DominoART Design Team Call!

Hello Dominoians!

This is something I've been wanting to set up for a while now after Leigh's Altered World of Game Pieces came to an end when The Stampers Mall website closed its doors and I'm pleased to finally be putting the call out for the first official DominoART Design Team!

I really want to wake up the group and draw our members attention back to us!  I'm looking for Dominoians who are willing to hold a participating presence on the DominoART yahoo group as well as on the Facebook page by sharing their projects (with either detailed step out instructions and photos or 'how to' summaries with photos), discussing their projects and answering questions about
them and are willing to take part in extra challenges, DMT projects and other group events when they can.

The Details:

Sign up for a 6 month term with an option to possibly continue into upcoming terms if you want to.
Email me and tell me a bit about yourself, how long you've been stamping in general, altering dominoes and whether you make cards, tags, ATCs and if you're a scrapbooker, etc.  Please include about 4-6 photos showing me examples of your artwork.  Of course I would like to see some
altered game pieces but would like to see samples of your other altered art and cards, etc too.

You will be required to make one project per week to be shared...
  • on your own blog and entering it into blog challenges
  • on the DominoART yahoo group with uploaded photos (for our members who don't blog or use Facebook) 
  • on the DominoART Facebook page 
  • Email me the link to your blog post so the project can be shared here on the DominoART blog.  If you don't have a blog but share your projects in online galleries like Splitcoaststampers then you'd give me links to those sites instead. 
  • sharing your projects in online galleries and or other groups, etc if you belong to any.
Projects will not always be strictly altering dominoes.  All other game tiles, game pieces, other board games and things like playing cards will also be involved!  Sometimes I will even ask you to create cards, tags, etc that feature rubber stamps or digi stamps of game themed images too!  If you're a scrapbooker I might even challenge you to incorporate your game art on your scrapbook pages
too.

You will be required to submit at least 1 project for magazine publication where you mention our wonderful world of DominoART during your 6mth term. Magazine publications can be either print or online mags.

Challenge Participation:

To start I will host the first challenge for the month and the design team projects will be based on the challenge theme.  This project will count towards your monthly requirement for that particular week.  After that I would love it if the team came up with challenge ideas of their own to host each month and then we can take turns hosting.  To host you will need to come up with the tutorials or step out instructions and project photos for your challenges.  Our challenges will listed on the Feline Playful Challenges blog and hopefully draw in players.  I will be looking for sponsors for our challenges so if you know of anyone who would like their company showcased and provide a challenge prize then
let me know!

DominoART's 31 Days of Halloween event:

One or more of your projects for October will be included in the 31 Days of Halloween event.

What's in it for you?

For the first month or so until I see how well things are going and how popular and active the group, the blog and FB page become there won't be much in it for you besides the chance to have your projects showcased and oohed and aahed over.  I will then be able to start recruiting sponsors to supply the team with goodies to create with.  If you are in a position to recruit sponsors too then the more the merrier!  I will also send you stuff from my own personal stash from time to time to
create with too.  So I'm looking for people who are mainly in the team for the pleasure of creating and sharing their art and enjoy being challenged to create out side the box or out of their comfort zones than just in it for what free stuff they can get and who won't just disappear once they get the free stuff!   You will also get a nifty DominoARTtist DT blog badge to proudly display on your
blogs and your name and blog addies will be included on the group home page and in the blog sidebar.

So that's basically it for now.  I might think of something else to add or make changes down the line so if you're willing to be patient and you would love to be a DominoARTist then I'd love to hear from you ;0)  I haven't decided yet on how many people will be on the team and I don't have a deadline for applications yet coz it depends on how many of you come running so stay tuned and I hope to
announce our new design team very very soon ;0)

Email me and put DominoART Design Team Application in the subject line!
