IT'S HERE...I'm in CREATING KEEPSAKES!

HOLY COW!!! I can hardly believe that I am holding my first Creating Keepsakes publication in my hands!! WOOOOOO HOOOOOOO!!! My "E is for Easter" mini book and twig purse are on pages 107-108 of the April 2008 issue of CK. There is also an online article extension that you can get to by clicking on the title above. This extension is an article I wrote about the mini album and tips for printing photos on grocery store bags. Also, my pirate ship layout is in the extension.

I am so darn tickled!!! And there is more good news! My 2nd publication with CK will be coming in June... and I just had a project picked up by "Home and Heart Magazine" that will be published in August! WOOOO HOOOOO!!!

SPECIAL LINK... A special friend posted the most touching and heartfelt story on her blog about Jeff and me and her congrats on my first CK pub. She was able to get our courtship, proposal, cancer and scrapping into a few short paragraphs and reduced Jeff and me to tears... happy tears... Thank God we made it throught that tears... love tears... Check out Eileen's post on her blog "Life in the Sandpit" called, "Tracey's Published." http://lifeinthesandpit-eileen.blogspot.com/

Off to start the corned beef and cabbage... yep... today is the big Donnelly St. Patrick's Day dinner here at the house! Time to get GREEN

Coming in from Eileen's blog. She's right. You're so pretty! The adoption part of your story jumped right out at me. Jeff's awesome (reminds me of my dh, who when called by CPS about our 4th child, said "YES!" without even checking with me first, lol. Gotta love men who love children just because). I don't get CK magazine, but I'll be sure to check the April issue out at our library next time I'm there. CONGRATS on being selected.
Blessings,
~Toni~
