Happy happy Friday! I made another circle card for the "Circle of Friends" Challenge over at Caardvarks:
For the little tree I die-cut a scallopped square from cardstock and cut out the triangle. All edges are inked with distress inks. I struggled with that ribbon for a while and it`s still not like I wanted it to be - next time I`ll use my beloved Papertrey ribbon again! I am used to ribbon that`s not arguing with me... Now to something else...I have to tell you this - I just can`t keep it for myself... I am happy, happy, happy , because I received an email that the Paper Crafts mag accepted 5 of my projects to be published in the May/June issue! I can`t believe it!! It`s a dream come true! My first publication ever! I`ll celebrate this in April with a blog candy. And in the meantime I`ll give away a blog candy when I reached a certain number of followers or hits... I want to share my happiness with you! It means so much to me to read your sweet comments and I am thankful for all that!
Sorry about the long post, I wasn`t planning to "talk" so much!
Have a fabulous day!
Hugs,
Vanessa
