Yep, I think I am the only person who blogs about losing contests. (The truth is---I think it is good for readers to know the GOOD and the BAD!)
Remember these:
They are the projects I entered into the Spellbinders Pendant Contest. Well....neither of them placed in the top five (or top eight for that matter as they also listed a few honorable mentions!) Big bummer---I actually thought the crown had a chance.So.....after the design team rejection and now this----I am pretty much thinking that Spellbinders just does not like my style. lol!
You can check out the beautiful winning projects HERE! Seriously, everyone who entered the contest did a fantastic job!
and.......I STILL love the crown!
Today's lesson in life: Believe in yourself, that is ALL that matters! (Some free dies would have been nice, though!)
Thanks for stopping by!

Ahh Cammie, that is okay! We don't think you are a loser at all! The crown ROCKS! Keep you chin up and thanks for sharing the downs or paper crafting as well as the ups :oP
I think your crown is absolutely fabulous, creative, and out of the box for a nestie use!! You always make good use of that creative brain of yours my friend!! FANTASTIC!!!
You're still a winner to me! I thought for sure your crown would be picked b/c it is clever, imaginative and funky! Thanks for sharing the downs too ;o)
Those are not loser projects, Cammie! They are both great projects and I like them better than some of the winners. Very subjective opinions. LOL! I've always wanted to be on a design team and have tried several times but have never been picked. Their loss.
You are a winner in our books! Just keep on chugging along. All your subscribers know that you do outstanding work. Thanks again for sharing your talents.
I took a look at the winners and 3 were wonderful...I think your "princess" is worthy to be in that top 5!!!!!
Well, I checked out the winners, and for a couple of them, I said, "really?" in my head, (the way a 14 y/o girl would say it). I still love your projects. Thanks for sharing your news.
I still love the crown too!
I was in the same boat! I submitted three projects and didn't make the top 8 either! I will be posting my losing creations soon too...I still like them even if Spellbinders didn't! Same goes for you...your stuff is great...don't let anybody tell you different!
I love them both...especially the crown!! Even though they didn't choose you, there are plenty of us out here who are totally inspired by both of them!! Thanks for keeping it real!! Hugs!!
I think it is awesome that you share both the good and the bad. It helps remind everyone that we all get rejected. It still sucks though so sorry to hear it. I personally think your crown is incredible!! xx
You are a Winner to us!! I was going to submit something to them also....but never did.....not to worry! Your projects are awesome and that crown is gorgeous! Wear it with honor girfriend!!! LOL! :)
AW GIRL! I think that the crown should have won something too!! Love that! both are very lovely and are great uses for their die!
Just keep sharing with us, that is all that we care about!!! except YOU of course!!
keep plugging away, Cammie!
I REALLY APPRECIATE YOUR HONESTY! MOST OF THE TIME I FIND YOUR CREATIONS UNIQUE AND REALLY LOVELY. BECAUSE OF YOUR INTEGRITY, CAMMIE, YOU HELP THE REST OF US KEEP OUR CHINS (IN MY CASE PLURAL!!) UP AND PERSEVERE IN SPITE OF REJECTION! YOU'RE CORRECT, THOUGH - FREEBIES ALWAYS MAKE ME FEEL GREAT!!
Personally I think your crown was
fantastic:) A very creative way to use the die!! Your Blog is great and I love your style, never change:)
I love the outside the box idea of the crown but I love even more the positive attitude that you have: Believe in yourself (that is something that I have a hard time with....working on it....but very difficult!!)
Wow!! I think your project is Gorgeous and Amazing!!...I guess it is all about what a certain person is looking for?..To me ...your a Winner!!...Hugs, Ila
You go Cammie, you're a winner to me. I loved the crown, and I think it should have placed, for sure. Don't let it get you down - I've not even been brave enough to submit anything to anywhere...You're fantastic, and you give me lots of motivation and smiles...
I absolutely LOVE your crown!!!! I think your entries are great!
