In answer to some of your questions...
1. People who love Cosmo Cricket products and feel inspired by them.
Definitely a description of me. Each and every release by Cosmo Cricket gets better and better. The illustrators outdo themselves each and every time. The sneak peaks and waiting for the releases send me over the edge.
2. People who have a great sense of design.
I have been in the design field for over 15 years. I graduated from the University of Cincinnati with a degree in Interior Design. For many years I worked for several architectural firms as an Environmental Graphic Designer/Interior Designer. Most of my work centered around retail design and mall renovations. I was responsible for sign design, way finding and the interior environment. After taking some years off to raise my family, I am now employed as a freelance graphic designer. I have the privilege of designing scrapbook paper and embellishments for Pulsar Paper.
3. People who are creative.
My parents would say I am the most creative person they know. (yes, I know parents do tend to think the best of their kids.)
4. People who maintain an active blog and are connected to online communities.
I can't say that I blog personally each and every single day but I am trying to be more consistent. It is a goal of mine to try to write on my own blog instead of just reading others. I do post on the Work In Progress blog three times each month. I am active on the TwoPeas message board. If I were to be chosen for the team, I could be counted on to post on whatever boards the team felt necessary. I understand that this form of marketing is vital to the company and will do my part to help.
5. People who are not afraid to submit for publication.
Afraid? No way. I'm a warrior! (or maybe a pest in the magazine's eyes.) I submit everything I design and it is paying off. I have been published 12 times in 2009 by CK media and hoping to get in a few more before the year ends. They must like me a little because I just completed my very first assignment from them. I am hoping that this is just the beginning of a long relationship between us.
6. People who are low maintenance, dedicated, easy to get along with, generally happy and fun to be around. (It's going to be hard to beat last year's team on this one!)
Me. I am crazy about this hobby. The personal satisfaction I get from scrapbooking keeps me happy. It is my creative outlet and I can't ever see my passion for it ending.
Sincerely hoping you select me,
Laina
