at long last! (Rebecca Sower)

at long last!

So wow, you are the most patient people in the world. Have to be. That's why I love you, my dear readers, so much...you have all those qualities I don't (wink).

But the wait is over!

Introducing Postmark LA. What began as a group of creatives chatting about doing a 'zine that eventually turned into a 69-page full-color book. Every page is so full and brimming with photos and ideas and patterns and well, lovely lovely stuff. I'm just so proud of this new baby of ours. Ours being none other than Charlotte Lyons, Teresa McFayden, Pam Garrison, Carolyn Peeler, Amy Hanna and myself.

Oh, I hope you like it! I really do. We've worked long and hard and diligently, treating each page with so much attention and care...thinking of you all the while.

Well, go ahead, order your copy and let us know what you think...

(Hint #1: if you get this book you'll get to see a photo of me on my wedding day with poofy hair and a really handsome dude)

And there's more--I am going to give something away. What better way to celebrate the birth of a new book than to give away one of my projects from the book. Post one comment here and you could be the new owner of this little quote piece that I made for a 'quotes' feature in Postmark. (Hint #2: if you stop by my Etsy shoppe you can buy a whole big pack of quotes and some other cool supplies like the ones I featured in the book.)

(and Hint #3...to continue to celebrate the new book, I will be hosting more giveaways here over the next couple of weeks...check back often!)

(and, very important Hint #4!, check out the other artists' blogs today and for the next few days...we're all celebrating with giveaways and goodies for you!)
