SUBMISSION THEMES

Submission deadline: April 18, 2012

Winter: The weather is getting cooler and some of you may even experience some snow fall! Scrap the pages dedicated to the winter season.

Changes: A change is as good as a holiday! Scrap the pages marking changes in your or your family’s lives and send them to us!

Simple and stylish: If your scrapping involves clean lines and simple, effective design we want your pages now!




The following are projects and layouts we are always on the lookout for:

BEYOND-THE-PAGE ITEMS

It’s time to think outside the square, or in this case – off the page. Take your scrapping to the next dimension and show us what you’ve got! We are constantly on the look out for your original and innovative beyond-the-page projects!

Do you want to be on the COVER?

The Scrapbooking Memories team is always on the lookout for outstanding layouts to feature on our cover. The following are a few guidelines we look for in a cover layout:

* A well-composed 5inx7in photo (babies to adults) that is engaging and has eye contact, high resolution and without pixilation.
*A clean and aesthetically pleasing layout.
* Attention to detail and excellent craftsmanship.
* Preferably no large-letter titles at the top of the page



HOW TO SUBMIT YOUR WORK

• We welcome submissions of work from scrapbookers all around the world. Please forward digital previews in jpeg format to submissions@scrapbookingmemories.com.au with the submission theme noted in the subject line of the email. You will then be notified by email whether you have been successful and informed of the process involved in publishing your layout.
• All submissions are considered, whether you send them as individual emails or include multiple ones in a single email.
• If you prefer to send original layouts, please ensure they are packaged in a page protector and braced on either side with thick, sturdy cardboard. The layout should then be packed either in a box (clean pizza boxes are great for 12in x 12in pages) or a tough, padded Postpak bag and sent to the attention of Submissions, Scrapbooking Memories, 50 Silverwater Rd, Silverwater NSW 2128.
• We do not take responsibility for damage that may occur to the layout in transit; however, if you package your work carefully as described above, the risk of damage through the post is reduced greatly.
