Look what came in the mail today....Creative Scrapbooker magazine published my Bible cover. I always hoped to have a card published, but I was excited to be asked to submit and then have the cover chosen.
Well finally I can get back to my computer. I tried to comment earlier on my ohone but kept losing signal and started over about three times. Finally gave up until we hit a stopping place in our travels tonight.
Anyway, I was excited to see (thanks to Sharon) that I had won something. And when I saw that it was Simon Says Stamp I was even more excited. I have had a wish list going on their site for quite a while and I can't wait to pull the trigger and order some cool new stuff - and now I can order even more.
Thanks to everyone who has commented on my card and offered congrats!

Oh yes, Gail I forgot to say super congrats on your publication! Your bible cover is so gorgeous. I love nature elements in cards and the tones in your cover are fantastic!

LOL, I think we'd need more than three weeks to get around the US and see even a fraction of my online friends. I consider myself fortunate to have met so many SCSers passing through Dublin.
Thank you all for the notification and super sweet comments on my Fallidays card about the prize. I will have to go back and see the other winners I had not seen this thread until yesterday. It has been super busy for me and I have not been feeling well for a few weeks. Headed to the doctor tomorrow hopefully they can get me some help and answers. I will check back to the other winners here soon and leave some love.
My husband and I would love to pop over for a visit and then you could really hug a mod ;-). It's been at least six years since we were in Greece, even longer since we were in Crete. Our last two visits were to Corfu and to Astros in the Peloponnese.
Well, my invitation still stands, even if you decide to take a LOOOOONG trip to the US first. In 2015 passed through Dublin on my way to Roundstone on the West coast, where I spent a week with my Dutch folk music loving friends. We used to meet up a few times per month (well, they still do), making music and singing primarily Irish and Scottisch folk songs. The core members try to spend a week together every two years. In 2013 we went to Scotland, two years ago we went to Ireland and this year the others decided to pay me a visit here in Greece. They were staying in the 2 airbnb villas next door, which was awesome.

Congratulations on the publication, Gail.
I am sure sorry that we couldn’t meet up while we were there! We tried, though.

Congratulations on the publication, Gail.
It was definitely the highlight of our trip to meet you and even cooler that our husbands hit it off too!

I was looking online for a tutorial for waterfall cards, because I was having huge trouble with one in a magazine. I guess we must have had reasonable broadband by then because I doubt if it would have been very practical with the old dial-up! It's amazing how you get used to technology and can't remember being without it. I still remember the first graphics package I got came on a CD and our computer at the time didn't even have a CD drive; my brother, doing a computer degree at the time, had to put it on his PC and rig a cable to transfer it all over to ours.
I wish we did have unlimited time and money to come and travel and visit! DH has some motorbike association contacts too :mrgreen:.

Congratulations, Gail! I LOVE Creative Scrapbooker magazine! I just bought the Winter issue yesterday but only got a couple pages into it. Now, I can have even more anticipation as I read to see something from someone I "know"!
Gail, I am loving the bible journal cover- Congrats!!!
!!! I have only done one page in my journal- I do not want to color in a bible. I found 2 paperback bibles at a convent near us that just closed, they had LOTS of them, so for $1.00 I thought I could just tear out the scripture I wanted to use on a page and that was not write in my bible.
Sabrina- maybe one day we will meet! I plan to visit Gory, Wexford in the next couple of years- to visit Finn/Doran relatives : )
