I'm in a book!



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, if you love all things paper - from cards to journals, recipe cards, stationery, etc., you will probably LOVE this book. Not only does it cover some of the most amazing paper artists out there, it also gives a brief overview of each technique, as long as a great list of sources and where you can find each artist online.

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.

    1. Yes! 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! :)

    1. Thank 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.
