A Few Good Things

I have a lot of fun news to report.

My Making Memories finally arrived in the mail and there I am on page 68. Yikes. While having my LO in the mag is totally cool I cringed a little when it was one featuring my old mug right there front and center. LOL. I was a little surprised about the journalling as I was asked to include it all and the thrust of the article was to be "new beginnings- overcoming adversity" but none of the text was printed. It was a great issue this month and I'll be sad to see Memory Makers go.

A little while back Split Coast Stampers hosted a Vegas Themed Stamp Night. I was thrilled to be chosen for VSN Honors and receive one of the high roller distinctions for my Something Blue card. The talent over there is off the charts. I am incredibly honored to be chosen. If you haven't joined Split Coast Stampers I highly recommend checking them out. They have scrapbooking too :-)

and speaking of Bombshells...

I've been asked to be a full-time Bombshell Girl and I accepted. I think my love for Shannon's images is pretty well-known and continuing to work with Bombshell Stamps is an amazing opportunity for me. So expect to see a lot more Bombshell love in the future.

I finally tried out digital stamps last night. I decided to give the Bollywood set by Sandra Dry a whirl. It is a big challenge coloring open line art and I have a lot of room to grow in my skills. That said, I thought the images were decent enough to make into a note card set - what do you think? Hair is KILLER! You just have a general hair shape and have to draw in all the texture and sections yourself. Yikes!
