CT Calls
I took a step late Sunday night that I was a little leary of taking. While scanning through the Forum at the Digi Scrap Shak under the Crops & Team Annoucements I found the subject: "CT CALL for moi! ;)" by Toni Berman. I have been curious about Creative Teams (CT) for a while, so I read through the subject as follows:

After reading through her CT Call, I decided to give it a try. Why not? What could it hurt? No guts, no glory... nothing ventured, nothing gained. Well sadly, I didn't make the team. She wrote a very nice email explaining everything. I'm glad I took the chance. During this adventure I went to her blog, Toni Berman Designs, and found she gives away a freebie every day. I don't know that I really need anymore freebies because I'm running out of space on my computer, but I was intrigued with a paper she designed with great color and texture (see below). I didn't make the team, but I found another very nice scrap person. Give her blog a visit.

Sample from Toni Berman's "Hallows Eve" kit
This was actually my second try at joining a CT Team. Somehow, about a month ago, I landed on Cindy Simon's blog, Simon Says Scrap, where she was taking CT Applications. At that time I didn't even know what a CT was, so I wrote her an email and asked. Surprisingly to me, she wrote back and nicely explained what a CT was. As a result, I lamely applied for her CT Call. I didn't make the team, but it was a very worthwhile experience and I learned something.
