People have been asking me, “How in the heck do you keep up with all of your design teams?!” Well, I’ll let everyone in on my little secret, but make sure not to tell anyone.
Just kidding!
…so the secret is — I use the good ol’ calendar. Google Calendar to be exact. I make sure to add all projects due, blog post write ups, and anything else I need to work on to the calendar. I have reminders to keep me on top of things; otherwise, I’d be a complete mess, lol! To make things even easier, I try to work ahead. ((…and like I mentioned before, I’m a FAST scrapper. As in, I scrap a layout in about 30 minutes or less.))
Anyway, with that in mind, I’ve got more good news to share. I made it onto the Urban Swank design team!!! This was another surprise for sure considering there is so much talent out there.
In case you don’t know about Urban Swank, they distribute Urban Lily products. Super cute stuff, people! …and on top of that, they are teamed up with Helmar Adhesives. I love me some adhesives, but then again, what scrapper doesn’t?!
If you’ve got the time, also please check out the rest of the selected Swanky Gurls! They’re amazingly creative. Check ‘em out, and leave them some love too!
Make sure to check back. I’ve got more to share.
Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!
Hugs,
sarah.

Congrats! congrats! you are a scrapping star! thanks for sharing your calendar secrets but another question – how do you find out about all of these dt searches? I only have so much time to spend on the computer else I would never create anything. Again congrats – I always love your layouts and it’s just amazing how fast you can scrap. BTW, how’s Hilo?

That’s totally awesome Sarah. I use a list to keep up with DT stuff, but I’m wondering if a calendar would work better! Thanks for the idea!
