Smokovich?

Pronoucned

smoke * ugh * vich

Today I'm addressing this CONSTANT question I've been asked over and over again since getting engaged. The questions come from industry friends and colleagues, designers, and scrapbooking friends including Bella Blvd fans.

"Are you going to change your last name?"

It might take people a bit of time to learn the change, but I think it's important. I mean, who wouldn't want to be a Smokovich when you take a look at this handsome family of go-getters!

The answer is easy:

Y E S .

I want to. It's that easy. It honestly never crossed my mind not to change it. The question is mostly asked because the industry now acknowledges my designs by Stephanie Hunt, including fabric with Riley Blake, Rubber stamps with Unity and the signature Bella Blvd brand.

Truth is: Change is Good.

as in soon-to-be Stephanie Smokovich!

Good for you!!!! I know a lot of people question my hyphenated last name... but TUCKER isn't even MY name -- it's my exes name -- but we had a son together -- and when I became a WOLEK and we have a daughter with the name WOLEK -- I didn't want my son to be left out -- so I kept my Son's name! Not my exes... lol... my Son's! ;)
