DESIGN TEAM CALL


Yes, had a lovely chit-chat with Elisabeth Bell, and Yes, we are so looking forward to presenting to you EB's collections at Elphine House.

The Good News is the following, we have the first batch of stamps ready hot-off-the-press from California!!! Yayyy!!! And yes, they're absolutely gorgeous!!

Second, we are now calling for EHA Design Team .... so bring forth your lovely talents to share with the world.
(Below are the criterias outlined and agreed by the Artist herself).

Third, well, Mr Nice Man would like to keep this one up his sleeves, at least for now.  (Just a hint, he's coming up with a competition just so he can give away a couple of free products. Agh, just a couple, but I may add to that!).

And ofcourse, it has been a lovely week in Brisbane.



And so without further adieu,
Yes, it's THAT time... THE TALENT TEAM SELECTION!!

Elphine House Australia is now looking for a creative Design Team to help promote Elisabeth Bell's enchanting collections found at Elphine House.

We have come to realize that there are so many of you with creations so outstanding that it would be very very difficult for us to make the selection.
As you may have already known, Elisabeth Bell is quite particular about the presentations of her arts, and so for this reason, Elphine House will be working closely with the Artist herself in choosing the EHA VIP finalists.

So, here goes.

If you love to colour images,
love to create beautiful cards and designs with your work...
can create beautiful scrapbook based on Elisabeth Bell's images...
if you're even talented in stitchery, quilting etc ...
If you are experienced and passionate about crafting
with an eye for design...
