• This is a non-paying position. The only comnpensation artists receive would be the free stamp sets and any other supplies and discounts provided by ED as stated in this notice or other written agreement between ED and the DT members.
• One - Two stamp sets per month (this may be either clear or red rubber while we make the transition from rubber to clear stamps). DT members will need to provide a list of Rubbertree Enterprises stamp sets they own so that we can ensure each DT member receives sets they do not already own each month. The stamp set received will be random and may be an existing set or a new set at the discretion of ED.

• 25% discount on all ED stamps and supplies sold through ED.
