DESIGN TEAM CALL!

From January 1st 2014 Cards Galore will be under "new Management!" Unfortunately Debbi no longer has time to manage the monthly Challenge and so Isobel Hunter and myself will be taking over and hoping to emulate Debbi's fantastic work! We are now looking for a new Design Team to begin on January 1st 2014. We have lined up sponsors for each month and most are offering lovely digi stamps for the DT to work with! Our requirements are as follows:- 1. Each team member must have a blog and post regularly. You will also need a Facebook account. You are required to blog your project on the day that the challenge goes live and your post must include links to both the Challenge and the Sponsors website and would usually include a badge provided by the Sponsor.
2. Each team member is required to produce one project a month based on a particular theme and using Sponsors' products when provided. The project must be photographed and uploaded by the 28th of each month. If you are going on holiday please let us know in advance so we can get a Guest designer in.
3. Each team member will be given a number to comment on, please comment before the end of the challenge.
4. We would also ask you to enter other challenges with your projects so that our Challenge reaches different audiences!
5. Most of all we want this to be a fun, friendly group with good communication so we want you to be HAPPY to be on the team x If you would like to apply for a position please contact us at cardsgaloreencore@yahoo.co.uk with a link to your blog and a little bit about yourself and your crafting. We can't wait to hear from you!!! Denyse and Isobel XXXX
