picture of lj... OH MY GOD!" and then I spilled my tea in my lap. Congratulations! By  cheryl, at 17/7/06 11:15 AM who wouldn't be starstruck with someone such as martha? congrats! By  fortuitous faery, at 17/7/06 11:31 AM Martha Martha Martha!!! By  blackberrybeads, at 17/7/06 11:32 AM I forgot to mention in my last post that you're like a mini Martha Stewart and now you're rubbing shoulders with her! Fantastic!!! What I would give! =D By  moodlesoup, at 17/7/06 11:38 AM I hate to repeate everything everyone has already posted. But it's also key to know just how impressed all of us are... so, color me impressed. By  kate, at 17/7/06 12:12 PM That is so awesome! CONGRATULATIONS! I can't wait to read more about the great things to come. (its a great pictures of you btw!) By  Michele, at 17/7/06 12:13 PM Are you sure you aren't just at a Wax museum or something :P Must seem like a dream. Congrats! By  Anonymous, at 17/7/06 12:57 PM Oh Jenny! How I envy you! But I'm so happy for you! Nia By  Nia, at 17/7/06 1:13 PM That is so cool. Did she offer you a job? I'm sure it's just a matter of time. By  Elaine, at 17/7/06 1:14 PM I am surprised the two of you didn't spontaniously combust due to the craftyness! By  Rachel, at 17/7/06 1:28 PM OMG! That is all I am going to say :) By  mandee, at 17/7/06 1:30 PM Oh my stinkin' goodness. You ARE amazing!!! By  Jill, at 17/7/06 1:32 PM Wow! By  Maria, at 17/7/06 2:07 PM That rocks because like someone said, you are totally a mini-Martha. I think you must have a very cool job. By  Elizabeth K, at 17/7/06 2:14 PM wow, that is amazing. yay you!! :) By  erika, at 17/7/06 2:46 PM ha @ rachel's comment. so true. how exciting for you !! By  jennie, at 17/7/06 3:12 PM Hi! I'm a new kid on the block, on the blog area that is... I've just recently created my own blog, come and visit me! http://handmade-design.blogspot.com or anaromerodesign.etsy.com By  anaromerodesign, at 17/7/06 3:30 PM Oh my god, I just about fell out of my chair when I saw this! So awesome, and given all you the amazing things you do, somewhat not surprising that you've met! Yeah for you Jenny!!! By  myra, at 17/7/06 3:34 PM OMG! That's awesome! How totally cool for you! By  lisa-marie, at 17/7/06 3:43 PM Was Martha excited to meet you? She's very lucky to have the honour of learning from the best. I've heard that she can be a little... um... quirky in person. You've got to give us some dirt - did she have ragged cuticles? Did she chew with her mouth open? Something? Anything? By  Sarah, at 17/7/06 4:00 PM Seriously, what was Martha thinking with the scarf? It's like 90+ today in NY. I've worked in the Kodak buildings, they are hot even when the air is on. Gratz on meeting Martha but she doesn't look too good in your pic. By  Anonymous, at 17/7/06 4:49 PM Anonymous - I didn't just meet her today in the ninety degree heat! It was several weeks ago and I was able to just now post it. It was chilly then and she looked great! By  ljc, at 17/7/06 4:56 PM How AWESOME! And major congrats to you for getting to teach HER! By  Jessica, at 17/7/06 6:03 PM Woohoo! Jenny & Martha! What a team! I think I would have thrown up from nerves! By  mariko, at 17/7/06 6:17 PM OMG and WOW!! Did you bring her anything? I would love to see her as one of your computer drawings. By  Vanessa, at 17/7/06 6:20 PM How neat for you girlie. I bet it went wonderfully:). By  kat, at 17/7/06 7:32 PM It's a good thing! ;D - long time reader By  Anonymous, at 17/7/06 7:58 PM How long before she invites you to do a spot on the show? You must have been freaking out beforehand. I know I would have. By  Deodand, at 17/7/06 8:08 PM So, you DID give her your blog addy, right? I'm so not worthy to even set my eyes upon this site!!! so.very.cool By  Merideth, at 17/7/06 9:04 PM I'm jealous!!! By  penguininthesun, at 17/7/06 10:07 PM OMG. i bow to you!! this is awesome!! By  Purse_Ho, at 17/7/06 10:24 PM Very, very cool - I did a double and then a triple take when I saw the photo. Congratulations!!! By  callie, at 17/7/06 10:36 PM Congrats! I'll be waiting patiently for more information on this. Good work! By  carolb, at 17/7/06 10:38 PM It took a minute for me to realize who that very familiar looking woman was with YOU! You look so cute, btw. I would have been terrified of making a mistake. I am green with envy. By  Anonymous, at 17/7/06 11:53 PM Very nicely done. Congratulations. Is there more to this story? Did she hire you do to consulting? How exciting. By  happylaney, at 18/7/06 2:05 PM That is just amazing. I'd love to hear more! I would be *beyond* nervous if I had to present something to Martha Stewart. That's an awesome photo!!! By  Lisanne, at 18/7/06 5:13 PM Now that you put a check in that box..whats next? Dunh dun daaaaaahhhhh! By  Aaron, at 18/7/06 5:36 PM How exciting for you! I would have been stuttering and stammering like an imbecile. I am looking forward to seeing what good things come out of the Kodak and Martha Stewart partnership. By  little things, at 18/7/06 8:14 PM OMG! You met Martha! How special do you feel?! Giving her tips! OMG you rule! By  jmswilfong, at 18/7/06 8:58 PM oh wow, that is so spectacular! i would blow that picture up to poster size and frame it if i were you :) i heart martha! By  amy, at 18/7/06 9:51 PM I've read your blog for a couple of years now, but never commented before. I work for KESG and am the TPM for the Martha cards. You could have knocked me over with a feather yesterday when I saw the photo here! (knitswithcats.blog-city.com) By  Diann, at 18/7/06 11:26 PM Wow, I knew you were crafty!! Even Martha recognized your great talent! How cool is that!?!?! Auguri! By  american girl in italy, at 19/7/06 9:08 AM All hail LJC! After reading this blog for years and how much you've read her stuff and talked about her...what a kick to see you and Martha in the same photo! Yay for LJC! By  LadyGypsy, at 19/7/06 3:25 PM I'm really happy for you. You do realize that it was just a matter of time, right? I mean, it was bound to happen sooner or later. I really wouldn't be surprised if you started working for her. By  Yvett, at 19/7/06 5:34 PM no way!! That's awesome Jenny! By  mel, at 19/7/06 6:36 PM awesome! and you look so pretty in that photo! By  Anonymous, at 20/7/06 8:28 PM Jenny! That is SO EXCITING! And what a great photo too. :) By  Mary, at 21/7/06 11:58 AM No freakin' way!!!!!!
