Hello, and welcome to the Christmas Craft Creations challenge for July!
Before I get to the challenge, we're having a Design Team Call to fill out some spaces in our team. If you love crafting and want to make Christmas designs all year round you might be the right fit for the team!
The requirements for joining the team are:
- You commit to making one Christmas project a month following the predetermined theme
- You will upload your project to the dedicated DT blog promptly (we also have a DT group on Facebook)
- You commit to commenting on a selection of the entries to the challenge each month
- You commit to voting on top picks promptly 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, or click the email link in the sidebar, with the subject "CCC DT Call - [Your Name]" and include the following information:
- Your name and a brief bio (e.g. how long you've been crafting, a note on your style)
- Your team preference (launch team posts on the 2nd Wednesday of each month, reminder team on the 4th Wednesday. Please note that the stated preference does not guarantee an invitation to that particular team)
- Mention any teams you are currently designing for or have previously designed for (prior experience is not an essential requirement)
- Links to your blog and any crafting social media pages you may have (Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, Pinterest...)
- Examples of three of your best projects (preferably Christmas projects, but this is mostly to get an idea of your work)
The deadline for application is 6th August. Please make sure you have followed the application instructions thoroughly. Not following the instructions will reduce your chances of joining the team. I will endeavour to reply promptly to acknowledge all applications, but please do be patient with me as life can be hectic at times!
We can't wait to see your applications and look forward to inviting you to the team!
And now, without further ado... It's that time of year again - it's Christmas in July! For this month our theme is Anything Goes - as long as your focus has Christmas in mind, you can make absolutely anything! We have lots of gorgeous inspiration for you from our launch team.
In the spirit of Christmas in July, we have some lovely prizes up for grabs. In no particular order, they are:
- You commit to making one Christmas project a month following the predetermined theme
- You will upload your project to the dedicated DT blog promptly (we also have a DT group on Facebook)

Such wonderful DT makes for this challenge! If I was lucky enough to have my name drawn, I would love to have the Bird Post stamp. <3
ReplyDeleteGreat makes by the DT. I'm not sure that I'd use Prize 1, but I'd love to be in with a chance of winning any of the others please. xx
ReplyDeleteWonderful inspiration and prizes! Prize #3 or #4 would be my top picks! I'm in the US.
ReplyDeletesome cute and pretty cards from the DT.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the lovely inspirations and fab prizes! If I will be drawn, please not prize1.
ReplyDeleteHello. Just wanted to give you a heads up that Blogger keeps unpublishing then re-instating my post entry #67. So you may have to refresh a few times until they re-instate the post again to see it. I don’t know how to stop it… sorry about this. 🤷🏻♀️
ReplyDeleteIf I was lucky to win a prize, I would prefer #3 or #4 thank you
ReplyDeleteSuch fun and creative cards from the Designers! xx
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for another fun challenge! If I'm one of your lucky winners, I would love any prize other than #1 (don't think I'd use that one).
ReplyDeleteGreat challenge samples and I have added the graphic to my blog , thanks Blankina
ReplyDeleteBeautiful DT presentation. I don't use stamps like Prize 1.
