Above is one of the pages I had sent in for this article. I used some of my favorite Websters Pages papers from the 'In Love' collection as well as their stamps, blooms (Princess Petals), Alphabet stickers and Gem strips. And of course, given that it's an Aussie Magazine, I had to liberally use my Dusty Attic chippies as well! (Skelleton Clock Frames, flourish). Just a quick note: I get many questions on where to find Dusty Attic products. You can find a list of retailers that sell Dusty Attic online at the right column of my blog, and you can also find more retailers at the Dusty Attic Ning site. Here are a few close-up pic's of the page....
A little over a week ago I got another big surprise from them! I was told that I got the cover of the magazine with this layout! While I admit I have been pubbed a number of times it isn't that often that I get the cover! The photo I scrapped is of my sweet nephew and his new bride (a beautiful photo taken by a good family friend and excellent professional photographer Gord Wenzel, Impressions Photographic Studio). Here is a picture of the January issue...
The issue hits the news stands on Friday January 11th! If you would like to subscribe you can find the information here at this link Practical Publishing And for any of you fortunate girls that will be attending CHA this coming weekend in Anahiem, California, Australian Scrapbook Ideas will be there with their own booth and will be giving out copies of this issue to the attendies! They will also be showing many of the layouts shown in their magazine in their booth including 3 of the layouts I sent them! I Sooooo wish I was going! Be sure to pop in to see them and send my love to them if you do! :)
I apologize in advance that I've had to put on my word verification for the comments on this blog, I've had a huge amount of spam comments on my blog lately and so, as much as I hate to put you all through the comment verification process I feel I need to do this for a time until the spammers disappear. Thanks so much for stopping by my blog today and taking the time to leave your kind comments! They mean a lot to me! xo
