Design Star Contest Round 3 Merriment

I have been so worked up over this contest!!  It is so hard to put myself out there!!  It is a good thing though.  
This round will be an elimination round and I am so nervous!!  There is a ton of talent in this contest!!  I am learning and pushing myself to be a better designer and I am so happy to have the opportunity!!  Of course, I would love to continue on in the contest!!  We will just have to see what the judges say.  Right?!!  Today I posted my Round 3 submission!  And I loved how it turned out!!  It matches the Round 2 papers so if you have not had a chance to grab those you can find them HERE.

Design Star Round 2

As I had mentioned before I made it to round 2 of the ScrapMatters Design Star Contest!!!  Can I get a Woot Woot?!!!  Our instructions for this round:  Create 8 papers with our own color selctions.  5 patterned and 3 solid.  So, I got to work and I will admit I struggled a little bit.  I was so nervous!!!  I finally decided on a theme and some colors and I love what I came up with.
 You will be able to download these papers by going to the ScrapMatters Gallery HERE.  You will also find the paper packs of the other Round 2 Designers as well.  They all did such an amazing job and I am in awe of the talent!!!  There are also some others who are playing along and they are doing a wonderful job too.  So lots of fun stuff to gather up there.
Just to let you know the elements to coordinate with these papers will be our next assignment so stay tuned for that next week.

Design Star contest

I entered the Design Star Contest at ScrapMatters.  I had participated in this same contest 2 years ago but,  I did not make it past the first round.  Do you remember this little beauty?
  This item is no longer available for sale or freebie.

I have kept on with designing and have learned so much along my journey.  I entered this time to prove to myself that I had indeed grown as a designer.  Here is the submission I created for this time around.

During the contest I am offering this mini as a Freebie!!  You can go to the ScrapMatters Gallery to pick it up along with many other submissions. 

I am very thrilled to announce that I am moving on to round 2.  There was so much talent in round 1 that I was really nervous!!!  I mean the gallery is full of really amazing creations.

Well, I guess I can say that I proved to myself that I have learned a thing or 2 and have grown as a designer. LOL!!!  I learn something new everyday about designing and I just love it.  Wish me luck as I continue on in the contest.
