It's a New Month Already!

Why does time go by so fast?  I feel like it's still January, like it's still the start of this brand new year.  Only this isn't a brand new year anymore...we are five months in...FIVE!  That's almost half way through.  Goodness.

Well being that it is the start of a new month, that means that the latest issue of Ginger Scraps Street Magazine is published and online!  My article for this month is about pets and how special they are to us.  I wrote this article two months ago not knowing it would be published this month, so it is kind of weird that it was published this week because I just lost a pet that was very near and dear to me yesterday.  She was such a good girl, so sweet and had the biggest heart.  I will miss her so very much.  If you have a spare minute, take a look at the article...it's filled with some layouts of some cuties.  And speaking of cuties, here is a layout I did of my niece that is showcased on page 25...

I happen to really like this one :)

Well as time flies by I seem to fall further and further behind in my work, my crafts, and just life stuff in general.  So I am going to skidaddle and try to tackle a few things on this lengthy To-Do list of mine...good times.

E-zine Eye Candy

Holly over at Decor8 posted this list of GORGEOUS design-related e-zines...I'm in heaven...SUCH eye candy!

I have only just recently started perusing e-zines...they are all the rage in the blogosphere these days.  I find them to be totally inspirational and beautiful and just a completely new way to explore content on the web.  However, I discovered that I totally read them differently from how I read a normal glossy mag.  I tend to just skim through them super fast...I think I get super over-stimulated by all the ideas and gorgeousness that I zip through them to the end just to see what is in the e-zine, what I want to read and pay attention to, and what I can let float away out of my consciousness, just to so I feel less overwhelmed.  Then I go back and read the parts I want to read.  Sometimes the amount of amazingness on the web is overwhelming don't you think??

Anyways, back to the list...I LOVE Utterly Engaged and Sweet Paul...some readers mentioned another wedding e-zine I had never heard of that is also so very charming...Nonpareil Mag...ahhhh *love at first sight*

I read a few crafty online mags as well...Carina Garder's e-zine and of course Ginger Scraps Street Magazine, since I am a writer for it after all ;)  And speaking of, the latest edition is online and it's adorable!  My article is on page 23 and I have two layouts in the mag this month as well...page 26, page 30...

Here is one of them...

 

Have a very happy weekend!  Perhaps grab a cool drink and read a few online glossies...xo.

Ginger Scappings!

It's the first of the month which means the latest issue of Ginger Scraps Street magazine is online and ready for you to admire!  

My article is on page 4 and it is three pages long!  

Phew!  

I was ambitious this month. 

 I  also have a few layouts published this month...one is in my own article on page 5, and then one is on page 28...I thought I had one more but I could be mixing it up with next month.  We work like 2 months in advance so I get all mixed up.  I like the article I wrote for this month...and I love the layouts I chose to spotlight...the designers specialize in minimalist design and their work is beautiful!

Take a peek!

P.S.  Each month there is a freebie kit in the magazine so you should totally subscribe ;)
