I am a huge fan of Jayne Jones and her talented team over at Feeling Scrappy. (They're on Facebook too!) If you are a fan of sketches, as I am, the Sketchapalooza events hosted by Feeling Scrappy are not to be missed. Some of my most favourite layouts are as a result of those sketches and classes, and the accompanying community is so warm and engaging.
Anyway ...
There is a design team call which has been extended to February 1st. If this is something you'd be interested in, here are the details:
We are seeking creative and fun scrapbookers who have the ability
to inspire and motivate others with their work. Design Team members
will be for a six-month term (Feb 1, 2010 - August 1, 2010) and the
Guest Designers will serve for one class each (approx two months - one
of planning and one during the actual class) No previous design team
experience is required - we encourage all styles of scrappers to apply!
Design Team Members and Guest Designers will be expected to do the following during their term:
1.) Design approx 4-5 layouts or projects per month (based on classes) to be used as examples.
2.) Promote Feeling Scrappy whenever possible and create a link on your blog or website if applicable.
3.)
Participate on a scheduled basis on the blog - working to make it a fun
and inspiring place to read. (This includes posting and assisting with
contests, crops and challenges)
4.) Assist with class development and be an active presence during classes providing support and encouragement to student
For your commitment you will receive:
Regular DT members - recognition as a DT member, a scrappy gift every other month and free classes during your term.
