It's time for a Design Team Call!

Wednesday, January 18, 2012

Read more » |

I want to start out by saying that we have the most amazing group of ladies here that make up our design team! Each and every one is special and has become part of our Frosted Designs family! We have several designers that will be staying on with us for another term (YAY!), but we also have some that need to step down. They will be missed but the good news for you is.... now you can apply to be part of our team!

We are looking for papercrafters of all kinds! If you make scrapbook layouts, cards, altered art items, home decor items or like mixed media.... we want you!! One of the best things about Frosted Designs (in my opinion) is that we celebrate all kinds of crafters! We are not just a scrapbooking blog or a card blog. We want to let everyone share their skills and with 3 challenges going on all the time, there is something for everyone! We would like to fill some positions on all three of our teams. Let me tell you more about each one....

Show Me Sunday - A Tutorial by Joni!

Sunday, January 15, 2012

Hi...Joni here...getting messy and dirty making a canvas... one of my fave things to "play" with!!
So here is the canvas that I'm going to show you the steps of how I made it:



So first off, I wanted to give you a little hint... When I shop at some discount places (like BIG LOTS) and I see they have canvases...and some of them are damaged...  well, call over a manager and ask for a discount on the damaged ones...typically they give them to me for 50% off!!!! BINGO!!!
Here's the one I started with and you can see that I'm gonna cover that spot right up anyway!!

Hi everyone!!
I hope that everyone had a lovely start to the New Year?? Let me introduce myself, I am Amanda and I will be doing the Fabulous Friday Coordinators position, which Barb has handed over to me. Barb has done an amazing job, I only hope that I can bring the high standard to Frosted Designs that Barb has.

Before we get to this week's challenge, we would love to wish a Happy Birthday to a couple of our Designers!


Happy Birthday to Ashley who is celebrating her birthday today!!




And Happy Birthday to Jenny who is celebrating her birthday on the 8th!!

This weeks challenge Cardstock only (no patterned paper). This one will really challenge you. I don't think that I have ever just used cardstock on a layout, card or off the page. Be sure to have fun with this!
