I have finally cracked All 3!

Wel it finally happened..........
Creative Paper have picked up 2 of my LO's today for issue 75. They want them expressed posted to them. And now I can give up subbing I will have been in all 3. That was my new years resolution at the begging of the year. So I have left it very late....
mmmm Maybe I will keep subbing... I likes the money!! hehehe

Congrats Arby

woohoo to you

Woohoo to you girl...great work hon....lol about the money

There was never a doubt in my mind that you'd make it you scrapping DYNAMO! Way to go! And woohoo for you as you've got talent in truckloads. Can't wait to see them - you'll be in with my little lurrrrrrrrrrrrrve one LOL.
xo

WOW! Arby I must say that that is very impressive. Congratulations.

Thanks Tam... Good luck rather than good scrapping!

wow good on you girl!!! you are very talented, and it shows if all three mags want you!! i reckon keep subbing, dont hide your light.. let it shine!!
go arby!!

Shhhh but I've just cracked SC a couple of days ago for my first layout (due Issue 66 along with our Ms Arby lol) so that's 3 mags for me tooooooooo - yippeeeeee. (I have the first Kaiser Wood Xmas tree album in the current SM 10-9 p78, and I'm supposed to be in the new Creative Paper Issue 73 due this week sometime - and it's Arby's son Josh in the photo!!! yayyy - he's adorable.)

I am so glad you ladies tell us when you are in the mags, because i always flick through them and never take much notice of the names!!
Thanx

I still tend to look at the names of those doing the layouts and sometimes I can pick the artist by either their kids or their style! I think it's good that the different mags take quite a different approach to their presentation and range of styles and scrappers. Occasionally I'll buy a British scrap mag and they're sooooo different to here. I'm biased toward Aussie scrapping though! LOL
Cheers, x

Buzzy have you managed to find a copy of the issue yet?? I got one yesterday so if you want I can post it to you! Let me know!!!

Ooooooh Arby have you really???? Wow! Nooooo I haven't found a copy yet...boohoo, but I'm heading down south to try finding one today. If I can't I'll let you know and I'll gratefully accept your offer. I'm assuming therefore that the LO is in the mag??? I hope it looks OK. How exciting.
Have a great day. Must head off then LOL before some other bugger nicks the lasssssssst copy and I have to tackle them for it.
Buzzy xo

Well I had somthing happen today that I never have had before... 2 mags want my latest OTP!! I have not answered any of them yet I am trying hard to decide what one I want to be in!! Serves me right for subbing to more than one mag at a time!!

Oh lucky you to be in such a position LOLOLOL. Well, I've had a sneaky-peak and I'd bet EVERY MAG would want a piece of THIS action! Arby is the Queen of the OTP! Yay! CONGRATULATIONS AND WELL DESERVED. It's a gorgeous piece and very clever.
Buzzy-in-admiration (grovelling at your feet again...) xo

You are such a Dag girl!!! Grovel at noones feet... especially mine they smell!!!
But thanks anyway!!

Well, I'm yet to have anyone or any mag have a fight over ...um....who wants me first! But CP want my SM-rejected heritage LO of my hubby aged 3 and his Mum from the early 50s for issue 79 (6 months away!). Yay! And the photo has my MIL holding the pitchfork and the huge mound of hay behind her - classic pic! xo

Oh Congrats Arby, that's awesome news, so have you decided which mag is getting it yet, (I'd be going for the one that pays best, LOL)

My first LO with For Keeps was suppose to be the issue that they changed over so I was pretty pissed that I never saw it in print, but saying that I had two picked up with them the other day, so YAY, also had a few picked up with Creating Keepsakes too.


And girls I'm in SC 66 too. YAY!!!!!!!!

way to go ladies!!

Yah Nic!! yah Buzzy!! I got another LO accepted by CP yesterday too. I like how they don't dismiss you straight off the bat and keep stuff on file for later use! On another topic. SBM REJECTED the thing that both the other mags want.... Well SBM were never going to get it anyway. Even if the other mags picked it up. I was going to email them back and say oh no sorry not avainlable anymore. Dman I won't have the satisfaction of telling them no!!!

Hey Arby who else do you submit to???

and just a really really dumb question but does CP pay???

Yeah they do Nic. But I can't remember for the life of me how much. Buzzy How much??

I sub to CP and SC now more than SM..... I am very unimpressed with SM lately. I have sent a few to CK but never had any bites from them...

I found CK hard to crack. Really trying to get into the American side of CK and also Scrapbooks Etc. Have had things in a UK mag called Scrapbook Magazine. So I'm going international, LOL.


Thanks for that too Arby.

I have a friend who has been published only once so far and it was with CK... I have never thought of international mags how do you sub to them???

Hiya Nic and Arby, and woohooooo all in SC66 together! And congrats Arby on getting another CP one picked up! And congrats to you Nic for both CP AND CK! Way to go!

As for the $$, CP pay $30 for a single LO but I don't remember how much for a double. OTPs are usually discretionary and will depend on the size of the project, products and amount of work involved. I've never subbed an OTP with them (or a double yet) so don't know what they'd offer. Casey and Nadia at CP have been lovely to deal with though. (And I've always found SM fab to deal with too via email or the phone!)

I've only ever subbed one to CK which was rejected, but they seem to like a slightly different style to the Aus mags. I would imagine looking up an overseas mag website would be the way to go, or buying one of their mags and follow any links offered. Is that what you did Nic?
