OMGosh What I am thinking!?!?

Right so its that time of year again, you know when all the scrapbooking companies put out their Design Team calls for the coming year. Last year time ran out for me to try and summit something so this year I have already started. I am going to enter to and see what happens, in reality I only want to be on one DT but the likely hood of getting selected is low. I still see myself as a beginner, learner and I question myself all the time. Sometimes it can take days to come up with an idea or put together some paper for a item in a swap like a tag. Other times like this evening an idea comes to mind completely done and I just have to figure out how to make it look like the image in my mind. Well I almost have my first attempt at a somewhat original project done. Once it is completed I will take some pictures(sorry cant share it here yet) and send it to a friend who is on a couple of DTs to critic it for me. Then back to the drawing board if necessary or just tweak it a little. Then I need to sit down and fill out an online application and send it in with the pics of my project and cross my fingers LOL. Once that is done I will take a little breather and start on a second project for the next part of the competition just in case I make it past the first round picks. Now that is for one of the DT jobs I would like, after that I need to get out all my Imaginisce products and design something for them and submit it. That one seems to be less stressful to do but both will be stressful wondering if I am good enough. Once the projects get pass the selection process and I am given permission I will post pics and tell you how to make the projects.
Good luck to all those that are trying out and I know that in the end it will be a plus either way because in the end it will be a great learning experience.
