I'm so excited! I won my first signature challenge! When I submitted my signature, I never expected to win. I was competing again a lot of very nice designs, and I'm still such a newbie at this. We were all given a tutorial to follow. There is a week for the voting to take place, then they announce the winners the following week. There are several challenges each week. I didn't expect to see my own name on the winners' list. When I created this siggy, I didn't expect it to have a chance to win, because the original used a Gorjuss tube. I don't have any of those, nor do I ever intend to. I just don't care for the look of them - they seem a bit too cutesy for my tastes.

It either felt like a gang, or like a brothel, LOL! Either way, I wasn't feeling the love with the word art. So I returned to the Cyndi Lauper phrase. Yeah, I realize I've used it before. But I do like the song. I guess I'm dating myself, LOL. This tutorial was for a voting challenge. I don't think I have much of a chance in this one. That's okay. I don't participate to win.
