So, what’s fashionable this season? I know you’ve been wondering…
Gingham is still going strong! Pick up some pink, red
or black
gingham ribbon to accent your next card!
And last but not least – yes – that’s right – Rejection is one of this season’s hottest looks!
There were 925 submissions for this call – and only 80 spots!!!
WOOOO HOOOO!
This first card is one of my faves! I love the red and green together – without looking Christmassy at all!
The heart-shaped embellishment is made from scraps of canvas layered together – SUPER EASY!
Here’s another that you won’t be seeing on the pages of Paper Crafts – I love the simplicity of it!
Now it’s your turn to share your beautiful rejects!
This is such a fun post to read! And your rejects are beautiful. 🙂

Hey Jenn! Thanks for visiting my blog! This is actually my first time being published so I am FAR from an expert about how to go about being published. There is a great blog post by Latisha Yoast – a seasoned crafter: http://crafteebee.blogspot.com/2011/03/rejection-card-style-balance-submitting.html
She offers great advice about submitting to magazines for publication.
Hope this helps!
P.S. The heart embellishment is made from fabrics that I picked up at Joanns. You can use whatever fabric you like though! Just get creative and have fun!
Nice cards Amber! Congrats on your acceptance. I also got my first acceptance today for one of my cards!! I love happy news:)
love them both! I love your clean style!! 🙂
