Hi All - I'm new to this message board & I've been a fan since I was 11 (when Bella Donna was released). I have many, many stories to share, if you're interested. I've been lucky enough to have met Stevie twice - VERY lucky!
Anyway, the reason I'm posting is to try to find out if anyone has pics or video of me giving Stevie a painting during Edge on Saturday. The bummer part of this, is that after she took it, she turned back around and thanked the guy IN FRONT OF ME! Yikes! Hey, wait a minute! :confused:
I didn't think I would, but I came back to Seattle and really missed having that artwork at my bedside, working on it in the evenings. Anyway, I hope to have fun on this site and make some new friends! THANKS

Oh man...that would kill me. After working on something that you really love and then giving it to Stevie, only to have her thank someone else? I'd die. Feel comfort in knowing you've met her already and that schmo that she thanked instead of you may never get the chance.

I'm sorry about Stevie thanking the wrong person. But you've met her twice, which is cool! :thumbsup:

I saw you giving her the painting, but didn't take a picture. Perhaps the lesson to learn for all who give her gifts is to make sure your contact details are on the back or somewhere, so that if she wants to thank you properly, she has that option.

I was standing a few people away from you. I got a glimpse of it. Was there some text on it too? It looked kinda like a poster to me. The cool thing is apparently she hangs artwork up in her studio! So, you might be on her wall!!!!

Welcome to the Ledge. Sorry to hear Stevie thanked the wrong person for your painting! The cool thing is she took it. Maybe go over to the Nicksfix and send her a birthday greeting there. She gets them and really appreciates them. You could mention the painting and Vegas there if you want. I wrote something about the yorkie bag since I doubt she could even read my name in the card! My writing is horrible. It would be a kick to hear something back but I don't count on that.

Well, golden_braid spotted the yorkie bag in a boutique at Paris and 8 of us chipped in and bought it for Stevie. It is beaded and really cute. We heard thru Sharon that she loved it :D Yorkies are soooo cute. What is your dog's name?

A few of us here were out shopping and saw a totebag with a Yorkie on it, so we thought it would be a cute gift for Stevie. We weren't able to get it to her from the stage, but Sharon said she'd be happy to bring it back for us. When I met her again another night, she asked if we were the ones who had given her the bag to give to Stevie, and responded that Stevie really loved it and didn't want to put it down. Maybe she was just humoring us, but who knows ;)
Here's a picture of it.

Well, as a fellow dog person, I can tell you I SQUEAL with delight everytime someone gives me any Scottie stuff. I have pillows, salt and pepper shakers, stationary - I love it all. She seemingly is a crazy dog person as well - so odds are she LOVED it :cool:

Yes yorkies are soooo cute and mine's the cutest yorkie in the whole world. She's really little too (only 4 lbs and she's 2 yrs old). Meet Stevie....

You know, that pic does not do it justice. You have to see it close-up - the whole thing is beaded - very pretty! :nod:

Awww thank you so much xoxo. She's a little devil though. As a puppy she destroyed a lot of things including my carpet and walls (from chewing on them). She is also obsessesd with buttons, zippers, and lingerie so I must keep all of that out of her reach. The cutest thing is that she knows Stevie's voice. As a puppy I would play Stevie's music and say "Stevie Stevie" over and over and I swear her ears perk up now whenever I play a Stevie song or video.

I have a partial scan of the artwork about 1/2 way through (January). I can post it if I can figure out how . . . Yes, there was calligraphy at the bottom. It's supposed to look like a vintage circus poster (that's what I was going for, anyway). [/IMG]

Then again she may not....Still no thank you note for the flowers from the ledgies...*grumble*grumble*grumble* :mad: (Just teasing, I wasn't expecting anything... Well... Landslide dedication to the ledgies might have been nice) :p :laugh: :lol: :D
AND WELCOME TO THE LEDGE MARK!!!

I saw it being handed up there too - I remember cracking up and quoting Stevie from the BD video to Bruce, "Did you see that huge painting? I can't carry that!!" :laugh:

Hi there, Mark! :wavey: Welcome!

So share them anyway. You can't have that horrible of an opinion of her if you gave her a painting - right? Or was the painting of skulls & fire & daggers & blood & stuff? :laugh:

Welcome, Mark. Your painting sounds beautiful and I'll bet she's got it up and looks at it often. You could maybe try to drop her a note through her management to ask if she likes it? Good luck. You met her twice! I'd be overwhelmed to have that opportunity. Good for you! :cool:
SapphireSister, your yorkie is adorable! I want one now! :nod:
