My assignment for the Green Moms Carnival this month was to explain why I love to blog in 250 words or less. Instead of attempting to wax poetic about the wonderful world of blogging or try to explain why on earth I spend so much time on something that barely brings in enough money to cover the hosting fees, I figured I'd try something different. I created a Wordle using all the words that come to mind when I think about why I blog. I think it tells my story pretty well!
Have you ever made a Wordle? They are addicting!
The Green Moms Carnival will be hosted this month by Karen at Best of Mother Earth starting on Monday, February 14th - Valentine's Day!!

I love wordles. I've used them to make birthday cards for me kids. With words, or even just the letters of his name (repeated different amounts so they are different sizes). I made one once for my husband with all of his wonderful attributes. You can burn LOTS of time switching the format until it is just how you love it. They are a little TOO much fun.

I love your wordle. It really does tell a story-knowing that you chose the colors, words and shape. Now I have to try it!

I love using wordles!! What a creative way to express how you feel about blogging.

Micaela, I had seen wordles before, but never knew how to make one - so thanks! I think I may use it to make a Valentine's Card for my DH this year! I tried it automatically on my blog, but it picked up odd things like the words from Wordpress plug-ins.
Anyway, yes, your wordle is all you! :)

I designed a wedding invitation using this model - I adore how much the words speak for themselves. Best yet - they describe you perfectly!!

I grabbed a wordle as well, thanks to you. It gives new meaning to illustrating a point. Thanks for all you do to illustrate the pointless things being done to harm the world as well, and how we can change for the better.
