I love your layout and your many techniques.

I have never felt my scrapbooking skills were worthy of publishing, and never thought I'd have anything to share on a blog. I also have been crazy about Doodlebug since they started, so when they announced try-outs for DT's earlier this year, I went for it. My submissions were (I thought) just as good as the examples they advertise, but deep down, as much as I wanted it, I feared the heartbreak that eventually came when I was not selected. It was hard, but I noticed all the DTs they selected were established scrapbookers, with lots of blog followers, and most are DTs for other companies. That was one reason I started my blog. I won't be trying out for any other companies, but never say never, right?!? For what it's worth, I love your work, this is a gorgeous layout (and so is your daughter!), and you are a beautiful, artistic person. I always remember ... "If it's meant to be, then it shall be!" :)Tanya Hamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02709395824407749371noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6878298874452609757.post-2891663708627350122011-11-22T08:05:04.439-07:002011-11-22T08:05:04.439-07:00Can I tell you how much I love that hambly banner ...Can I tell you how much I love that hambly banner using the transparencies!

I went for the last American Crafts DT call and absolutely loved everything I made for it...had a good feelingabout it, and really wanted it. I was very disappointed when my name wasn't on the list. After that BasicGrey had a DT call...and I almost didn't go for it because of my last experience. But I did, and they picked me! So hang in there! As with submissions for mags, you just got to keep trying. Sometimes they pick you up and lots of times they don't. Just remember not to take it personally, there are always SO many talented designers going for these spots.Pamelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01856904316738987114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6878298874452609757.post-64794932618706131532011-11-21T07:22:57.657-07:002011-11-21T07:22:57.657-07:00It is definitely their loss!It is definitely their loss!jamie longhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11717168155439896903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6878298874452609757.post-39231623011227394502011-11-21T07:04:44.818-07:002011-11-21T07:04:44.818-07:00Sorry you didn't make the design team, but I l...Sorry you didn't make the design team, but I love your attitude about it.
