And the winner is.......

I attended Sask Scraps last weekend. What a hoot. I got to meet and take a class with Allison Orthner. Wow!!!!This lady is fantastic! If you ever get to take one of her classes do so. Jill Hildebrand is a riot! Leica Forrest is amazing! Yes I had a good time. I did a little shopping, a little scrapping and a lot of visiting.

I was encouraged by friends and family to enter some layouts for publication....so I did. Holy Smokes did I represent.LOL. I had 2 LO's chosen for Honorable mention and 1 will be published in Canadian Scrapbooker Magazine. WOW!!!It's been a week and I think I am still floating on cloud nine.LOL. Here I am posing with Jackie Ludlage from Canadian Scrapbooker Magazine. This lady is so much fun to hang with.

I can't show you a picture of my winning LO but I will post my honorable mention LO's over the weekend.

I am so excited to announce that my friend Andrea Hipkin also had multiple wins on the weekend and will have a page published in Canadian Scrapbooker Basics. Yeah Andrea!!!!!

I love the picture of Kayne just enjoying the day. I knew I didn't want this layout to have a "little boy" feel to it but I didn't know what direction to go either. I definitely don't mind stepping out of my comfort zone so I tried some of Wilna's paint it mentality. I am not sure yet if I like the layout but I don't hate the results so I guess that is good. I will try painting again on future layouts as I did have fun creating this one. The chipboard letters have crackle paint,perfect pearls ink and glossy accents.

The Fall Issue of Canadian Scrapbooker is out!!!! It's on the shelves....run don't walk to get your copy.  I am so excited to be featured  in the Passport to Creativity!!! What an honour.I freaked to put it mildly when I opened that email. :) :)  These are the 3 LO's that I created for the issue. I stressed over my Bio and felt a little "nerdy" answering my interview questions, but when it's all said and done I am very proud of how it all looks and reads. I want to send a big SHOUT OUT to my friend Karen of KMP Photography for doing my head shots and scraproom photos too. Bird Call was created with Bo Bunny and some vintage goodies. I used my hole punch distress technique to finish it off. I wish I could Freeze Time consists of Graphic 45 and some yummy Tim Holz items. Toes is my last page. It has Basic Grey and my all time favorite photo of 2009. Now who else was is this magazine????? How about checking out my friend Kate ...she was featured in Pas...
