NOW I CAN SHOUT ABOUT IT!!

Sorry for the all CAPS title, but I just couldn't contain myself any more!!! I've had the most EXCELLENT secret for the past several weeks. Now that it's official, I can FINALLY share it with all of you!!!

I have officially jumped into the Dirt Pile!!! Yesterday, I was unveiled, along with my good friend, Vicki Dutcher, as one of the newest members of the Splitcoast Dirty Dozen!!!! HOLYCOWOHMYGOSHICAN'TBELIEVEIT!!! Big deep breath ... in/out ... I am soooo very honored and excited to have been asked to participate in such a wonderful group of creative people. I still am not quite believing it myself!!! In any event, I am totally STOKED!!!

And this little birdie anniversary card is one of the last ones I made for VSN (I know, I know ... will I EVER get to the end of these???? Only one more, I PROMISE!!)! In any event, I'm happy that I am finally able to share my news with all of you, as you will probably be more excited about it than the men in my house ... who don't have absolutely ANY clue how incredibly COOL this makes me!!! Bwahahahaha!!! Seriously, though ... I feel sooo blessed to have been asked to participate in something so amazing!!! The next six months are going to be a wild ride, that's for sure!!!

Have an absolutely FABULOUS day!!
