Facebook Inspiration Team Design Team Call

HELLO HELLO!! The Lawnscaping Facebook Inspiration Team is looking TWO additional designers to our team!

THE FIT Team  ((hahahahaha, I love using that abbreviation now)) is a little bit different than the design team as the FIT team  provides massive amounts of inspiration by showcasing unique projects to our Facebook page throughout the week!   In addition, each designer has a dedicated day over on the Lawnscaping blog each month to spotlight whatever the designer wants to spotlight (a card, a tutorial, altered art, whatever!!!) The FIT team also participates in both challenges per month and has a FIT monthly blog hop at the end of each month! This team rocks and has a huge arena to provide loads of inspiration and showcase your talents all over the web!

Here are the requirements to apply:

• Must have an active blog
• Must have a Facebook page
• Must own  Lawn Fawn  products
• Must have the ability to take good photos of your project
• And lastly, it would be wonderful if you could promote Lawncaping on all social media areas you have access to

If this sounds like something that would interest you, please add your name to the Inlinkz below with your blog link (not a specific post link)...  Each entry will be reviewed!

The deadline to apply is Friday, July 4th at at 11:55EST.

Karin Akesdotter

I’m from Gothenburg, Sweden where I live with my husband and our sweet 3-year-old son. I have been doing arts and crafts, sewing, lacemaking, drawing, water color painting, papercrafting etc. for as long as I can remember, so it was no surprise that I chose that path for my career and studied arts and crafts with a focus on textiles for 5 years at Gothenburg university. I have how now been teaching textile crafts and English at Ytterby Highschool (7-9^th grade) for 15 years. I LOVE my job but always wish I had more time for papercrafting (-:  I love Lawn Fawn stamps and I am so excited to be part of the talented Lawnscaping design team.

Hi there!  I'm a 30-something, stay-at-home mom of 3 little ones.  At some point during my eldest daughter's first year, I decided I need a little something for myself - cardmaking was the perfect hobby to dive into!  I love that nap-time is exactly long enough to start and finish at least one project - and when time is precious, that is so gratifying!  I also love to party plan - and good thing since my kids all have their birthdays within the same 10 days :)

Jenn Shurkus

I live on Cape Cod, in Massachusetts, with my kitty Mister Harley. I have been papercrafting for over 10 years, and have played multiple roles in the paper craft industry as an independent store manager, designer and teacher. With a degree in graphic design I am also Copic and Ranger certified. I love to show people new and clever ideas to design their cards and projects. When it comes to designing cards, I'm more a quick and simple kind of girl- I realize people are pressed for time and I want them to realize they will have time to create handmade greetings if they want to. I also have a flair for the "artsy-fartsy" where I love to have paint under my nails and skin stained with color washes. I design my projects in the way to inspire, but not intimidate. I am eager to share my creative passions with others and encourage their artistic growth through my site and my classes. I actively teach classes with Copics, Creative Imaginations, Hero Arts, Impression Obsession, Lawn Fawn, Luminarte, Memory Box and Stampotique.

Ladies, welcome, welcome, welcome!!!!!
