Magazine cover page invitation

I've been holding this under my hat for months, but now that the issue is out, I can share!

I am often published in Creative Scrapbooker magazine. It's mostly paper layouts, but they do select some digital pages - I think I've only missed being published 1-2 issues in the last 5 years.

In July the editors approached me to try creating their cover photo! They provided the photo and the parameters of what usually gets picked and said have fun.

After I submitted it they let me know they'd never had a digital page on their cover, and it was not successful in being chosen, but it was super fun to try, so I wanted to share as it was so neat being approached by them to do this (usually I just submit things based on their page calls).

I did have 3 pages published in the issue though! 2 are using SSD goodies - I haven't received my issue yet due to the Canada Post strike for the last month, but I can see it on their website:

congrats on your layouts in the magazine - you're a star :D
 
Last year, around Christmas, I was in Books A Million and picked up a scrapbook magazine and starting flipping through. There were pages by you and Amie in it! I felt like Buddy The Elf-"I know them!" :D
 
Wow, what an honour to have been asked. I would have chosen your layout for the cover, it's beautiful! Congrats on having your layouts published.
 
Congrats Trina! That's so cool! I love that you submit to magazines and get published.

Are there any other scrapbook mags still out there? There used to be sooo many!
 
Congrats! I miss seeing digiscrapper's layouts in magazines--I didn't even realize there were still scrapping magazines around!
 
So awesome that they asked you for that! Gorgeous page, hopefully they'll use one of your pages for the cover next time!

They are few and far between. This one used to be 'Canadian Scrapbooker' and changed their name eons ago. I think Scrapbook Trends might still be a thing too?
 
You landed my Hola Mexico Bundle in the magazine - well thank you for being such an amazing scrapper!!!
 
That is so cool!!! I didn't know there were still actually printed scrapping magazines out there... I apparently don't get out much. haha.
