Just got my very first request from Scrapbooks Etc! I am sooooo stoked. Can anyone tell me what to expect. I thought I'd heard that they actually pay you? Is it true?
Well, I had submitted it Laney, so it wasn't a random request. How cool would THAT be. LOL
Yeah Alissa, that is where I am too.
Rats Brenda! I think I didn't submit the same LO's to the same mags so that wouldn't happen. Of course, I submitted like a million and got 3 picked up, LOL
I have only submitted to Scrapbooks, ETC. once or twice before, but this layout fit the call so perfectly I had to submit it even though I had already submitted to ST! Never imagined that both would pick it up!
Jennie - I had that happen this time around. Didn't happen the two previous times. And I took a chance and emailed them about how my submission wasn't going through. They were super nice and gave me another email to send it to. So if that happens again, I would try emailing them and letting them know! It was worth it!
I had all mine bounce back to me the first time i submitted this round too... i ended up sizing them WAY down to aroung 250mb (even though they ask for <500mb)
