Blog Party

If you're looking for the blog party ......then you have arrived at the right place!

WELCOME!!!! All of you new to the cutting world! We want to celebrate with you as proud owners of the most exciting tools in scrapbooking!!!!! So did you get a Klic-N-Kut, Pazzles, Scrapsavvy, Silhouette, Wishblade or a CraftRobo? I know many of you received yours for Christmas..... since Michelle was swamped with shipping orders....... YOU must be on top of the world!!!

And a big Welcome... kiss and big hugs to all of my daily readers and members of my group! You guys are the back bone of my creativity....you keep me going with new ideas, encouragement and well...... gosh I'm going to get all teary eyed all your sweet sweet emails!!!!!

How I got on as an Exclusive Designer for Paperthreads (if your interested then read on.....)
It's been a wonderful year for me....if some of you don't know....last year I had quit my business of supplying stores with my kits...which where doing very well until our family was in an automobile accident.... No one was seriously injured but it set us back...I would sit up late at night wondering what to do next...I didn't want to get on the highway delivering to stores any longer..... I prayed and clicked...clicking away at designs that's about all I could do....being so numb.... then in March I happened to log onto my favorite web site...You know what I'm talking about...


Paperthreads!!!!
It seemed to be the place to hang out...I was looking for another swap to participate in and I clicked in an area that I had never gone before....There was an announcement....they (Michelle) was looking for new designers and just a week ago I was thinking wouldn't it be idea if some how I could get on as a designer? BUT there was only 24 hours left till the deadline....and I had to create 5 new files....so I set to work....Pushing everything aside...for the next 24 hours my family of 9 thought I lost my mind!!! Get your own meals, clean your own laundry ...I've got to get this done.....

Within 24 hours I had five files ready to go...it was 20 minutes to midnight....20 minutes till the deadline!!!!!! so I logged on and clicked the email link to submit my files....then suddenly I realized I needed to tweak just one more file....I closed out the Paperthreads web page and opened the file....within 15 minutes I had it ready to go...so I logged on to Paperthreads....I went directly to the post for submitting and it was gone!!!!!

I then realized that the time zones must be different and I just lost out on submitting my files!!!!!!I sat in front of my computer with my head hidden in my hands....I couldn't believe that I allowed this to happen that it was just a matter of time that I neglected to look into and just blew a dream.....

I sat there shaking my head giving up I began to shut down all the programs that were open....WAIT what's this....could it be????? I had clicked on the email link and it was sitting there on my task bar.....A chance an unbelievable chance!!!

I proceeded to fill out the email apologizing for the late arrival and explained that even though the post was gone I still wanted to give it a chance since I still had the email for submitting......then I sent off the five files.....
with in a couple of days I received an email do you have pictures of these files cut out...well I went to work on them and finally got my answer that I was chosen along with the other designers and I have to say it has been such a blessing!

We have much to CELEBRATE!!!!
