time to update

Hello to everyone.

Not much to report today, but I wanted to share some exciting news (no, I'm not pregnant).  You may know that I have a card blog, where I show cards that I've made, etc.  Well, recently I've been submitting cards to be published in card/craft magazines, and one of my cards was selected!  I will be published in the March 2010 issue of CARDS magazine, which is one of my favorite craft magazines.  I can't wait!  I already had to box up the card and send it with details on the materials I used, how to make it, etc.  They'll send it back to me after the March issue comes out and will send a bunch of cardmaking goodies and 2 copies of the magazine along with it.  Yay :)  This was kind of a goal when I got started and I have come a long way since the beginning of my blog.  I've had fun learning about different techniques, trends, etc.  Each publication asks for specific criteria depending on the issue, so that's how you decide what to submit.  Here's an example.  Anyway, I can't show you the card now, but after it's published I will be sure to post it on here. :)

Adelle is as cute as ever and is becoming more and more dependent on us for entertainment.  She's never been too attached, but lately she wants to be held or us to be playing with her all the time.  She also got her first ouchie this week... nothing serious, but she slipped and hit her face on the corner of the coffee table.  It didn't break skin, but she has a long bruise line down her cheek.  She barely cried -- just got mad when I tried to put ice on it.

That's all!  Hope everyone is doing well.
