1st Magazine Publications

The February 2010 issue of CARDS Magazine has been live for a month now! I was so stoked to see my work in print! I emailed my family and attached screen shots. Most of them went out and bought the issue! Being published was definitely on my bucket list and I hope to continue to see my work in print from here on out

For my card, I combined 2 challenges, 2S4U and the CARDS Blog Challenge to use 5 buttons! I was instantly drawn to Sarah’s interpretation of the sketch and made a place card for our Thanksgiving table. If you open the tri-fold card, you’ll see a journaling space for one to write what they are thankful for!

I also used fabric and Mod Podge! If you’re interested in Mod Podge, GO HERE, today they have a feature on Yours Truly
