Newsy news...

Happy Monday! ..... oh, wait.  Where did Monday go?  I guess it's actually Tuesday...and for those of you that read my blog through email subscription, you're probably reading this on Wednesday.  I meant to have a blog post scheduled for early this morning, but my Monday ended up being a bit of a mess.  Just one of those days.  :-) 

So, anyway!  I'm glad you stopped by, but I'm going to be sending you off all over the web today.  First off, a fun announcement on the Paper Crafts Connection blog.  I finally get to share with you that I'll be continuing on as a Go-to Gal for the 2014-15 term.  I just couldn't imagine not working with the folks over at Paper Crafts magazine and I'm excited that they're allowing me to stay on for another term.  I'm also excited to have two of my best paper crafting friends staying on -- Teri and Kimmers, you know I love you girls!

On the other hand, I am so sad to see Jennifer, Windy, and Julie move on.  We worked so well together the past two years and I just love these girls!  They are so talented -- I know each of them has big things in store!

But every cloud has a silver lining, right?  Mine is that I will get to meet and work with three brand new Go-to Gals.  Making new friends (especially crafty friends) is always a good thing.  Be sure to visit the Paper Crafts Connection blog tomorrow (Wednesday) as the new girls will be having their big reveal.  So excited for these talented ladies!  I can't wait to see what they have up their creative sleeves for the next two years.  

Now, a few more places to send you off to.  First, it was my turn to post over on the Pink Paislee blog yesterday.  I created a birthday ensemble based on this month's sketch.  Click HERE to see the sketch and my projects...here's a peek.  

And last, but not least, I'm hosting this week's Make it Monday challenge for Papertrey Ink.  Click HERE to see the video where I show you the water color + heat embossing technique I've used here on my blog a few times in the last month or so.  Here's the project I'm showing you.  I'd love it if you'd play along and link up your creations.  All of the details are on Nichole's blog HERE.  

Thanks so much for stopping by.  My kids are on spring break for the next week, so it's going to be busy around here.  Wish me luck.  :-)  See you back here soon.
