Submitting Your Layouts

[Kiana]

I know there's few here that have submitted their layouts previously and been included/published in a few scrapbooking magazines.

So who here has? What magazines? Do you still submit to today? If you've never submitted, what's holding you back??

I didn't even know that there were digital submissions anymore. Years ago many of my friends were published (paper scrapping) but I never submitted. Once I went digi I no longer bought scrap magazines and lost touch of what's out there.

I had a couple of mine published way back when (2008? 2009?) in Somerset Studio magazine. I still have those issues around here somewhere. I haven’t submitted anything since then. Are there still scrapping magazines?

Way back when I was on the creative team at Digital Scrapbook Place, we were required to submit to publications every month. I've had quite a few published in Somerset Digital Studio (which sadly no longer exists) and also Australian Scrapbooking Memories. I have copies of all the magazines that I'm published in. I haven't submitted in years and honestly didn't know anyone was still taking digital submissions. I was at a Books a Million on Saturday and I picked up a copy of a Canadian scrapbook magazine and there were a couple of layouts in it by Trina Jones so I guess there are still places to submit digital pages.

Yup Trina is the one that I know has submitted and been published many time in the more recent times

Yup I remember at DSP when everyone would submit to places

One of the first digital places I visited in 2008 was DSP. I still have tutorials I downloaded from there!

As for layout submission, never did any of that.

There are!! Creative Scrapbooker doesn't put a ton of digi pages in their magazines but they do put in a sprinkling throughout the magazine. Kinda cool you recognized my name lol (although they did screw up the credits, and my hometown in that issue!).

I've been published a lot. I submit a lot lol They tend to like pages that could be paper pages.

Ok so I'll share my latest published pages here, since they're both SSD pages!!! This would be the one that Heather saw.

Linked to the page in the gallery:

Yep! That's the one I saw! Congrats on being published!

I published a few pages some years ago, when DST still existed. I don't do it any more, though. I prefer to use the time to actually scrap than making the submission.

Congrats again Trina!!!!
