Finally--in PRINT!!


SO super excited!! The Scrapbook Trends Holiday Idea Book is out and my JOY card is actually in PRINT on one of the pages. I cannot believe it! This is WAY exciting for me :)

I've only seen the online edition and am anxious to see the actual magazine. They are supposed to send me copies but I'm not sure how long that takes.

When I first got the news a few months ago, I ran outside to DH and the kids and yell, "I'm going to be published!" They all kind of looked at me like I was crazy. My neighbor overheard and said over the fence, "Whoo Hoo!"

I'm so glad the info on the page credits Pam Callahan's template and the Hip 2b Square kit. Really important to me that they get credit where credit is due.

Thanks for sharing in my excitement :)
