Fate is a funny thing…on September 12, I was contacted by Etsy that People Style Watch was considering a Flair Designery holiday greeting card for inclusion in their 2012 Holiday issue. So many emotions ran through me all at once; excitement, joy, disbelief and fear. I hurriedly sent all of my samples to People Style Watch in New York, along with many a thank you notes and crossed my fingers. I was not allowed to discuss this, as their was a possibility that the card would not make it to the printed version of the magazine AND I had to wait until the issue was live. However, September 12 had special meaning as it is my parents wedding anniversary and my mom said it was a “good sign” and that the card simply would make it in.
The wednesday before thanksgiving, I ran to Target fingers crossed that it made the issue. My hands were shaking as I found ONE lone copy on the stand and began to flip through. Finally I made it to page 224 and their it was…right next to the Kate Spade holiday card! I was so excited to tell someone that I told a random woman standing next to me. I probably looked like a complete crazy, but I had to tell someone!!!
