................or at least as close as I can ever hope to get to the man himslef !
I don't usually make too much noise when I get work published as it can seem a bit egotistical, but when someone mentioned I was sharing a spread with 'him' I had to go buy the magazine (Crafts Beautiful) and check it out for myself and I am totally tickled pink as sure enough it's all there in their Good Impressions feature............you can tell it don't take a lot to make me do the happy dance.
Now if only I could emulate his stunning inspirational pieces of artwork I would be doing more than a happy dance.
So little things and all that but thought I would share.
Woop woop!! congratulations! Will stop by the newsagents for a gander later on!
ReplyDeleteOh wow Brenda. You are sooooo talented and should be published all the time. So happy for you and now I can also say I know someone famous!. As I said yesterday leaving a comment on your card that has been published, its one of my favourite designs of yours as I can really relate to the little farm scene. You must enjoy lapping up the honour.
ReplyDeleteHappy Valentines Day

And so you should Brenda this is awesome! I'm your newest follower too. Your work is amazing, and I love looking at your amazing creations. Michelle x
ReplyDeleteHi Brenda - Congratulations! Pleased you're so pleased but please know you are extremely inspirational yourself! & for me personally, I much prefer your cards. The Great Man is just a little too grungey for my taste - but he does have some fab ideas.
ReplyDeleteLike others have said before me - your cards are fantastic & so varied; I love checking out your blog & seeing what you've come up with each time.
Keep up the marvellous work!
all the best, Liz M x
