Good Morning!
Digital patterned paper - Cosmo Cricket; Thickers - American Crafts.
A very happy FIFTH birthday to Scrapbook and Cards Today!!! It's no easy feat to continually put out an on-trend, visually pleasing and informative publication that always has its finger on the pulse of the industry!!
Catherine and Becky do a tremendous job, issue after issue!
I would be remiss if I didn't give a shout out to Kerry McCrorie who was instrumental in helping Catherine build and shape the magazine from the very beginning. She initially reached out and took a chance on me, and the rest, as they say, is history!
I love contributing to this magazine! It always has such a sense of 'fresh' about it. The colours, the fonts, the paper, the layouts that are featured - it all speaks to me! Catherine and Becky are fun and positive to work with and always so supportive when I throw a new idea their way!
SCT is celebrating by doing some really fun stuff on the blog, of course! Have you seen what they're giving away!?! Here's a hint: it starts with an 'iPod' and ends with a 'touch' :)
Today, welcome to the Blog Hop!! If you've followed me here from Lisa's blog, hello!
The next stop on the hop is Emily's blog! Have fun and don't forget to check back on the SCT Blog for a birthday celebration that's going to last all week long!
And here's something really fun:
Want to win your very own copy of Cardmaps??
Leave a comment right here and I will draw one lucky winner on Friday - good luck!
Again, happy birthday Scrapbook and Cards Today! Have a great week, everyone!
you don't have to ask me twice if I want to win this book...YES!! great post today, & H.B. to SCT

Your card is very pretty. I also went and read about your Lincoln. I wish people were like dogs, unconditional love and they do not judge. He is adorable, so much personality.
