A quick hello...

It's been quite a week and I just wanted to check in with a quick post.
I'll start off with this card I made for a call - I need to think of a nicer word than reject...maybe publication challenged?
** Project removed for publication **
I worked on & submitted my first Scrap That! review this week. That should be online soon. I'll keep you posted. I got to work with American Crafts product and I had a blast doing it.

I found out this week that I did not make the SEI design team - which is ok. They sent a nice email and offered me a guest designer spot which I happily accepted. I've been a big fan and user of SEI since I started scrapbooking so I'm happy to be a part in any way. I'll be looking forward to that and I can't wait to see who made the team. I bet they've assembled an impressive and talented group.

Also got invited to do a few other very cool things this week, which I will share in a future post. Now I need to work on my Studio challenge project due tomorrow and want to start work on a mini album for this - which I can't wait to get started on. Anyone else taking Picture Fall? I'll dedicate a post to that next week.

These types of cards for you (I won't say the word because they are too beautiful to be that) are amazing. Love the colors and patterns on this one.

yeah, you are definitely one of the best card makers I know so, well, you know how I feel about them missing out ; ) about the DT - you are talented enough to be on many design teams so keep at it.

Yeah...we should come up with a nice word. Reject does sound harsh. Publication challenged sounds great to me :) I love your card! And congrats on your DT spot! It's huge!
