I'm Wondering.....

if any of my scrappy friends out there has any advice to offer about being published. I'm feeling a bit discouraged here. See, I love to scrapbook. And people tell me that I do alright with it. But, it seems to me that being alright is not enough. I look at what's being published in my favorite magazines, and, while many of the layouts are beautiful, (perhaps selfishly) I feel like mine are just as good.

So then, what am I doing wrong?
Sigh.

Here's my latest reject - loved this sketch and chose to use some pictures of my hubby and myself from our family photo shoot last summer :


Guess I'll just have to keep trying.

Happy Valentines Day.....

to you! I wish that I could say that my hubby and I are doing something special today, but alas! Real life has gotten in the way (alas? what the heck?) and we are not.

Anyways, the combo over at CCG this week is (in my humble opinion) perfect for Valentines Day, plus they challenged us to scrap about our sweeties! So in honour of my love, here's my page :




I hope you have a beautiful day with your significant other!
