Yippee! I now have 100 blog followers!

Hurray!  I now have 100 blog followers!  Time  for another give a way perhaps?! ;)

I'm so excited to share my news with you all!  I have been trying to keep quiet about it for months until I knew for sure it was going to actually happen.  Now that I am fairly certain it will, I can finally spill the beans!  Last December I was contacted by an editor of Better Homes and Gardens!  They asked if I would like to be a featured artist in their upcoming holiday craft issue that will be due out this fall.  Can you believe it?!!!  I, of course, said "YES!". :)   I was asked to feature one of my little snowgirls.  I am so super excited for this opportunity and I can't wait for the issue to come out so I can buy a slew of copies to hand out to friends and family, lol!  This is a major first for me and I am so happy to finally be able to share the news with all of you.  Here is a pic of some of the snowmen I make.:)  I know it's pretty early to be thinking of winter so soon but I guess thats how it works in the magazine world!
