I Have The Best News!

I got some great news a few days ago! I have been chosen to be a part of the ScrapVillage design team. Scrap Village is a wonderful online scrapbook community affiliated with Jordan Paper Arts. It has an amazing design team with many frequently heard names and many Hall of Fame winners. In other words- I’m floored, honored and tickled PINK that they’ve asked me to become one of their City Planners! In my new position I will get to contribute scrapbook pages and paper craft projects to their features, and I get to write a few articles for their newsletters! I love to write, so being chosen to be a part of this for both my artistic and writing talents puts me right up on cloud nine!

The first feature that I’m a part of has already come out, so go ahead and click to see!

On a down note, I was kicked off of Survivor. However, things got a bit ugly over there after I left; so I was glad to have been eliminated, and not feeling too badly about it since I was eliminated because I was the biggest threat. I took losing as a big compliment. I am in two other contests right now online as well. One is a participation based contest that I have a pretty good chance of winning (I’ve been participating my little heart out!) And the other is a monthly layout contest that I have just as good a shot at as the next guy, so there’s hope there too! I will find out about both of them Around October 1st.
