OMG!!!!

Can I just say that I have been waiting a long, long while for one such manufacturer to announce their latest creative design team call, but it seems as of today, I need not wait anymore!  For those of you who really know me, then you know that it has been a dream, but most of all a goal for me to one day design with Fancy Pants Designs!!  Can I just stress how over the moon I am with FP products?!  I just love everything and anything that they put out, and yes, I really, really want to be a part of their creative team so badly!  So, if you too are interested in joining the Fancy Pants team, you can check out their call HERE!  Now that the call is actually on the doorstep, I admit that I'm scared to submit, but I won't chicken out!  Having tried two other other previous calls of theirs and having received two honorable mention spots from them, I am hoping, as the saying goes, that three times is the charm!  Please, please think happy positive thoughts for me as I make the decisions on what exactly to submit now! 

Onto other things for the week... it was fun to see my card featured over at the create: blog this past week!  The weekly card challenge was to create a star shaped card.  I love stars so I had fun playing around with this one.

I started this one by wrapping a Magistical Memories star shaped chipboard frame with some green dotted sheer ribbon and went from there. 

 AND, I just found out that I won the "Bring Your Friends" contest at For The Luv of Art.com!! Sooo fun... I recruited many of my friends, 15 of them in total I believe, to the site!  I will be getting a free kit of Norma's at FTLOA, so I am looking forward to checking out the Sept. kit when she debuts it on the 10th! Ohh, and I was even given a crown and named "Queen of Recruitment"!  Lol!   To all my friends that have joined me over at FTLOA now, thanks for coming on over!   I've enjoyed seeing you all there with us and I do hope you'll stick around! 

OK, I'm off and on my way to Lowe's.  I've decided to do some re-decorating of my scrap room and I'm starting on some of the accents so I need to make a run for some Colonial Red spray paint.  Hope they have some!  :)  Enjoy the rest of the week... tomorrow is the weekend already!
