Sunday 1 August 2010

And so we move on dear Interweb. *cue all my normal noises about how fast the year is going and how quickly the summer is moving and blah blah*
Turns out that I have a new job for this month, and for a month. Love that long term temporary thing...a commitment without commitment. Although the people involved need committing. And you, dear interweb, will never hear the end of it. If any of you are moved to make a blue tack model of me, please be advised to make it with a V E R Y big head. You will want to stick a pin in it daily, to see if it is deflatable. I doubt it will work. See, for the WHOLE of August, I'm the GD at DCM. Do you know what that is exactly? Guest Designer at Daring Cardmakers. You know, they run a cardmaking challenge weekly from a Friday and post a Design Team's samples as inspiration. My card will be included on that inspiration post. I know I know, but it's rude to withdraw an invitation after it's been accepted, huh. Ask that bloke from the BNP - his invitation to the Palace Garden Party was withdrawn - a tad humiliating (I hope)! Anyway, so there it is...less talk and more walk from me then this month. Now, where did I put my modesty and my mojo?

Well done, Julia. So what title do I call you on WOYWW now then??

donnalouiserodgers said...

ooh well done - a weekly challenge ... and there will probably not be enough blu tack in the shops.... you go a'head' and brag - invitations usually only come after much hard work and effort and of course - sack loads of creativity and beautiful artwork....
