cry room....enter at own risk.



I applied in 2011 FAILED. Waited 3 years (YES!!3 YEARS) for another Polly call.. I think I learned from all these nerve wrecking calls, it's not about how not good enough you are. YOU ARE GOOD ENOUGH!! Apply again next time and never give up.
 
Aw.... this thread is just another reminder of why this place is so special. It's never easy to put yourself out there like you have to for a Polly call, but when rejection is handled with so much care, it makes the sting just a little more bearable. Hugs to all of you and don't ever be discouraged by a no this time... you guys are all amazing and totally part of what makes TLP the best place in digiland.

Congrats to all who were chosen...look out MOC, here I come!!!
Thank you so much for the super sweet rejection letter...if it weren't a rejection it could possibly be the nicest letter I've gotten in a while. Laura, you are simply amazing, and make this place amazing!! :wubb
 
I couldn't bear to come in yesterday knowing that I got in and some of you didn't....... actually felt a tad guilty to be so happy but I guess that is life isn't it, one minute you are up and next you are down. Big hugs to everyone that missed out this time around. :happyhug :heartlub:heartlub:heartlub

( i was a bit thrown when i clicked cos for some reason my brain went to 'oh no they didn't save their progress and someone lost their hours of work in photoshop' cos i used to look like that first Alice gif when that happened plus :throwpc )
 
I got 3 "NO"s before I got a YES. Hold down tight, your turn will come.
 
Hugs to all who didn't get in. I too know what rejection feels like but I didn't let that stop me from trying again and this time I did get in. So don't ever give up.
 
check in how everyone dong?

i found a interesting comment, when someone asked what made a good poly

There are so many different factors, and they can be different depending on when we're looking. Obviously, style factors in, but sometimes we're looking for a clean and simple scrapper to round out the other Pollys who have more of a filled style. Sometimes we need that filled style, or an art journaler, or whatever, so that we're representing all the different design styles. In terms of style, a lot of it depends on the make up of the Pollys at any particular time. And it's not about being an amazing, holy wow scrapper. It's about scrapping what you're passionate about and enjoying what you do.

But it's not all about scrapping. We have blogging Pollys, community Pollys, challenge Pollys,. We look for scrappers who are active in the forums in a positive, welcoming way. We look for scrappers who are active in the gallery. Scrapping at the Pad is so much more than scrapping these days, so community involvement factors in as well.

And this is why these Polly spots are so hard to pick! So many things we're looking for, and SO many scrappers who answer those criteria!
