Scrapbook Trends August 2008 Issue...

Well, for those of you who cannot get, don't know, or haven't seen, here are the two pages in the magazine that featured my mini book...

I have left the images nice and big, so if you click on them, you can see bigger pictures and even read the text....if you feel like it.

Well it is almost the end of the week again, and I am busy as always juggling work and crafting. I am just finishing of my ScrapaGoGo September DT work...almost there. Next week is a busy one her too as we are having out=r new bathroom fitted. Our bathroom is a shoebox, in fact the bath was fitted and the wall built around it, and the bathroom showroom owner could reach his arms out and touch both walls...LOL So we are ditching the bath and having a luxury shower instead....yay. So I will be home all week, looking after Georgia and working from home when I can.

TooT TooT FoR mE

I am so excited and chuffed. Back in January I submitted my Urban Lily Secret Keeper Book to Scrapbook Trends for inclusion in their August 2008 issue. Well yesterday afternoon, I received an email saying that they would like to include it and could I post it to them by Friday 4th.....I cannot believe it, it is the first time I have ever submitted anything to a US mag, and the first time I have submitted anything to them. So last night I got everything ready for posting, filled out their product list (which was fab and very extensive) and signed the form. Now I just have to pray that it arrives in time, and that they actually use it. For being asked to submit you receive a parcel of scrapping goodies and two copies of the magazine....not bad as you get it even if they don't end up using it.

So anyway, this weeks challenge over on Tilda & Friends ATC Challenge Blog is "Check it Out"...you have to use checks on your ATC.
So for mine I stamped onto checked paper and cut out Edwin's trousers, I then stamped again onto the green paisley paper and cut out the top, the rest of tme image has been coloured with Primacolor's and blended with Sansador. The papers are K&Co "Hopscotch", the ribbon is American Craft and I used my ATB tape writer for the words.

Thanks ladies, I really am enjoying making ATC's for the first time ever....it's so nice to make something that I can keep.
