Welcome and DT Call

Hello!

Welcome to Christmas Crafts Creations! A brand new challenge blog dedicated to Christmas Crafts.

Whilst we're brand new, we're also well-established. Hows that possible? The new Christmas Craft Creations team are what's left of the Christmas at Sweet Stampin' team. With the last Sweet Stampin' members leaving the team the decision was made to split the Christmas challenge away from Sweet Stampin'. But don't worry, we're still friends! 

What does this mean for you? The challenge will continue in much the same way as CASS operated, with a new monthly challenge going live on the second Wednesday of each month. Create a craft following the challenge theme and you'll be in for a chance to be one of our top picks! You can familiarise yourself with the challenge rules in the side bar.

As I mentioned, the last Sweet Stampin' members have sadly left the team, but that's good news for you if you've been wanting to join us! 

DT Call
Requirements for joining the team are:
- You must be willing to commit to making one Christmas project a month following the predetermined theme

- You commit to commenting on a selection of the entries to the challenge each month 
- You commit to voting on top picks in a timely manner following the instructions provided
- You have a blog and preferably craft social media accounts such as Instagram (note: I will consider applicants that don't have a blog but do have an instagram account in special cases)
- You commit to promoting our challenge (e.g. in Facebook groups, instagram, etc.)

To apply please send an email to thejoyfulsoulcreates@gmail.com (the challenge will be getting it's own email address soon, but this one is fine for now!) or click the email link in the side bar, with the subject "CCC DT Call" and include the following information:
- Your name and a brief bio (e.g. how long you've been crafting, a note on your style) 
- Mention any teams you are currently designing for or have previously designed for (prior experience is not a requirement)
- Links to your blog and any crafting social media pages you may have (Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, Pinterest...)

We can't wait to see your applications and look forward to inviting you to the team!
