DT CALL

NEW INKETTES NEEDED!

We need more talented papercrafters to join our fun, friendly Inky family!!  Firstly we are looking for a couple of new new members to join our existing Inkettes, promoting Inky Impressions rubber and digi stamps, on our challenge blog.  You must be able to submit a project every monday, to be published on wednesday and post on your own blog linking back to Inky.  We encourage you to enter as many other challenges as you can.  You will also be required to participate in our monthly new release blog  hop, on the  15th of each month.

INSPIRATIONAL DT CALL

We are looking to set up a new DT of Inkettes to promote our Inspirational Blog.  You must be able to produce one inspirational project each week, either a tutorial or a YouTube video.  You will be responsible for writing up your own post on our Inspirational blog and need to post on your own blog at the same time.  It would also be useful if you had a facebook page to promote your creations on too, although we do have our own and I will promote you there.

In return, we offer you a great DT package every 4 months, containing Inky Impressions rubber stamps, images and sentiments, and a bag of goodies (charms, gemstones, pearls).  You are free to use these for your personal projects, subject to our angel policy.  Digi stamps are also available, on request.

If you are interested in joining either of these teams, please send me an email with a link to your blog and let me know where you live.  Applicants must be able to post in English.  Please also let me know which DT you are interested in, challenge or inspirational.
