Always a bridesmaid...
12 April 2010
I thought I'd share my cover version for the latest issue of Scrapbook & Cards Today. It's a wonderful Canadian magazine, very professionally done, and (gasp!) free of charge. If you haven't seen it in hard copy, you can download it on the above link- you won't be disappointed. I was pleasantly surprised to get an email from Crystal back in December, asking me to try out for the cover. I did several cover attempts during my years at Simple Scrapbooks, and alas, none of them made it to that coveted spot on the magazine. So, I wasn't too surprised when this one didn't make it either, lol... but it was an honour to be asked. In retrospect, it was probably a little TOO simple, but it's my style, and I was happy with it!
Hope you're having a gorgeous Monday!~

Well, the one they chose better be a doozy because your page is simply perfect :)
This is so cute Melanie. The bright colors, the layout...everything. I love it. I could really get into this whole scrapbooking thing..... if only there were about 15 more hours in the day, huh?

C'est magnifique, mille bravo
Definitely not too simple!!! We will never compromise our style for a cover!! It's very lovely. :)
too simple...NEVER ;)
Isn't 'too simple' an oxymoron?? I think your take on it is gorgeous, and you're right, it is a fab magazine!
Too simple, there isn't such a thing. It is perfect. And isn't there a lot of us simple scrappers out there who would pick up the mag because of that cover?
I love your version of the cover LO, Mel. Your work is always lovely and inspiring... don't ever change, okay? :)
It's beautiful!
absolutely perfect in every way - great to see a layout from you ... now I need to get stuck into things!
Just love your take on this. It's too bad that they didn't chose yours 'cause it looks awesome.
