I am soo bummed!

I was supposed to be published, for the first time, no less, in the March issue of CardMaker Magazine! And I had everyone going crazy to buy a copy! And guess what?? I'm not in it!! I am so upset! And I feel stupid telling everyone I was going to be published finally!! Oh well!! Next time I won't say anything until I actually see it!! :(

Anyway, here is a card I did for today's Color Challenge over at Splitcoast. We had to use Rose Red, Kiwi Kiss(olive)and Mustard. I don't have these exact colors, so I improvised! I used paper from My Mind's Eye, Bazzill cardstock and stamps from October Afternoon and Studio G. Just a fun little card for a new homeowner!

Have a great night and thanks for listening to me Rant!! :) I will have some good news tomorrow though!! ;)

Hugs,

  5. How RUDE that you weren't in the magazine! Did you find out why? It's one of my life goals to be published and if they told me I was going to be then took it away...I might have to go a little crazy on their *rear ends*.

    Well you got pretty close so I'm sure it's coming soon! :) :) :)

  13. This is darling Melissa! I LOVE the little dingle balls on the roof ~ too cute!!!!

    Don't be bummed about your card not being in there, I was supposed to have 2 and only 1 (which I feel lucky about) was in there. The bad thing is that I told the lady from the stamp company, Serendipity, that I had a card in the new CardMaker using their stamps and then it didn't even get in there!!!! ACK!!!! Lindsey has had that happen to her as well! It still stinks although, as beautiful as your work is, it will just be a matter of time until we see you in a publication!!!
