How Exciting!

Wowza! I have some really fun stuff to share with you guystoday! I don't even know where to begin! Hmmm.....

How about last February when I had the most amazing conversation with one of my stamping idols the one and only Gina K! Holy heck batman! She actually asked if I would like to be a Guest designer for her in September! OHMYGOSH!

Now you have to understand that back then I was doing not a whole lot other than challenges. I LOVE challenges! I was completley blown away that she even knew who I was! I was such a huge fan of hers and totally in love with her stamps! Guest designer! Are you kidding! Yes, yes, YES!

Well a secret lover I am not! Do you have any idea how hard it has been keeping this secret for this many months! Ugh! This is the kind of secret you like to have but I was ready to shout it from the roof tops! Happy that I finally can! You guys know that I met Gina when I was at CHA....
Isn't she just the cutest thing! Love her! And she's is one of the sweetest people you will ever meet!

Well, I have been working with some super cute stamps from Gina and over the next three days will be able to share those projects with you! The first is one of my favs. This is from Gina's Happy Haunting set. I so LOVE this set. It's got trick or treaters and this...the spookiest silhouette house ever! Getting this picture was quite a challenge! Not only because the lighting was so hard to try and figure out! (Thank you, Gina, for helping me out!) ...but also because my jelly beans kept mysteriously disappearing! I must have a house full of jelly belly gremlins! They're the cutest little gremlins you ever saw! Of course, being their mom makes me just a little biased!

Thanks for stopping by you guys! And a super big thanks to Gina! This was truly such an honor! I am so excited to have had the opportunity to work with you!

Post you all soon!

Congratulations for being the guest designer for Gina! Your use of the halloween stamp set is adorable! What a cute idea!

This reminds me about way back when we were potty training our kids we would have a jelly bean jar. Every time the child was successful they got a jelly bean and told they were a big boy (or big girl for my daughter). My younger brother was living with us (going to college) when we were potty training our daughter and my brother would come home from school, grab a handful of jelly beans and say, "I've been a really big boy! I went potty lots of times!" LOL Your jelly bean jar would have been perfect!
