As many of you may already know, I participated in a design contest back in June where a couple dozen digital artists submitted their designs for consideration by Echo Park Paper Co. I am eternally grateful for all of the people who voted for me in the contest - it’s an embarrassment of riches to have so much support. My heart is full!
The contest wasn’t won on votes, alone, and Echo Park chose designs from another extremely talented designer. Beautiful designs! And while it’s always a little hard to enter a competition and not be the ultimate winner – I don’t even kind of consider it a loss, because I was able to round the entire concept out and turn it into a digital product.
Because my heart belongs to digital, after all. Also, I’m hopeless with paper so I’d probably never have been able to use my own product. And neither would many of you. So it all works out in the end!
Now Available @ The Lilypad
I’m pleased to announce that Scenes From Real Life is now available at The Lilypad as a part of my guest stay there for the month of July. You’ll can save 20% off through Sunday, 7/15/12, and receive my newest template (below) FREE with the purchase of the kit through 7/18/12.
Free With Purchase
I haven’t had much time to sit down and actually scrapbook lately, but I unwound with Photoshop after a hard day yesterday and added the page design to my collection of Flight Plans. Flight Plan No. 18 is also 20% off through the weekend, but you can grab it for FREE when you purchase the kit. Just add both items to your cart and the template will zero out. (As always, if you get a little “click happy” and forget to add it, just contact me and I’ll get you squared away.)
A Little Glimpse Of MY Real (Glamorous) Life

JOURNALING | It’s been happening little by little, really … but it has finally become apparent to me that the days of you worrying about spilling something on yourself are in the distant past. People would have a hard time believing that you’re the same kid that used to change clothes with a speck of dirt, but your new goal seems to be to get as much stuff on your clothes as possible.

It’s a beautiful collection. Truly. And the journaling on your page gives me such hope – my 10yo son has issues with germs/dirt/etc. I would love to see the day where his “goal seems to be to get as much stuff on [his] clothes as possible.”
Peppermint
Well it seems like a weird thing to tell someone to hope for – but N used to go change his shirt if he splashed a little water on it while washing his hands. But some days he walks past me and I have to do a double take because it looks like he was at a Gallagher show. (Did I just show my age? Do people still remember who Gallagher was?)
Dawn Farias
LOL – well, I will still hope, even if weird, for it because that changing a shirt because of splashed water is definitely something my son would do. My poor guy…
And I totally remember Gallagher.

thanks Peppermint, can’t tell you how much I love this set. Been a long stressful week and this is my present to myself for just getting through it in one piece. Wish you all the best.
Peppermint
Hope this week is looking up for you!

Yay! I really love this!
For what it’s worth, your contribution was my favourite out of all the entries.
Peppermint
Thank you, that’s heartwarming to hear
