Girly Swap Card

I thought I would share the card I made awhile ago for my swap partner from the Girly Swap in the Simply Betty Fan page group. I just love the Simply Betty images. I am slowly building up my collection of them.  Just need more time for crafting.  Anyway, here is the card I made for Jackie.

I used this lovely image and sentiment from the Betty Boudoir set.  How cute is she? Colored with promarkers.  I used some digital paper that I bought just for this image.  I think it was from Dee's shop but now I am not sure! I need to log things better!  I added some WOC flowers that I dusted with stickles for extra shine.  Some gems were used in the corner.  I hope Jackie liked my card. 


Hugs,

Erin

SBS Girly swap blog hop

Hey all!! I recently participated in a swap in the Simply Betty Group.  It's my first one ever so I hope I have done everything correctly.  It was so much fun shopping for my partner.  I had some trouble taking good photos of what Jackie sent me.   I really need to get a good camera!! Here is a photo of the awesome card she made me and swap goodies.  I love all the ribbons.  I can't find any like that here.  And she even sent me some simply betty stamps.

Hobbycutz is recruiting, and currently looking for Design Team Members to join us!
  1. Do you currently have an active blog?
  2. Do you love to create projects, working with digital images?
  3. Have you checked out the Hobbycutz website?
  4. Do you love to create for the sake of creating and to help inspire others?
  5. Can you take good clean/clear pictures of your work?
  6. Can you meet a deadline?

We looking for some new DT members to join our Team, to showcase  Hobbycutz products as well as our Sponsor images.
What do you need to do? 
First of all, you must have a blog that you keep current.

Next, send Kobie an email to serve as your DT Application.  It must include the following information:
  1. Your name;
  2. How you would describe your style (we’re looking for all different styles);
  3. Why you would like to work with Hobbycutz products?
  4. Three (3) different projects showcasing your talent (don’t worry, it doesn’t matter how new you are to card making).  These can be most recent or older projects.
  5. Let us know what your experience is working within a design team.  If you don’t have any DT experience, that is okay too!
  6. Any other relevant information you’d like to share.
What is in it for you?
We are NOT looking for people who are into design teams just to grab every digi or free goodies they can. If that is you, then I’m afraid you just won’t be a good fit with us.  HOWEVER, if you love to have fun, enjoy colouring digital images, and want to help inspire your fellow Design Team members along with our readers, then this is the place for you! And of course, you will be given a voucher to spend on my website to get some laser cuts to showcase.

Other Details…
  1. Terms are for six months long (with an option to extend if mutually agreeable) and will start once you have been accepted onto the team.  
  2. We will be creating two separate teams—Team 1 and Team 2 - alternatively.  On average you will need to create 2 projects a month.  However there may be some months where you need to create 3  projects (as some months may have an extra Sunday).  
  3. You may be asked to participate in special events, i.e. blog hops, etc. but these will be planned and discussed well in advance.
  4. All group communication and file uploading will take place in the Hobbycutz Challenges DT Blog. It is a private blog and only Hobbycutz DT members will have access to it. 
  5. All info is available well in advance for you to create your projects in time on the DT blog.

This is an open call for now until we are able to fill up all the available spots on the team. We are currently looking for at least 5 more people.

If you have any questions at all, please contact Kobie by email - hobbycutz(at sign)gmail.com

If any of you, our loyal readers, would like to advertise the DT call for us on your own individual blog. we would sincerely appreciate the shout out.
