Anyone can buy a CU stash or run a script or action to make elements - NOT everyone is a good enough designer to create all of their own. To me a "designer" is someone who creates things by hand with loving care, not someone who has a credits file with every item attributed to someone else.
I'm not saying anything bad about all of the designers who entered the contest, because they all created beautiful kits, however, it just seems a bit lopsided that a person who should have won or at least been somewhere in the winners list wasn't considered good enough for Go Digital Scrapbooking.

This is why I said I thought the contest was miss named, to me a designer is someone who 'designs' an item from scratch, otherwise it is a DIP contest, not that there is anything wrong with that, it just seems the longest credit list won, where as I would have thought the shortest one would win. Just pleased I am not the only one thinking it
