okay.. so you guys heard about the crop that i was part of on the weekend.. right!? Who didnt.. it was the most scrapping ive done in one time frame in ages.. well.. the results are in... i didnt get close to winning.. though, that is not the reason for my pissy-ness... its the fact that it did not appear to go on effort and quality of the work but how many LOs that someone could throw together.. and when i say throw together, im saying that... very loosely.. where i spent hours on Layouts, some literally threw a photo (not even straight) onto cheap paper and used a texta marker to write a title.. (again. not straight). Each challenge created was apparently worth points... most points = winner. Obviously i did not find the thread with those details. Im so angry.. atleast i know that my work is loved by my family so i guess its not a weekend wasted..
Atleast when i get a reject letter from a mag, i understand that there are lots of very talented ladies out there who obviously had something that the mags wanted, but this is a bigger kick in the guts than getting rejects from mags.. simply because there was no effort justifying the winner... winning. grrrrrrr...
do i sound like a spoilt brat!?
Just had to vent.. sorry. :(

How frustrating.
I loved your work, thought it was just great. No wonder they had so many challenges!
Just be glad that you can be proud of your work and the time and effort put into it!
Heya hun,
there are so many yank jokes I could be making, but I won't. You did so well, and if the judges couldn't see that, well, then they have pretty lame judges, don't they??
You don't sound childish, I'd be ranting and raving like crazy if it was me.
Your LOs rock.
