Catching up and Holiday Greetings: Beginner project

Hello all!! It's been a while, it's been too long! But things have been nuts around here!!! Just returned from Phoenix AZ for the Spellbinders Design Team Retreat! Wow!! What an amazing time!! I will share lots of photos with you all... as soon as they are off my camera and edited! :)
But for now, I'll give you an update on what's happening in my creative world....

*So, as you know I'm a finalist in the Tombow Design team search! Project is due HERE on my blog by Friday! Stay tuned! New team members announced by Dec 4th! Wish me luck! ;)

*Zva Creative, My term with them is finished. I greatly enjoyed working with the gorgeous bling and flowers and had a great year!

*Imagine Crafts/Tsukineko: So my term with them is also coming to an end. But I am HAPPY to say that I will be continuing on for another year! YAY!! love me some inky goodness!!

*DCWV: Did you had the news???? Huh? Yes! I have been asked to join the DCWV Design team for the next 6 months!! SUPER excited to dig into those goodies! They have some fabulous stuff out right now and I can't wait to start playing! So be on the lookout for THOSE projects, starting in December!!

And of course... Spellbinders.. they are keeping me around for another year!

i am SO blessed!!! "WOW!! HOW are you going to do it all??" I am hearing... This is my job... I adore what I do... My family will always come first, but they support me in what I do... and THAT makes it all doable. Without that, I'm nothing...

So to share with you a project while I am here today... I want to show you a project that I did for Spellbinders. The assignment is to use ONE die in three projects... Beginner, Intermediate, and Advanced.
Today i will share the beginner project, Tomorrow the Intermediate, and lastly, the Advanced. :)
