We said today’s news would be HUGE, didn’t we? Our news is that we want to work with YOU as a member of our new BasicGrey Design Team! You say you love BG and our products so this is your time to show us what you’ve got!

creating at least two layouts per collection.
posting your layouts to your personal blog, Facebook page, the BG gallery, twopeasinabucket.com and scrapbook.com.

If a BG design team member has a layout, album, card or altered art piece using 60% or more of BasicGrey product published in a target magazine (not website) they will also be compensated. Compensation rates will be shared with Design Team members upon acceptance of their new position. Each design team member will be paid for up to 20 published projects per year. Design team members may also be assigned or commissioned to create additional projects as needed for trade shows, classes, etc. for which they will also be compensated for.

Still interested? Want to be a part of it all? We thought so! Here’s what you’ll need to do to apply…

We’ll select one lucky commenter at random to receive a collection pack of their choice from our latest release : Little Black Dress, Picadilly, Nordic Holiday or Indie Bloom
