Ching-Chou Kuik Digital Stamps Blog Design Team Call - November 2021

Hello everyone. 

We have just celebrated our 7^th anniversary for the Ching-Chou Kuik Blog Challenge and Facebook Challenge.

Sadly we are losing the very talented Bonnie and aNNie from the Blog Design Team (DT) shortly and as we were a few Design Team members short on the Blog and Facebook Design Teams we are doing a Design Team Call.

 I am therefore looking for FOUR new Design Team members for the Blog DT.

The Design Team commitments are:

·       The Design Team commitment is 3 cards/creations a month using Ching-Chou Kuik’s Digital Stamps.

 ·       For WEEK ONE/MONTHLY BLOG CHALLENGE you will get to choose one image from the Etsy Store to use for the Blog/your Week One Inspiration Post.

·       For WEEK TWO and WEEK THREE you will know well ahead of time the topics so you can request images.

·       ALL of the topics for 2022 will be going on a Closed Ching-Chou Kuik Facebook Group shortly and images can be requested when the “Event” goes on the Facebook Group so even though you are just applying for the Blog Design Team you will need to have a working knowledge of Facebook.

 ·       You will have a specific day to post on your blog and the Inspiration and Challenge Blog and also the main Ching-Chou Kuik Digital Stamps Facebook page. 

·       You will have to comment on specific entries to the Monthly Challenge on the Inspiration and Challenge Blog and these will be given to you if you become a DT member.

·       As I have said you need to have a knowledge of Facebook as there is a closed CCK Blog/Facebook DT Group where we natter, put our request for images on the Events pages and show anything we make. 

WHAT YOU WILL GET IN RETURN FOR BEING A CHING-CHOU KUIK DIGITAL STAMPS DESIGN TEAM MEMBER

In return for being a Ching-Chou Kuik Digital Stamps Design Team Member you will get the following:

·       A Ching-Chou Kuik's Digital Stamps Design Team Badge to put at the sidebar of your blog that Ching-Chou Kuik will make for you.

·       Ching-Chou Kuik will design a watermark for you to use on your cards/creations that you make for the Blog Design Team.  All DT members need to use the watermark made for them.

·       Three Ching-Chou Kuik’s Digital Stamps every month that you will use for your WEEK ONE/MONTHLY CHALLENGE, WEEK TWO Inspiration Post and the WEEK THREE Inspiration Post.

·       For the Blog DT you have the option of making an “anything goes” project for WEEK FOUR.  This helps to promote Ching-Chou Kuik’s images and helps you to build and admire your collection of images.  PLEASE NOTE:  This is OPTIONAL.  Your only commitment is for your THREE projects for the Blog Design Team.

·       15% off on all Etsy store items (when you have got your code please keep it safe and use when placing an order.  This code is for DT Members only.)

 ·       Being part of a lovely and friendly Design Team from all around the world.

Well I think that is about it.  If you would like to join the Blog Design Team please click the link below as we would lovely to have you join our friendly and ever so talented Design Team.

This Design Team call will remain open until 30 NOVEMBER 2021. 

You will be looking at starting on the Design Team on 1 January 2022 if you are successful.

New Design Team Members

We recently held a Guest Design Team call and six people were invited to join the Ching-Chou Kuik Blog and Facebook Design Teams from June to August.

Our new challenge will be starting on 1 August so I thought I would let you all know that 4 of the Guest Designers have agreed to join the permanent Design Team - whoopeeee!!  Sadly two Guest Designers, Michelle and Rebecca will be leaving us at the end of August 2020 but we have loved seeing their creations.

So who is staying?  Please welcome our new Design Team Members:

  

  

They will be starting as permanent Design Team Members come 1 September 2020.

We look forward to seeing what they create.

Three New Design Team Members for the Ching-Chou Kuik Digital Stamps Inspiration and Challenge Blog

We recently held a Design Team Call.  The level of people's crafting that applied and it was a very hard decision on which new Design Team Members to pick.  We were initially looking for 2 but ended up with 3.  If we were totally honest we would have liked to have taken everyone on but that just wasn't possible.

Now I would just like to introduce to you our three new DT Members:

 Our first new DT Member is Aurora and her blog can be found HERE.

 Our second new DT Member is Lozzy and her blog can be found HERE.

Our third new DT Member is Sylvia.  She has worked on both the Blog and Facebook DT in the past.

Ching-Chou Kuik and the rest of the Blog DT will look forward to working with Aurora, Lozzy and Sylvia.

As you might or might not know there is a Ching-Chou Kuik Digital Stamps Facebook Group.  Today is also an exciting day as Bonnie the Facebook DT Leader will also be announcing the new Facebook Design Team Members.

