DT Call for Couture Cardstock!

Find everything HERE. I hope you will give it a try!

Couture Cardstock DESIGN TEAM CALL

The Couture Cardstock family is growing and we want you to join our team of designers!

Couture Cardstock products are hand picked and tested by paper crafters. Our offering includes over 275 different colors and finishes. Couture Cardstock encourages crafters to use paper weighted specifically for the particular technique, project, or challenge at hand. Each of our papers are weighted (light, medium or heavy) and helpful project suggestions can be found in our item descriptions and design team member gallery. We have priced our inventory competitively and though you will feel like you are scouring the bargain bin, you will be enjoying our fashion forward cardstock from the comfort of your arm chair.

We are looking for 2 people to join our current team: 1 layout designer, and 1 altered art designer. You are welcome to apply for both of these positions as you like, but you must submit a separate application for each position, and you may only be chosen for one position. Applications will be accepted immediately, and must be received by April 1st.

Final decisions will be made by April 5th, and the new team will be announced on April 7th.

This call is open to residents of the US and Canada.

Position Requirements:

  • 4-6 projects per month. Project load might vary from time to time due to tradeshows and company needs.
  • 2 blog posts per month
  • Willingness to submit to an editorial process.
  • Cheerful participation in all DT activities, promptness meeting deadlines, and strong communication skills.
  • Ideally, designers should own a digital craft cutter or die cut machine (Cricut, Silhouette, Big Shot, etc).

Compensation:

  • Design Team members will be compensated generously in products, both Couture Cardstock and partner manufacturer products.
  • Opportunities for incentives and promotion exist.

Please read the application requirements closely, as applications that are incomplete will not be considered.

Please provide the following info (all applicants):

  • Full contact info (name, address, phone, email)
  • Links to your galleries and personal blog
  • Please list past and current DT experience
  • Please tell us a little about yourself.
  • Why do you want to work for Couture Cardstock?

Layout Designers:

Please submit 3 layouts of your choice to both hkelley@couturecardstock.com and amcgrew@couturecardstock.com. One of these may be a previously created layout (show us your favorite work). The two additional projects should be new and remain unpublished or posted until the new DT is announced. All of the projects submitted should show us skill in transforming paper products like cardstock, vellum, mirrored paper and chipboard into works of art.

Altered Artists:

Please submit 3 altered items of your choice to both hkelley@couturecardstock.com and amcgrew@couturecardstock.com. One of these may be a previously created project (show us your favorite work). The two additional projects should be new and remain unpublished or posted until the new DT is announced. All of the projects submitted should show us skill in transforming paper products like cardstock, vellum, mirrored paper and chipboard into works of art.
