Introducing Belinda Griffin...

Hey everyone,

Today I am here to introduce our second and final designer Belinda Griffin. Belinda has a modern and fresh style which is so appealing. I love how she incorporates her Silhouette Cameo into her layouts so I am really looking forward to seeing how she uses our APOCD digital files :) Welcome to the team Belinda!

Here is a little bit about Belinda in her own words:

I'm Belinda Griffin, a 28 year old Melbournian living in the outer Northern suburbs with my wonderful husband and two adorable dogs. Accounting clerk by day, I love to let my creative side loose at night. I've been crafting in general for as long as I can remember but I first started scrapbooking when I was 16 and I haven't looked back since. 

My style has evolved over the years and I feel like in the last year I have really found my style. I love to use bright colours and fun patterns to create cheerful pages and projects. I'm currently in love with my still fairly new Silhouette Cameo, all things gold and cute quotes.

I've always loved to mix manufacturers and Raquel sure knows how to do that so I'm super excited to be joining the APOCD team! I can't wait to start sharing with you all.

Introducing Amanda-jayne Baldwin...

Hey everyone 

Today I am introducing you to the first of our designers, Amanda-jayne Baldwin. Amanda is such a versatile scrapper who scrapbooks a variety of styles beautifully. I envy her efficiency and ability to keep up with a number of scrapbooking commitments and am really looking forward to working with her in the APOCD team.

Here is a little bit about Amanda-jayne from the lady herself:

My name is Amanda-jayne Baldwin, and I am Scrap happy!!! ♡

I am early childhood art educator for Little Picassos www.littlepicassos.com.au, and I am a passionate paper & mixed media artist based in Adelaide. I began scrapbooking in 2010, as I realised I had no photographs from my own childhood & wanted to memory keep for my darling daughter - who would've thought it would turn into such an obsession! !

Last year I decided to submit a few of my projects to Australian Scrapbooking Memories Magazine - they commissioned them all?! I then applied to a DT and was accepted and so began my online Scrappy gallery, so to speak. I currently design for Kaisercraft, Cocoa Vanilla Studio & Imaginarium Designs. I have previously designed for Couture Creations (from which I elected to step away from due to conflict of interest with Kaisercraft), & Paper Wings Productions. 

I have had my creations featured in a number of publications, & also exhibited at a number of expos including CHA. I am always in the studio creating something, & that's just the way I like it! I would describe my style as bright, contemporary & with an enormous love of colour and texture. I believe a picture says a thousand words though, so please enjoy visiting my blog

DESIGN TEAM CALL - OCT TO DEC 2014

I am so excited to announce that A Piece of Cake Designs are looking for Design Team members to represent our scrumptious kits for a 3 month term from October 2014 to December 2014, with a possibility of a 3 month extension into the new year. 

I am looking for an undetermined number of self motivated, inspiring scrappers to create and share their work using our scrumptious monthly kits and exclusive items! By exclusive items I am talking about our Cherry Flair, wood veneer and more :)

I want scrappers who think outside the square and are able to effectively use a variety of different manufacturers and embellishments on one page.  I would love to have the APOCD family represent a variety of styles; traditional scrapbooking, mixed media, cardmakers, project lifers, etc. 

As a Design Team Member you will receive:

* A limited edition 'A Piece of Cake' designs kit each month which will be packed full of scrappy yummy-ness.
* Exclusive extras such as flair and veneer to create with.
* Support from fellow DT in a private Facebook group.
* Your work shared on our blog and other social media avenues including Facebook and Instagram.
* The chance to work in an awesome team where your contributions, ideas and opinions will be discussed and valued :)

What we're expecting from our contributing Design Team each month:

* Creating 2-3 layouts per month and sharing them on our blog and social media.
* Good quality project photography
* Use of digital files (whether digitally or with a die cut machine)

* One detailed post every other month - this could be a tutorial, step by step, video, etc.

* Promote and share 'A Piece of Cake Designs' when possible on social media such as Facebook, blogs, instagram, etc.

So..... Sound good? I hope so!  Here's how you can apply to be a part of the APOCD team!


Email the following to raquel@apieceofcakedesigns.com.au - please make sure you write Design Team Application as the subject.


* a short bio about yourself and a profile picture.

- Why do you think APOCD should choose you? What will you bring to the team?

*  Pictures of your 2-3 recent layouts which best reflect your current scrapping style.

* link/s to your blog or gallery where your scrapping work may be found.

Call is open to all Australian residents. Previous experience is not required, however, regular presence on social media is :) Designers on another Australian kit club may not apply.


Design Team call closes midnight Monday September 15th, 2014 EST. Successful applicants will be notified by Wednesday 17th September, 2014.
