Today I am joining in with hundreds of other paper crafters to give a huge and loving sendoff to all the dedicated people who brought us Paper Craft & Scrapbooking Magazine, which is sadly closing its doors. It's the end of an era. An era that brought the crafting world untold inspiration and pleasure. Thank you to everyone involved!
My tribute card:
I watercolored the colors behind the negative flourish die cut with Gelatos. The sediment is by SU.
I was never brave enough to submit a card for publication, so I have no stories to tell of the thrill of victory nor the agony of defeat, but I sure loved seeing the cards that were published! I still pinch myself that thanks to blogging I'm now friends with so many card artists who have graced the pages of this publication!
I'm not sure that you dear hearts at PC&S will ever really know the impact you had on the creative lives of those of us who devoured the magazine cover-to-cover issue-after-issue. But from all your readers there was always gratitude: seldom spoken, always felt!
Now, today, I'm thinking of each of you as you embark on this new chapter in your lives. While change is daunting and scary, it can also be exciting and it can bring you more happiness than you ever imagined was possible. I wish that for you, and more!

While change is daunting and scary, it can also be exciting and it can bring you more happiness than you ever imagined was possible. I wish that for you, and more!- You should have arrived from Susie Stamp A Lot (Susan Liles).
- Your next stop is Frozen Stamper (Donna Hitz).
- To go all the way back to the beginning, go to Jennifer McGuire Ink.
- The entire Inlinkz list can be found at Taheerah's Fill Your Paper With The Breathings Of Your {Heart}. Heartfelt thanks also go to Taheerah for all her hard work putting this mahoosive hop together!

I'm entering my card in:
- Addicted to Stamps and More, where the theme is "CAS."
- Just Us Girls Wild Card, which means "Anything Goes."
- Shopping Our Stash, where the theme is "Free is Good!" My paper came from BABE Anita and the flourish die cut belonged to an unknown BABE. I ran off a couple of die cuts while at the Lake House.

I'm keeping this short as it's a HUGE hop. I hope you enjoyed your stop here. Please help yourself to a beverage and a chocolate kiss and then you must get those bunny feet in gear and continue hopping!!

Enjoy your day! No, seriously, enjoy. LITS!*
As always, thank you for coming by to visit the Playhouse and special thanks to you if you take the time to leave a comment and/or join as a follower! Please let me know you came by, so I can be sure and return the flavor!
