Friday Challenge - Get Messy x2!

Friday, February 13, 2015

Happy Friday everyone! Are you ready for Valentine's Day tomorrow? Some may be, some may not. Some may think love is flowers and roses and others find it messy! So why not have a little fun with the messy this week?! 

 Our challenge for you…. to include two "messy" items on your card, layout or off the page project! Messy items might include: paint, inks, mists, gesso, molding paste… you get the idea! 

 Look at what our design team created to inspire you…. 

 Barb
Forever Yours Kit

 Julie 
I made an 8x10 canvas -- I started by painting the canvas pink, then while the paint was wet, I used a red mist and sprayed it on the wet paint -- while both the paint and mist were still wet, I took a vintage dress pattern and used my hands to cause a mixed texture on the canvas -- once my 'texture' was created, I removed the dress pattern and let the canvas dry. 


I used "6" messy things!
String dipped in Paint/Gesso mix and then "dragged" around the background (I actually let my son do that!)
Spray Ink (Dylusions from the store) for some extra blue dots
Gelatos (from the store) - yellow around the stitched tag
Watercolor Pencil - Blue Cloud
Distress Ink - edges of tag
Some Elements from the Frosted Designs "Rustic Beauty" Kit 



Mandy

Capture the Moment -  I started with a lovely pale blue and white polka dotted paper.  Next, I laid a polka dotted stencil on the paper and rubbed some metallic blue berry gelato on then continue by paint-able texture paste.  This gives you a wonderful multicolor look.  I took a stamp and dabbed orange ink onto it.  They look like large paint splashes.  Finally I misted some light blue paint followed by painting many layers and splashing.  Now I used another stamp with black ink for a little drama.  The rings received a coat of guava dimensional crystal.  The gears and photo frame were sprayed black.  The final step was adding beads in a couple of the rings.


Enchanted Kit
Tim Holtz Chevron Layering Stencil



Products Used:
Canvas and Pearlescent Orchid ink from Forever Yours Kit

New Friday Challenge - All About Family!

Friday, December 19, 2014

Hello all! Megan here with my last Frosted Designs Friday challenge for you.

 Thanksgiving was just three weeks ago, Hanukkah started this past Tuesday and Christmas is only six days away! Then we all have the New Year's celebrations to enjoy. With all these holidays upon us, it makes me think of my favorite part of the holiday season - spending quality time with family.

 So today's challenge is titled "All In The Family." Your project (layout, card, art journal page, mixed media piece, etc) must focus on family and include a quote about family somewhere on it.

 Here is my example featuring a beautiful quote from Maya Angelou. I first printed the quote onto a sheet of letter size paper, then took a 3x4 journaling card and taped it onto the paper over the text so when I ran the same sheet of paper through my printer again, it printed the text exactly where I wanted on the journaling card.

Products used from the Frosted Designs store:
Heidi Swapp Hello Today Paper Pad
Heidi Swapp Hello Today Acrylic Words
Heidi Swapp Hello Today Flair
Heidi Swapp Hello Today Puffy Glitter Stickers
Heidi Swapp Hello Today Clear Stickers
Heidi Swapp Hello Today Acrylic Stars
IDenti-Pen Permanent
And here are some more creations that the fabulous design team made for this challenge...
I used a sticker that says "Family" and included it in my journaling.
