I would like to share with all of you a card that I made and submitted to Paper Crafts magazine. It was accepted and is now on sale at Craft stores and Wal-Mart. I don't normally show a card that I have accepted by a magazine but I was very excited today to see my card in Paper Crafts magazine at Wal-Mart. It made me smile and I needed that today. :) I hope that my happy news will make you smile too.
Here is my card.
To make this card I used the Gina K. DesignsSpooky Silhouettes set. Those of you who follow my blog know that I love working with all stamps but I am partial to Silhouette stamps. With out a doubt this is my favorite Halloween stamp set! It's hard to believe that most of us will be making Halloween cards very soon.
Here is a photo of the Sept/Oct. 2009 Paper Crafts Issue.
Personal Ramblings
I have been keeping fairly busy since Saturday. Wayne and I went car shopping and we both bought a new car. As soon as I am able I will take a photo of them to share with you. Both of us bought a Nissan Sentra. His is red and mine is silver. :)
Yesterday and today it was in the 80's and it was very humid. Each night we have gotten a thunderstorm and lots of rain. But at least we have had sun during the day which has been nice to see. I hope that we have sun for my family BBQ on Sunday. I also hope that I am able to get a little stamping in this week. I'm sorry that this is so short but I have a few things to do before I go to bed and I have a very busy day tomorrow so off I go.
Have a terrific Tuesday. Smile. :)
Great card Mary! Congrats on having it published! Love that silhouette image. :o)

Congrats Mary on being published. I can't wait to see the magazine. I also can't wait to see pics of your new wheels. I am happy for both you and Wayne. You both deserve a new car. Now do you think Wayne could get me one too? Hee hee.
I am so happy Ed was picked. He was my personal choice long ago. I love everything about him. Wish it was me!! I hope you have a nice sunny day for the family Bar-be-que!!
