DESIGN TEAM CALL!

Boy does time fly! I can't believe it's already time for another DT Call!

I have been so fortunate to have the PERFECT Design Team members to help me make our challenge blog just as fantastic as some of the others here on the internet. It's been a FANTASTIC journey so far...and with the support my DT and all our participants...life just doesn't get any better than this!

So having said that, it's time to start thinking about our future and adding to our team! Below are some requirements that each DT MUST fulfill in order to be a member of our team. If these are things you feel you are able to commit to, please follow the submission instructions and apply for a position on our team!

Want to be a part of the Stamptacular Design Team? As a DT member you will be required to:


* Submit a completed project weekly to the Stamptacular SECRET DT Blog, following the challenge requirements, no later than midnight (EST) the THURSDAY before the challenge is posted to the blog! You will get ALL of the challenges in plenty of time to allow you to complete them well before the due date!

* Take excellent quality photos of your completed projects.

* Post positive comments on your ASSIGNED participants' blogs sometime during the week of the particular challenge they participate in. NO EXCEPTIONS! Comments MUST be specific to each entry! MUST be done before midnight (EST) Saturday before a new challenge is revealed on our challenge blog!

* SCHEDULE/POST your weekly challenge creations on your blog each week by/at 6:00AM Eastern Standard Time!

* Help to find sponsors willing to donate prizes for our challenges (this can be friends, companies or yourself)

* Be open and honest with me when you feel there's a problem or something needs to be addressed or anytime you just want to chit chat.

* ENJOY participating and being part of the Stamptacular DT!

ALL ACCEPTED DESIGN TEAM MEMBERS MUST AGREE TO AND FULFILL A SIX (6) MONTH COMMITMENT! (April 2012 - the end of September 2012)

Please e-mail your submissions to misscill@yahoo.com by midnight (EST) February 29th, 2012 to qualify. Accepted Design Team members will be notified no later than Saturday March 3rd, 2012.


DO NOT POST A COMMENT HERE TELLING ME TO LOOK AT YOUR WORK ON YOUR BLOG...YOU MUST SEND AN E-MAIL WITH YOUR CHOICE OF 1-2 SUBMISSIONS OF YOUR BEST WORK AND YOUR BLOG LINK IN ORDER TO BE CONSIDERED!
