Scrapbooking Memories Toot

Way back in February, before I ever thought about designing or that I would ever be with the Little Dreamer Designs amazing team, I got an e-mail from Scrapbooking Memories inviting me to design their free paper and alpha for the month of September. It was quite a shock. I have being published in the magazine a couple of times but never thought myself capable of designing anything (still don't, LOL); so I went hard at work to design something suitable. My first attempt was a disgrace, my second attempt was too simple and subtle, and they wanted something really flowery and colorful. So my third attempt was ok, but they asked me twice to include more flowers... well, I kinda like it except that many flowers are not my cup of coffee, but I was ever so proud to finally see it in print (the colors are a bit weird in the photo).

me and free paper

If you have access to the Magazine, it was Vol.10 No.06.