The new Facebook Design Team Members are:

Laura

Samantha

Sande.

Thank you so much to everyone that applied for both the Blog Design Team and also the Facebook Design Team.  It would have been lovely if we could have taken everyone on but it was just not possible.

Design Team Call - July 2015

We recently had a Design Team member leave and sadly another is leaving at the end of August.

For this reason we are having a Design Team Call.

We are looking for 2 new Design Team Members so that when we have an inspiration week we can have every day of the week covered.

What do you have to do as part of the commitment as a Ching-Chou Kuik Digital Stamps Blog Design Team Member:

• You MUST have an active blog and post regularly so that you can promote the cards/creations that you make, publicise any new releases or give details of any sales etc. A Facebook account is also necessary to do the same promoting
• You need to be a member of the Ching-Chou Kuik Digital Stamps Facebook Group and post your creations on that Group as well.  There is also a private Ching-Chou Kuik Digital Stamps Facebook Group specifically for the Design Team Members and you will need to be an active member of this as well
• You need to enjoy participating in challenges in Blogland or on Facebook as this is where promotion can be made for Ching-Chou Kuik’s images
• You must be capable of taking beautiful photos of your cards/creations
• You must be able to create 3 creations a month using Ching-Chou Kuik Digital Stamps (this may involve new releases, images chosen for the Design Team Members to use by Ching-Chou Kuik herself or the use of existing images from the Etsy store). If you want to make more creations that is perfectly fine.  For Weeks 4 and 5 (if there is one) these will be Showcase Weeks where cards/creations will be highlighted each day from those that have entered the Ching-Chou Kuik Digital Stamps Monthly Challenge Blog, the Ching-Chou Kuik Digital Stamps Monthly Facebook Challenge or shared their cards/creations on the Ching-Chou Kuik Digital Stamps Facebook Group.
• You will be given a specific day each week to do a post on the Ching-Chou Kuik Digital Stamps Inspiration and Challenge Blog, your own blog and also to do a post on the Ching-Chou Kuik Digital Stamps Facebook Group
• You will be allocated specific numbers to comment on the entries to the monthly blog challenge on the Ching-Chou Kuik Digital Stamps Inspiration and Challenge Blog.  Commenting is a VERY important part of a Design Team role as it gives crafters encouragement and it lets them know that we appreciate them taking the time to enter our challenge and this is why commenting MUST be undertaken by Design Team Members
• You will need to post your 3 creations per month on your personal blog, the Ching-Chou Kuik Digital Stamps Monthly Challenge Blog and the Ching-Chou Kuik’s Digital Stamps Facebook Group every month on the day you have been specified to use each week
• You will need to invite new members who love stamping and crafting to join Ching-Chou Kuik’s Digital Stamps Facebook Group
• You must promote the shop on your blog and on Facebook and any other social networks if possible especially when there is the start of a new challenge, there are special offers in the Etsy Store or when there are new releases in the Etsy Store.

Here is what you will get from being a Design Team Member of the Ching-Chou Kuik Digital Stamps Design Team:

• A Ching-Chou Kuik's Digital Stamps Design Team Badge to put at the sidebar of your blog. This will be a personal badge that Ching-Chou Kuik will make using one of your card/creations using one of her stunning images
• 3 new Ching-Chou Kuik’s Digital Stamps stamp every month (you will get one for the monthly challenge/your Week 1 inspiration post, your Week 2 inspiration post and your Week 3 inspiration post)
• 15% off on all Etsy store items (you will receive a coupon number directly from Ching-Chou Kuik that is just for your personal use as a Design Team member)
• Being part of a very friendly Design Team with an Admin Blog and a dedicated Facebook Group for daily chats/keep up-to-date with what is going on with the Design Team
• The chance to be part of a Design Team that gets to work with Ching-Chou Kuik's amazing images.

AFTER READING THIS ARE YOU STILL INTERESTED? 

If you are interested please do a post on your blog and either make a new creation or use a previous creation that highlights your ability to use digital stamps.  You do not have to use a Ching-Chou Kuik image.

Once you have done your post on your blog please put a direct link to it in the InLinkz below.

The Design Team call will run from Sunday 26 July 2015 to Friday 7 August 2015 to make sure there is enough time to get the new Design Team Members in their post for the monthly challenge starting on 1 September 2015.  You will be expected to make a card/creation for this challenge but this should give you 2-3 weeks to facilitate this.

If you have any other questions prior to apply for the Design Team please do not hesitate to e-mail me and I will try to answer your query ASAP.

Kym, Ching-Chou Kuik's Inspiration and Challenge Blog Design Team Leader
