As you have seen each week, one of our primary goals for the Paper Crafter’s Library Blog is to keep our readers up to date on the latest information in the paper crafting industry through our Trendy Tuesday weekly articles. We are interested in expanding that section, and are looking for your help to do just that! We also would like to bring to our readers some product reviews on the latest and greatest in the industry. Someone to use non consuable products and review how they work, what they like about them, and what they can do for us. If you think you’d be interested in being a Paper Crafter’s Library Trends Reporter or a Paper Crafter’s Library Product Reviewer, then read below on how you can apply!

Each trend article should include a brief description of the trend, photos of that trend incorporated into a variety of different projects (you don’t have to create the projects – you’d find pictures on Pinterest, Flickr and Google Images) and then 4-6 different products each from different manufacturers that incorporate that trend.
