Almost the weekend...

Well yes I am getting another late start to the day. I have been cleaning all day and it is time to share a card that did not get picked by the Paper Crafts Magazine. Which by me is totally ok there are so many talented crafters out there. I am sure it is very hard for them to only pick a few. I just feel blessed with the three I have had published. But don't get me wrong I will always try again and again. You might also ask did I try out for Stamp Royalty? Why yes I did but you know if I am talking about it now that I did not get selected. But how cool is it that all those amazing cards will get donated to a great cause. I bet those are going to be some pretty happy people. 
So I say again and again..
Thank you so much for stopping by.
It brings me joy and I enjoy reading all of your comments.
Have a crafty day..(what's left of it anyways)

    This is one cute card that got slipped away...but then you know, getting published is one of the biggest challenges that all card makers face, right!? I can totally relate about what you said :) Keep calm and stamp on, Annette!

    This little guy caught my eye over at SSS. Love the stripes on his hat opposite the direction of the BG. As for the not-being-picked-for-publication syndrome... I totally agree with your realistic viewpoint. Enjoy it when it happens but don't sweat it when it doesn't. Easier said than done though, eh?!?!

    Such a great attitude, Annette! This cutie is a winner in my book! I haven't been so good about submitting to PaperCrafts. I think they're looking for something I don't have. I didn't submit for the last couple of calls. It's just so much work and takes a lot of the joy out of what I love to do. Have a blessed weekend, friend!
