A few months ago, I needed to send some things in to The Stamper's Sampler for publication and I decided to decorate the priority mail box. Much to my surprise, my decorated box was featured in the current issue in the Mail Call section of the magazine. How fun! The goodies I sent in for publication will be featured in an upcoming issue -- more on that LATER! *grin*
I don't submit for publication very often, but it is very exciting to see something I made in a national magazine. Working with the folks at Stampington & Co is enjoyable -- and I appreciate being featured in their magazines.
Look for the February/March 2010 issue of The Stamper's Sampler on shelves now.
Who wouldn't love to get a box like that? Heck there wouldn't have to be anything in it either!

You're so cute and the only person I know who's container excites the receiver as much as what's inside! I love your box, your chicks are some of my favorites! Congrats on being published, so happy for you!

I SAW that it in the magazine and thought "Hey I KNOW those chickens!" If THAT box didn't grab the editors' attention, I don't know what would have! You SHOULD submit for publishing, you are such an inspiration what with illustrating the images for stamps and then featuring them in the cutest cards ever! I sometimes wonder why I don't see cards by you and some of my other faves in magazines more often! Can't wait to see what's coming soon!
