Just got my advanced copy of the Winter 2015 issue of Stampers'Sampler and HAPPY DAYS!!!---Four of the cards I submitted were published. The cards were all designed for the Dress Template Challenge. It takes a bit of persistence and quite a few submissions to actually get designs that the editors find worthy of appearing on their pages. It's very exciting and reaffirming to see my work published in a national magazine.
I decided to think outside the box with this Steampunk design. I redisned the bodice of the dress to reflect Dorothy's original design and added a gear buckle.
