If you set a goal this year to get some layouts published here is a great open call for you to submit to. I feel Memory Makers Books is a wonderful place to start. As you know all kinds of wonderful things have happened to me in the publication world with this company (Pet Pages Unleashed, Organizing Your Scrapbook Supplies (Ask the Masters!)
Remember this, you can’t get published if you never submit.
If you have any questions please feel free to email me or post a comment in this entry as others just might have the same question. Believe me I didn’t wake up one morning knowing how to do all this… people gave me suggestions, a slight push and many a word of encouragement along the way. Caroline, Jessica, Lisa, Suzy, Wendy, and many a 2Peas Pub Member were instrumental in my success. So now it is my turn to pay it forward.
Good luck!
