BIND-IT-ALL DESIGN TEAM CALL!
Zutter Innovative Products, manufacturers of the Bind-it-All, is looking for their first ever Design Team.  Selected artists will be
known as the Zutter Zisters and will be asked to participate in a variety of project making during their tenure.  Being our first
Design Team call, we are looking to fill spots for a six month inaugural period.

To Apply:
  1. All submissions are to be forwarded via email to nan@binditall.com.
  2. When sending photos of work, please provide them in a lo-res format, or better yet, link to an online gallery or photo sharing
    site.  Please make sure projects to be considered are labeled for our consideration (as there is a limit as to how many items
    we will consider).  A “ZZ” label somewhere in the title should do.
  3. We want to see your binding work. Please provide photos of up to five (5) binding projects, using the Bind-it-All and any related
    Zutter products.  We are looking for creativity in all areas, including binding variations, creativity with materials, techniques and
    artistry, as well as applications for quick, easy and “fun” projects.  
  4. We also want to see what else you do.  Please provide photos of up to three OTHER projects – these can be layouts, altered
    projects, home décor, cards, etc.  that shows off your style.
  5. Complete the application that follows.  The document is in Word format; you are not limited to one page to complete the
    answers.  Our goal is to learn about who you are.

What You Will Do and What You Will Get if Selected:
  1. Zutter Zisters/Bind-it-All Design Team members will serve an initial term of six months, with an option for an additional six
    months to be determined following the inaugural period. Assignment date to begin on or around October 1, 2008.
  2. We are not looking for a set number of designers.  We anticipate filling a team of 3-6.  
  3. Selected designers will receive: the new Bind-it-All V2.0, a matching Bag-a-Bind and a R10 Round-it-All, and exposure on our
    websites, www.binditall.com and www.zutterzisters.com, and our blog, www.binditall.blogspot.com.
  4. Design Team members will receive a selection of Zutter supplies each quarter, including covers, pages, patterned paper (from
    our partnering manufacturers) and other supplies to be used for project creation.  
  5. Design Team members will be asked to create at least three (3) binding projects per month, with photos submitted to be
    included on our websites, blogs and galleries.  A complete list of supplies used, instructions, and any special techniques are to
    be included with each project.  Projects can be layouts, bound books, home décor, etc.  Because we are primarily a tool
    company, the sky is the limit in terms of projects.  We do, however prefer to have covers and other base materials be Zutter
    Innovative Products.
  6. We may ask for your projects to be sent in for use in trade shows or other purposes.  If this request is made, the items will NOT
    be returned.  Postage will be reimbursed, so save your receipts.
  7. Additionally, Design Team members should create projects and submit to national scrapbooking and craft publications on a
    regular basis.  Members will be compensated $50 per published project, upon publication.
  8. We may ask Design Team members to contribute to the Bind-it-All blog, to talk about their projects, techniques and scrappy
    activities.
  9. All projects must be submitted with a signed release form stating that the project can be used for Zutter’s promotional
    purposes.   These can be forwarded on a monthly basis with project subsmissions.  Forms will be supplied to selected DT
    members.
  10. If you have any questions about the submission process, please forward to nan@binditall.com, and we will share answers on
    the website for all contenders.

Thanks for your interest and keep on Binding!!
