Hey, y'all!
I've been sitting on some exciting news for almost six months but I can now share it! (I was so excited, I was afraid to mention it until I actually saw it in print.)
CardMaker Magazine has published my first article! It's about different tricks you can do with your dies, and you can read it in the Summer 2015 issue, available now at the big box stores (saw it in JoAnn's this weekend)! You can purchase CardMaker Magazine in the stores or you can get a digital copy if you have trouble finding one in the stores near you.
See my article? (It's at the bottom - SQUEEEEEEEEEL!)
Additional good news is that I've been asked to be a regular contributor for the 2016 issues! I get a picture and a bio and everything!!! I've received all of my article assignments and am very, very excited about this opportunity! (Thank you so much, Tanya and everyone else at CardMaker Magazine!)
(Is it possible to wear out your exclamation mark key? I'm getting close, I think.)
Thanks for stopping and have a blessed day!
congrats!! that is exciting. I'll have to check it out!

That is absolutely FANTASTIC news! Soooo not surprised. Your cards always looks so professional, & yet they are 'do-able' by others. I'd call that a winning combo....all the best with your 'assignments'...have FUN!!!!
