The thrill of victory... the agony of defeat


I am posting today with some very exciting news to share.... I just found out that a card I submitted to Paper Crafts Magazine has been accepted for publication. It's my first time being published (if you don't count the Ads by Kids contest I won in the 6th grade), so I am just thrilled. But with the one card that was accepted, four were declined.
Dr. Amber had the brilliant idea to showcase these unloved treasures through a reject blog hop.
Below, I am sharing three of the four cards I submitted for the circus call.


Tons of Love




Nuts for You





Party Animal




Thanks for stopping by!

Cheers!

Katie

  6. OMG! Those peanuts are about the cutest bunch of cuteness I've seen! Selfishly - I'm happy to see these in the blog hop because they are just that fab! I don't want to have to wait to see this kind of beautiful crafting!

    Thanks for being a part of the hop!
