Another CT Call Try...
I have again been considering trying to be a member of a designers Creative Team. While scanning through the Blog of Pamela Gibson about a month ago, I found the subject: "Wanna be a Ct Member? Want My Kits Free?"
Her call reads as follows:
"hey everyone. I have a newly vacated spot on my CT. I am looking for a creative, fun person who would be an asset to my team. The way to enter this contest is to submit to me a layout made with my Anne kit. This kit will only be given to serious entries to the contest. To recieve a link to this kit please email dm_gibson@yahoo.co.uk with the following information: Name, Where you're from, What you describe your scrapping style as, A mini biography (nothing big, just a couple lines) and what you think you'd contribute to my team. Please put the words "CT Contest" in the subject line. If chosen you will recieve my kits free of charge and access to my CT yahoo group and your requirement will be to make layouts with my kits and post them at DSY, Digital Freebies, and Shabby Princess, as well as anywhere else you normally submit layouts to. The preview of the kit you will be using is below. Good luck to everyone."
I happened to win Pamela's Anne kit as a result of entering the Spontaneous Crop she and Jennifer Riggins first hosted at The Digi Scrap Yard and then on their blogs. All I needed to do was create a layout using the kit, post it to my favorite gallery and then send a link to it in an application email to Pamela. Well, as you'll read in the "Incredilble Wait" post below, the layout just didn't happen the way I wanted. And, since it took so long to create the layout, I thought the chances to be on Pamela's Creative Team would be gone, so I did not send the application email.
Today, I just happened to go to Digi Shop Talk and found the subject in their Forum: "CT Call for Pamela Gibson Designs"
It read as follows:
"I am looking for a few talented people to work with my designs. Check out my designs here http://www.digitalfreebies.com/mmstore/manufacturer.php?id=59 and make sure you see winter sweater which will be your consolation prize if you do not make the team. Each member will have to create 1 layout per kit that you choose to download. I am a very relaxed person and i do not believe in forcing people to work with kits that they dont "feel" or to be forced to make a lot of layouts with a kit as i believe that that sort of pressure decreases the quality of the layouts. You may make more than 1 but 1 is all you are required. This call is never ending as i am constintly on the lookout for great talented people. Please send your name, age, where you live, a short bio, a link to your largest digital gallery, and what you think you would add to my team. Hope to hear from you guys soon.

After reading through this CT Call, I decided to go ahead and send the email. We'll wait to see what happens. Keep your fingers crossed!
Thanks for stopping by. Have a great day...
