Shhhh!! Don't tell anyone......okay, tell everyone!! I made DT at Snobby Walrus!! I am sooo freaking excited about this!!! And very honored to be a part of such a great site & team!! So what is Snobby Walrus, you ask? I'll tell you....they are an amazing online store & monthly kit club. They are new, but you wouldn't believe the number of followers they already have. I still cannot believe this!!
Actually, I can't believe that I didn't let this out earlier!!! Yep, I knew a week ago. Here's the scoop....I've been checking out Scrapbook Calls & Contests, just to see what was out there, I do this periodically. I wavered back and forth about attempting to get on another Design Team, I'm already on the Posh team; and let's face it, one DT spot can be a lot of work!!!
Anyways, I checked out Snobby Walrus, and totally fell in love with the products that they carry in their store. That's when I decided that I would give it a go. I sent in my app, along with 3 LOs, and waited patiently. I never really thought that it would happen. About 2 weeks later, I finally caved in to my 'need' for more scrappy goods, and ordered some stuff from them.
Well, about a week ago, I got this email from Andrew (owner of SW), advising me that some of the stuff that I ordered, was going to be in the May kit, and since I was going to be receiving the kit, did I still want to order those same items? He says, "you'll be receiving this kit because, you have been chosen to be one of our new DTs"!!! I nearly fell off my chair!!! Not only because of the news, but also because I almost deleted his email since I had NO clue as to who he was!!!! LOL
SOoooo, I've been trying very hard to not tell, I think I did pretty good!! Now, I just have to re-write my 'resume'...only, I have to do it from the third-person point of view!!! This will def be interesting!! I am not a fan of 'essays', and even worse when it's about myself!!! But, I'm still excited!!!
I did get the kit, along with a few things that I ordered, and I thought that I would give you a sneak peek:
This kit is just gorgeous!!! There's def something in there for everyone!!! Go check it out for yourself. You won't be disappointed.
I gotta tell you, I've already done 3 LOs, and there's still so much left in the kit, that I can probably do another 4 to 5 more!!! How awesome is that!!! Will probably use some stuff to make DDs recipe album!! I actually decided that I would make 2 albums for her! One for chocolate, and the other for everything else!!! She'll love it...she's def a chocolate fiend!! I finally broke down and bought a mini album for the 'choco' one. I wouldn't want to overload her with recipes!! I will probably do the 'vintage' book cover for the other one! Gotta get a binder mechanism first.
Sooo that's my very exciting news!!! Okay, it is for me!!! Go check out Snobby Walrus, and while you're at it, check out some of the other DT's blogs:

Love ya,
