Deadlines- do you like them or hate them? I may have a leeetle bit of the procrastinator in me, so deadlines are actually helpful to me. Take yesterday for instance. The deadline for submitting to Paper Crafts Holiday Cards and More was midnight last night. Since I was gone to Flagstaff for the weekend (see more about that HERE), I was pretty pressed for time to finish (ahem, and start) several of the projects I had in mind for submitting.
I did finish seven projects, so I'm happy about that. I'll cross my fingers for a 50% return and hope that they will like at least three or four of them. And, yes, the Go-to Gals submit along with everyone else and follow all the same rules. Wish me luck.
In the meantime, I did have fun looking at all the super cute cards you girls made from Sketches week. I had almost thirty entries, which is FANTASTIC. So, who's the winner of the Tote Full O' Goodies?
According to the handy dandy random generator...the winner is Angela Fehr!! And, seriously? Angela's card is just so darn cute - you need to check it out right HERE. Thanks for playing Angela - I'll send you an e-mail.
Are you on Facebook? If so and you are not already my friend (click here) OR not already a friend of Paper Crafts magazine (click here), please join us. We have a lot of fun. The Go-to Gals ask and answer a lot of questions and we post photos and such. AND, we are almost at 10,000 friends with the magazine! Wouldn't it be cool to reach that goal this week? Help!
So, lots of cool stuff this week. I'm reviewing a new photo site - stay tuned for that tomorrow. I have a crafty post for Friday planned - for reals.
Later.
Yahoo! It's easy to make a great card when you start with a great sketch, Kim! Thanks for the win!

Congrats to Angela & to you for finishing so many projects with a time crunch! Good luck (although I think it's likely they'll pick up more than 3 or 4!!!) :) I got one in, so crossing my fingers too!

Congrats to Angela and her cute, cute card!
I'm sure that your projects will be accepted and I look forward to seeing them. You've got a zillion great ideas.

I definitely fall under the procrastinator category. If it weren't for deadlines, I have a feeling I'd never finish anything.
Good luck with those submissions, my friend...not that you're going to need luck. Your talent speaks for itself!
