So I got the biggest scrap-related surprise EVER today! One of my scrappy-stampy friends Lucy emailed me from overseas congratulating me on my CARDS magazine cover!!! I was like……. “WHAT???” “HUH????” LOL I told her there must be some sort of mistake or oversight.
So she sent me this picture and sure enough they used my wedding card on the overseas version of the JULY 2009 issue of CARDS Magazine!!!!!!! I just received my May CARDS mags and this card is inside but it isn’t on the cover here in the States.
Doing the happy dance over here!!! This is my first cover and even though I have to track a copy of it down….. I am uber-duper excited!!!! I am still in shock and this news totally made my week!
Thanks sweet Lucy for giving me the heads up!!!
Happy Friday Ya’ll ♥

Woo Hoo Shanna, that’s Awesome! I saw that we were across from eachother . . . very, very cool!
How the heck are you? Feeling OK this time around? I miss ya . . . I got a new computer but haven’t had the time yet to write down my favorite bookmarks and switch onto my new computer. So, whenever I can get on the laptop (which is usually ALWAYS occupied and very SLOW) I hop onto your blog. Love your cards and LO’s, always so bright and fun!
June 24th, 2009 at 5:04 pm
AZAnjanette Says:
First Congratulations! All your stuff is amazing so it’s no shock that your card would be chosen. But what is shocking is that the magazine wouldn’t send you a copy with a congratulations of some sort to let you know they used your card on the cover! that’s just WRONG in my opinion! They should have been thanking you because it’s what we see on the cover that makes us want to buy a magazine! Keep rocking the paper world girlfriend!
