So, I've managed to keep a secret for over a year. I did elude to being included in a book, but I didn't say which one! I am beyond thrilled to be featured in I Heart Stationery by Charlotte Rivers - also known in the online world as Lottie Loves.
I got a sneak peek of the book on Charlotte's blog a couple of weeks ago - I believe the book was released earlier in Europe and Asia, and was released in the U.S. on February 21st. I just got my copy in the mail today.
It was so much fun to flip through the pages. I will sit down tonight to really read all about the techniques and artists - I'm in the Paper Cutting section. It was also so neat to see some of my favorite paper artists ever in the book, such as 1Canoe2, Cabin + Cub, and A Quick Study (who you may remember from this blog as a time management guru!).
So that's my exciting news that I've been saving up for over a year! I can never thank Charlotte enough for this awesome opportunity.
Yippee! Congrats! Being in a book is then end-all thrill. So nice and permanent. It's definitely hard to keep those secrets; I have a book secret under my belt too. Eeps!
ReplyDeleteYes! I just love the fact that there is now a permanent record of what I've been working on all of this time. I can't wait to find out what your book secret is, too! :)
DeleteThat's amazing!! I can't believe you could keep that to yourself for so long, I think I'd be shouting from the roof tops! You should be very proud of yourself =) x
ReplyDeleteThank you! I think part of why I had to keep it a secret was the fear that I'd be cut from the book at the last minute - I just couldn't tell anyone the details until I saw it for myself.
DeleteCongratulations!! That is so exciting! Well done Ashley! :)
