I still cannot believe this: http://americancrafts.typepad.com/studio/2008/08/announcing-our-newest-accdt-members.html
I made the American Crafts Design Team!!!
This is a scrapbooking dream come true for me, I love this company, everything they do, the bold printed paper, the fun embellishments, the geniusly simple albums, all of it (oh and now they make cardstock!!). With two teenage girls to scrapbook, the American Crafts product is ideal!
I cannot believe my name is up there alongside those other names, some serious creative talent! I feel so very lucky!
These are the layouts I sent in with my application:
gone for publishing!

Congratulations, Kathy: WTG! You do Canadian scrapbookers proud! =) Looking at the 2 lay-outs you submitted with you application, I'm struck by how your style reminds me of 2 ladies who own a lss here and also love American Crafts products (their store is I think the only one in town that carries a fairly extensive selection of AC products). Their style is also very clean, crisp, and linear (and wonderful in every way! :) ). (The only difference I can think of at this moment is that they often hand-write their journalling, while on your lay-outs it is computer printed.) I can't help but wonder if the AC style/look of products especially appeal to this style of scrapper, too? :)
