Wow! What a Wonderful Surprise!






A few weeks ago ...a SCS friend, Heidi, invited me to join a Paper Craft Planet Group... KL Stampin n Scrappin Girls..and suggested that I enter one of my cards in a challenge there...

I have to say..PCP intimidates me..for some odd reason I know my way in and out of SCS....and I zip from place to place on SCS without a problem....but I just cannot find my way around PCP at all..I have a hard time navigating that site....and...IF I DO find something I was looking for..chances are...I won't know how to find my way back to it...I have no sense of direction on PCP...

I did join the group tho..and i DID need some guidance from Heidi with uploading my photo of the White on White Flower Pot to the correct challenge folder.... (suffice it to say..she is a kind and patient person.)

Well....the cards in the challenge were ALL absolutely wonderful...the kind that "knock your socks off"....I found them to be inspiring..as well as beautiful...and I also liked the group itself..nice chatter..friendly atmosphere....

and so I've been visiting there often..and have begun to find my way around PCP..

This morning..I found out that my White on White Flower Pot card is the winner of the April Challenge that Heidi was hosting there...the prize.......a Magnolia Stamp (YAY!!) and a Cuttlebug Folder (YAY!!).....were offered by Kelly of KL Stampin n Scrappin Store

So off I went to their website...where I had coincidentally filled a shopping cart last night (while I was up all night because I couldn't sleep).....filling a cart wasn't difficult with the stamps they have in stock and some wonderful adorable pro-order items....everything that Kelly offers at her web store is fantastic!..so if you haven't been there yet...go HERE..to see what she has to offer!

Thank you Kelly for choosing my card as the winner this month for a fun challenge...its always fun winning and receiving goodies...but for me..the true elation comes in knowing that something that I have created is loved and appreciated by others....

Thank you Heidi for inviting me to the group and the challenge...and Kelly for acknowledging my creativity!
