Oh me oh me oh my. This week has been a very exhausting week for me. Filled with so many emotions. I made it so far in the Last Scrapper Standing DT contest at CMK but unfortunately did not get the prize hehehe. Its all good - I spent a few days, with that sadness lump in my throat (you all know what I'm talking about) but my husband (who works as my great moral and common sense tick)reminded me that I really have some great layouts and projects after all and with that kind but firm way he has reminded me that I never should have had any sense of winning entitlement. He reminded me in his special kind way that I should have entered to play and not to win. You know I just luv my Hubby isn't he so smart ?!!!!!
Here are my projects I created during the contest:
Now one of the Super Talented girls that did win her name is Staci and a sweet scrap pal of mine . I'm gonna send you all to her Blog http://creatingmyeveryday.blogspot.com/ cuz she is amazingly talented !!!!!! She also tagged me but I don't have as much time to post today as I had hoped. I also just got tagged with a Brilliant Weblog award by another amazing designer and scrap pal Tanisha (Thanks Tanisha that really really made my day!). Please take time to visit her Blog as well for some major inspiration http://tanisharenee.blogspot.com/ !!! Hey Staci by the way if u read this ur gonna have to show me how to link the sites with out showing the url.

Awww sorry you didn't win hun ... but know this: you are an amazing & talented person ... so you will always be a winner even when you don't get the prize!
ReplyDeleteWow Norma, I am just in awe of your new stuff! And what a smart hubby. ;) Really really beautiful projects. Love your box of issues!
ReplyDeleteLOVE LOVE LOVE you box of issues. For what its worth-I find you your work inspiring!
ReplyDeletei'm inspired!! happy 4th July :)
ReplyDeleteNorma, I know that sadness lump all to well. :( Sorry about CMK. I love all your wonderful projects especially your book of issues. It's all the things I love about you. lol
ReplyDeleteOh, for the links....When you are posting - just highlight the word/words that you want to be "clickable". Then click on the link icon along the top (it looks like a chain link)and insert the url.
ReplyDeleteAww, Norma, you are SO sweet to give me a shout out on your blog like that!! Thanks girl! I truly truly love your work, and your LSS work was no different - you really rocked it, Norma! I think this industry is so full of ups and downs, and I think your DH is one smart man, b/c not winning does not by any means take away what an amazing artist you are!! I hope you had a fantastic July 4th weekend!! And yay RENEE for being the winner of Cute World!
ReplyDeleteOh, I forgot to share with you what I learned about the link stuff - I couldn't believe how easy it is! Ok, type the word you want to link, for example Croppinsvile. Then highlight it and click on the little globe looking symbol (when you run your mouse over it, it will say link), and a box will appear. Type in the web address, hit enter, and you're set! :-)
ReplyDeleteI'm a HUGE fan of your work! Congrats on making it to the final round! Happy 4th!
