Congratulations to Joan Fowler!

Oh please, you have to pick me. I just love the whole bubble wrap thing. I NEEEEED it. Creating this stamp strikes me as a very inspired idea. You rock!

Joan, you have won a set of the stamps I designed for Scrapbook Takeout for August.  E-mail me your mailing address and I'll pop them in the mail to you!

2.  I'm going to be taking over the "Templates x3" article in Scrapbook Dimensions Magazine.  It's a column about how to use a single digital template in three different ways when you're hybrid scrapbooking.  I will also focus on using a standard 8.5x11" printer while scrapping 12x12" pages.  For the upcoming issue, I'm working with a fabulous template from Lauren Reid at Little Dreamer Designs (which is one of my favorite digi sites)!

3. In a bit of sad news, I've decided to leave My Creative Classroom.  They're doing great things and have big plans for the future.  I wish all the ladies there the best of luck!

4. As I've mentioned before, I've become type obsessed.  Well, there's a new and super cool looking challenge site called, "The Creative Type."  And from the looks of the design team, it's going to be *amazing* and very inspiring.

5. I have a new blog discovery: Something Sublime.  This woman makes jewelry and it is fabulous!  Her style is so my style.

6. I can hardly believe that I've posted eight days in a row!  Something must be wrong with me!  Or, I'm just letting all my work pile up and blogging instead...

Thanks for stopping by!

Photo A Day 2008

  • 06.15.08
    My goal is to take one photo a day, every day for 366 days (it's a leap year). The only rule is that I cannot edit the photos after taking them. No cropping, no playing with the levels. They are what they are. Click on any image to see a larger 4x6 view rather than the small square preview view and to read about what the image is.
