Martha Stewart approved...
That's me! A few weeks ago I found out about Martha's call for LOs for her scrapbooking contest and figured what the heck, i'll give it a try. I put it out of my mind as I know there were thousands of entries, but then a couple of weeks ago I got a call from one of her producers that they wanted to talk with me. Of course I wasn't home and when I tried to call the producer back 4 days in a row was unsuccessful. Once again I put it out of my mind. Then I got an email that they wanted to talk to me and to please call them...I did, and was never able to get hold of anyone again! Fast forward to a couple of days ago and I get another email and they want a picture of me because I am being considered as a finalist, I email the picture, try to follow up with a call and nobody!! Yesterday evening one more email came accross that they wanted to know how to pronounce my name so at that point I figured I was in the running for something. Today just happened to be my day off so I sat through the entire show, & about 2 minutes from the end, there's Martha saying my name with my picture at the bottom of the t.v. screen, kinda' surreal. This is ever so exciting as I have been hesitant to submit anything up until now, but this gives me the confidence to submit to some of the scrapping mags finally. Of course it was a Mugsy LO that was picked...this one to be precise

Congratulations! Your stuff is always so amazing. Don't hesitate in sending off more layouts to the mags. Your stuff is 1000x's better than most of what is being published nowadays.
