On the 1st Day of Christmas...

Saturday, December 1, 2012

Click here for Directions on how to get started!



I am so excited to be the first artist to post my project on the 12 Days of Christmas December blog challenge.  Twelve of our design team members will have a challenge for you throughout the month of December that will give you a chance to use specific items on your projects.

In true "12 Days" style, we will build on the # of items used each day.  The challenges will be posted various days between December 1 and December 19 and you will have until the end of December to play along.  We can't wait to see your projects and hope we are able to inspire you to be creative!

Now for day 1:
Use 1 bird on your project

I have created an awesome 12 x 12 mixed media canvas using 1 bird.  Have a wonderfully creative month and Happy Holidays!


Happy Creating!

Fabulous Friday Challenge - Buttons!

Friday, November 30, 2012

Is it really the end of November?! Wow! Next thing you know, we are going to blink and it will be December!! heehee!! It's Friday and that means it is time for a new challenge! This week, we would like for you to use 5 or more buttons on your cards, layout or off the page projects!

This week our challenge is being sponsored by Creative Cuts and More! They were nice enough to send some of their amazing products to our Design Team so we are going to share those projects with you first!


Designer Note: I used this super cute metal tin and accordion papers from this week's sponsor, Creative Cuts and More. I have more details and pics to share with you on my blog. You can click HERE for the details!



From our sponsor Creative Cuts and More - I recieved this awesome thick chipboard mini with various shaped pages... It was so awesome that it came in black!!  I loved having the different shaped pages to play with and it allowed me to keep the pages generally designed the same, but still look different.  I also used the felt flower, filmstrip die cut and label shown in the 2 pages above.  I used papers from a regular Frosted Design sponsor, Graphic 45 to make this Pumpkin mini.  Come visit my blog today to see all 6 pages and other supplies from our sponsor Creative Cuts and More.


Barb made a mini album using Creative Cuts and More Gingerbread House Album Chipboard Kit along with the Gingerbread Shape Assortment die cuts. You can find more details on her blog HERE. 


Anita used the Banner Chipboard Mini Album from Creative Cuts and More and turned it into a holiday banner. She used buttons to form one of her "O"s



 And here are some other projects our Design Team created using 5+ buttons...
