Shellshocked

Hi there all ...

Just thought I better make it official and let you all know that I was taken by complete surprise and selected to be a member of the inaugural Allcraftz for You Design Team!

I shrieked when I saw my name on the screen, and virtually fell off my chair! I read the words over and over and over again ... thinking surely there's been some sort of mistake ... but no, I'm in!!! Soooo excited, if not a little overwhelmed, and really looking forward to working with my fellow DT members Hannah and Jo, along with Guest DT members Sandra and Alishia, and of course the lovely Mandz. Some very talented ladies there - I'm going to learn so much myself in the next little while ... I can't wait to see where it all takes me.

So, I'm sure it will take a little bit to get everything sorted out and up and running, but keep watching this space to see some of the creations my fellow DT members and I come up with!

Talk to you soon,
Ness.

To submit or not to submit ...

for the Allcraftz for You Design Team Call ??? I'm really torn here - I am seriously considering applying, but I also know the quality and standard of work of some of the people I'd be going up against, so therefore give myself a snowflakes chance of being selected. Can I handle the rejection :D

To be a part of this DT would be absolutely amazing ... such talented people associated with it and such great products to work with .... oh well, as they say, you're only young once! I may as well give it a go ... now I just need to decide which 5 pieces to submit for consideration ... how on earth will I choose? I have made a few new pieces for this submission especially, but going through the back catalogue and choosing others to complete my 5 pieces is going to be SOOOOOO hard. At least I can hope for some 'constructive criticism' about my work, so I know where I can look to 'improve'.

Wish me luck! Submissions close on Wednesday 12th, with the winners to be announced on the 13th I believe ... I'll keep you posted :)

Talk to you soon,
Ness.
