A featured publication... 42

Mona Pendleton | Wednesday, October 24, 2012 @ 9:00 PM | , , , , ,

Hi there dear blogging friends! I love to travel but it's always nice to return home and sleep in one's own bed. I can't wait to pick up my furry babies from the pet resort early Thursday morning! I hope they don't think I abandoned them, they are quite spoiled and my little Gretchen is rarely more than 4 feet from me. She is definitely my shadow where Griffin is a little more independent and spends many hours upside down, sleeping on the couch :)

I've always said, having the opportunity to be published is like winning the paper crafting lottery! I am quite honored to share with you a collection of cards that I had featured in the awesome Simply Cards & Papercraft Magazine Issue 101. If you are not familiar with Simply Cards & Papercraft Magazine, it is a magazine brought to us from Practical Publishing located in the UK and is full of fabulous inspiration from designers around the world. I recently discovered that my local Jo-Ann Fabric & Craft store carries not only Simply Cards & Papercraft Magazine but many other publications offered by Practical Publishing.

The focus of this feature was Chevrons. I combined a variety of MFT stamps, Die-namics and pretty patterned paper from the Pink Paislee London Market Collection to make this suite of 8 cards.
Thanks so much for visiting! I hope you have a great day/evening!
Be Sweet ;)

Hi Mona, yeah another fab publication, you already inspired me to make a few, those colours would work well in your CR84FN this week.

Hope you had a safe journey home. Your photos of NYC looked like you had a fab time, off on my travels too, in a couple of weeks, really excited, but I know exactly what you mean about sleeping in your own bed. Nothing beats it.

Hugs Carol x
