OMG, Scarlett, I've Been Published!

When I got home from work tonight, I did the usual - dropped my purse, my shoes and my bra in the bedroom (ok TMI, sorry) and headed for the kitchen to read the mail. Lots of junk mail and then on the bottom was my August issue of Vamp Stamp News. I got dinner going - cod in the oven and broccoli in the steamer - and sat down on the couch to open my magazine.
I always look at the front cover, then the centerfold (color photos) and then the back cover before I delve inside, and when I turned the magazine over, my jaw fell open. There on the back cover of VSN was one of my cards! OMG!!! It was a card I'd done for justjohanna when I was on the Design Team. It is one of my favorites, too. I had almost forgotten I'd submitted cards to VSN. How fun is that, kids?
My card is the middle one on the right side. It's the justjohanna grande teacup in a weird design. I colored all the teacups with my Prismas. Kind of kaleidosopy. Is that a word? I was so excited to see it that I showed my hubby and he said "cool". Wow, he said "cool".
Now I am waiting to hear from Rubber Stamp Madness about another couple of justjohanna cards I submitted for their Halloween issue due out in September. I've got my fingers crossed my cards make it in that issue. Halloween is my favorite holiday.
I'm so happy I ate some Oreos!
