I'm published!!!

Oh my gosh! I hope you don't mind if I toot my own horn for just a minute but I just got home from The Angel Company (TAC) seminar and I'm so excited! They did an open design call for this catalog and I had a card that was selected to be printed in the catalog!!! woo hoo! Here's my card.
It features the So Girly and Tag Tidbits stamp sets (both of which I've used several times on my blog). The So Girly image is paper pieced with Uptown Girl paper and is layered on matchmaker papers scored with the scor-pal and sanded to bring out the grid design. The coluzzle was the tool used to cut the oval. The TAC catalog features 5 basic card sketches for this catalog and has the number of the sketch by the card that was chosen. It's neat to see how many different ways a sketch can be interpreted. Anyway, I've never been published before and this really made my day!!! thanks for letting me share!

Seminar was a blast and it was great to laugh and create with so many wonderful angels. I enjoyed meeting so many wonderful people and it was a special treat to meet two of my SBS4 sisters, Diana and Rita W. They're such sweet ladies! And, it was wonderful to hang with my "peeps" as I haven't laughed so hard in a long time (or at least not since we last got together to stamp - ha!).

The new TAC catalog is fantastic! I really like the punch out mini albums! They're double-sided and can be put together in soooo many different combinations. I'll post some pics in a day or two after I've had some sleep. :) Oh, 1 more thing - there are SEVEN new punches!!! even Flowers!!!! woo hoo!!! I'm going to be so poor after getting everything I want. Thank goodness I have 7 months to shop with this catalog! :)

Cheers! and Happy Stamping!

wOOHOO, So happy for you! That is terrific news, and I love the paper piecing, too, and the score lines in the paper are really a nice touch as well.
