My first entry challenge for Making Memories Crafting
This is a stamp from Bugaboo and I made a card

ALPHA STAMPS GUEST DESIGNER PROJECT

I have just submitted my Guest Design Project to Alpha Stamps.  Fingers crossed.  The pictures are hard to do as I take them with my phone camera.  Here are some of the pictures I submitted.  The theme is Steampunk Mermaids Under The Sea/

Hopefully they will like them and I will be accepted to their site and will be asked to do work for them again.  I really enjoyed making this, even though it was difficult and it was a challenge, it was loads of fun.  I put all my work on my blog, and facebook but mostly I try to submit as much as I can to get published into several different magazines

Wow, I just found out that I will be published again in Bella Crafts Magazine.  It is a free online
magazine so everyone can see it.  One of my collages Time 4 Tea will be in the reader's spotlight
this coming Fall.  I am so excited.

I am over the moon excited.   My turn has come up to be the guest designer on the Alpha Stamps site
I am going to do a Steampunk Mermaid shadowbox.  I hope I can keep my end up on this challenge.  Then even more exciting is that a woman name Sonia saw my work and messaged me and said she thought my work was awesome and would love to have me on her Design Team Making Memories Crafting, I was so excited I accepted the offer.  To be even more excited, a friend of hers, Nicola, is starting her own Design Team and Sonia told her about my work, she saw it and was very pleased so she asked if I would join hers as well.  It is entitled Day Dream Challenges.   I can't believe I will be a guest designer for Alpha Stamps, one of my favorite sites and on two Design Teams.  Everyone is lovely and very helpful.  The best thing is that I don't have to do any videos, which I am not experienced at doing.  So this should be a fun journey for me.

I hope I can stand up to these challenges, It will keep me very busy and I am looking forward to it.

Starting July, 2017 will be my first Design Team Project for Making Memories Crafting
I am very excited to start this new adventure.  I am deciding what to make as the rules
are that I can make anything I want or I can pick one of their digital stamps and use
that.  We will see!!!

I submitted the following project to Through The Door Magazine which is an online magazine
They loved it and I won!!   I won a gift certificate to Amazon and got published in their magazine.
This is so exciting, as I love making collages, This was one of my favorites.  My little essay
said I loved this picture because it reminded me of how beautiful my mom was.

Good Morning!   I was just asked to be a part of a Design Team, Making Memories Crafting by Sonia Talbot.  I was nervous to dive into this but I accepted!!  I can make anything I want and it is on a monthly basis.  I am really looking forward to working with Sonia and making some great items!!
