Hey girls!

I hope you all have had a wonderful New Years. The hubby and I rang in the New Year with a few friends and popped the champagne cork at midnight! Whoo-hoo! I actually stayed up this year. I won't bore you with my New Year's resolutions this time because they are pretty much the usual except that one involves crafting. This year I am going to start submitting to magazines. I have noticed that most of you (my blog friends) have and were published, so I thought, why not? Who cares if they are never picked but at least I can say I tried. Right?

Anywho, I wanted to pop in to share a card I made for the latest Play Date Cafe Color Challenge #62. I used a few of my new stamps from Papertrey Ink that I recently purchased as a gift to myself for Christmas. LOL!

Thanks for stopping by for a visit.

Well it's about time you start submitting! You WILL get picked up - just keep trying if not the first go 'round. Good luck to you :)

I love your card too! The faint musical notes paired with the hot pink is just... HOT! lol

Yes you definitely must start submitting Brandi, your cards are beautiful! I love the two backgrounds you have used here - the music and polka dots and of course the dress form.

You will do great...I can't wait to see your name and cards in the magazines that I get:-) I started to last year and then got discouraged way too easy. Maybe I should start again too??

LOOOOOVVEE this! Fab use of the colors and I'm such a sucker for polka dots so I'm swooning over that scallop!!
I'm so glad you're going to go for it and start submitting!! Your work is gorgeous so its about time ;)
The only sure way to NOT get published is to NOT submit. I'd rather have a chance then a sure thing anyday!! :D
