My LO was chosen!

[proverbswoman]

Ok, gals, I have to brag for just a second! I did a LO a few weeks ago for Bethany's wordart challenge, and I got a lot of positive feedback. Kami picked it for the praise game, and Liz hinted to me about submitting it to Bella Scraps Magazine for their father's day issue. Well, I just found out today that the LO was chosen! Yay! :hyper: (Before I forget to mention it, the LO was "A Father and His Sons".)

I was so excited to hear this, because this is the first time I've ever been published. And it was all due to the marvelous people here at the Orchard. I've never thought my LO's were good enough to be published, I just enjoy making them for myself. But b/c of all your support, I actually jumped out there and sent something in for publication. And it happened!!! So, I just want to send a big :thankyou: to everyone here! This is such an awesome place to be, and the amazing things going on here (record-breaking entries for SYTYCD, 4000 members in 6 weeks, breaking the site a couple of times -- sorry Mel) are proof that the owners of the Orchard have really started something wonderful. This is the first forum I've ever found where the owners actually hang out in here with you and comment in the gallery, and everyone involved is so nice and helpful and generous with the love. In such a short time we've become one big family, and that is so cool.

So thanks again! :madeday:

[proverbswoman]

Well, I had to take the LO out of the gallery, and in it's place is an out for publication notice. However, if you look in the Praise Game page 1, Kami has a screenshot of it in one of her posts.

[KayJay]

Not anymore - layout is gone in the praise game, too.

[proverbswoman]

I wondered if it would change that one, too. Sorry!
