Pub Calls Manufacturer Challenge: Maya Road

Caroline (Maya Road co-owner) had her baby boy over the weekend!!! And Deb is waiting her turn (due in about 5 weeks). So, since it's a Maya Road baby boom spring, let's show them some GREAT examples of their products in use! This is another manufacturer who hasn't done a DT search, but hand picks them! Again, this is NOT a contest! This is an opportunity for your work to be seen.

Manufacturer: Maya Road
Begins 5/30/06
E-mail your images by 6/12/06
Maya Road Album will be available to view 6/13/06
Scrapbook Retailer List (in case you need to locate a specific product)Online Retailer List

So, here's the "Challenge Rules":
1) Create a layout, card or project showcasing any of the Maya Road "goodies" (Ribbons, ribbon charms, chipboard pieces, chipboard books, Coffee Break or Lunch Break boxes, etc.).
2) E-mail a scan or digital photo of your creation to PubCalls@gmail.com. You can send your file as large as 300kb. I'll resize them so that all projects are the same size on viewing.
3) Please include a supply list! The featured manufacturer will likely not be the only ones checking your work!!!
4) Many magazine editors also check the Pub Calls Blog. This is a fact! If you are contacted for a layout (by anyone, including manufacturers, magazines or any other entity) that is in an album as part of this feature, please let us know immediately at pubcalls@gmail.com so that we can remove your layout! (Oh, and so we can congratulate you, also!)
5) The Pub Calls Album will be made public on June 13 (giving 2 weeks for this one in case you need to order or puchase products) with a separate album for Maya Road. This way, they can check out the submissions in an organized manner rather than checking each day (We don't want them to miss ANY of the projects!)
6) We will add a catagory on the side bar for the Albums to be a reference point for manufacturers, magazines or any other company looking for designers. You may submit more than one project/layout/card for the album. Please do not send more than 3, though. We don't want to run out of space for uploading!
7) Your layouts/cards/projects may be posted in any of your favorite galleries or submitted to any magazines, calls, contests or challenges. The Pub Calls Blog does not retain any rights to your works of art!

When you e-mail your image, please include:
First Name, Last Initial and Screen Name (if you have one)
Gallery Link (if you have one)
e-mail address (This will not be posted)
Supplies Used
Anything special you want pointed out on your project.

Please post any questions you might have in the comments, or e-mail them and I'll answer ASAP. Maya Road has already been e-mailed, so they know that in a couple of week they can view anything submitted!

I'll do a little research and post some stores that have a nice variety of Maya Road products. :) Here's a GREAT chance to use some of your papers in your stash together with some awesome ribbons and embellishments! If you haven't used their chipboards...TRY THEM!!! Really great quality and designs!

Ready, Set, GO!!!!

ETA: Here are a few online stores with a nice variety of Maya Road:
