Friday Challenge - Handwriting + Inks!

Friday, April 11, 2014

Hello Everyone!!!  Lori here and my last two posts have been all about Handwriting on your projects.  It should come as no surprise that part of my Challenge today includes Handwriting!!

 I challenge you to use HANDWRITING (either journaling, title or key words) 
PLUS INKS on your project.  

You can make a layout, card, home decor, mixed media or whatever - as long as you have something handwritten on it and use some ink.

And since this is a "Handwriting" Challenge, what better than to have a prize for writing?!?  Sakura of America 




is generously offering one lucky person a brand new pack of Gelly Roll Metallics!!!!  These pens are truly AMAZING!!!!




For my project today, I wrote out my title using some of Sandee's handwriting techniques.  I have never handwritten a title before so this was pretty scary for me!!  I am a die cutter and like my titles perfect - but I challenged myself!!  I cut some hearts on my cameo and scattered them on my paper.  I used Bubblegum Pink Dylusions ink to create my background, color my burlap and color my Studio Calico wood hearts.  I also used my Juniper dauber to ink the Kaiser Craft wood flags.  The picture is my daycare baby Mackenzie hanging onto my finger as I am holding her.

Frosted Designs Supplies Used:
Paper is Basic Grey
Studio Calico wood hearts
Kaiser Craft wood flags
Bubblegum Pink Dylusions
Juniper Acrylic Paint Dauber

Ready for Spring?! Lydia is!

Thursday, March 6, 2014

Hello Everyone!  I know most of the USA is still in winter and Colorado is no exception.  Today my scrap room table looked like spring though!  I've been playing with the papers in the Fresh Cut stack and they are so spring like.  The colors are bright and fresh.  Today I have two projects for you.


This layout was so quick and fun to put together.  I used sheets from the 6x6 pad and then just added some tags and embellishments.  I love products that coordinate together!



I bought this wee wooden bird at my local craft store.  I wanted to bring some spring into my home and this was perfect for just that.  The papers from the Fresh Cut line are beautiful blues, pinks, yellows, greens, and oranges.  A few flowers and a cute little saying completed my bird.



Make sure you stop on over at the Frosted Designs Store for a Progressive Sale that is going on right now!  You will NOT want to miss this sale.  You can find these and other beautiful and fun products there.

See you again soon!

Fresh Cut With Lydia

Tuesday, February 25, 2014



Hello Everyone!  Its been a crazy couple weeks for me.  First emergency gallbladder surgery and then two weeks after that we moved to a different house!  I've really longed for quality time in my scrap room.  I got that time today and played around with the Fresh Cut line.  Its still very grey and wintery here in Colorado and I am longing for spring!  This paper is so spring like with its bright and cheery colors.


I've incorporated some Elle's Studio wood veneer and some Kaiser paper blooms into this page.



You can find these and other great products over at the Frosted Designs Online Store.  Make sure you stop by for specials and inspiration as well!

Until next time,

Bundled Up!

Monday, February 3, 2014

Hi Everyone!  As I write this, I have just seen that Punxsutawney Phil has seen his shadow and we are in for six more weeks of winter.  I am longing for spring but this news doesn't surprise me much.  Here in Colorado we received about 8-10 inches of snow over the last few days.  Perfect for playing in my scrap room and what better collection than Crate Paper's Bundled Up.


My boys were so excited to play on this lake.  It was frozen and the ice was 2 feet thick!  They walked all the way across it while slipping and sliding.  It was a fun day for us all.

This collection is so fun!  Such fun patterns and embellishments.  I've used the chipboard stickers and some fun enamel dots.


I love this big "fun" veneer from the Dear Lizzy collection!


Make sure you pop on over to the Onliine Store for this collection, great sales, and new products!!  I'm anxiously awaiting a box from Frosted Designs and I know it is packed full of fun things!  Normally, I wouldn't wish for more snow but if my box is here, I hope there will be enough snow to keep me in my scrap room!

See you again soon!

More Season of Stars & a HUGE Sale!

Tuesday, January 28, 2014

Hi Everyone!  Lydia here and I have to tell you….I have really loved and used the Season of the Stars scrapbooking kit.  Funny enough, I haven't used it for one Christmas or seasonal layout even though its perfect for those photos too.  I will also admit that sometimes I am a last minute get it done kind of gal.  BUT the ease of how the Frosted Designs products go together makes it so quick to put a project together.  This time around I used this kit for a photo of my son's 14th birthday.


Aron has just turned 14.  His favorite number by the way, so I wanted to show this photo off and this kit was just perfect for it.  I cut the #14 from one of the Teresa Collins papers included in the kit.  They would be perfect for dates, birthdays, Christmas countdown, December Dailys and so many other uses.


I have a total addiction to wood veneer.  :)  I will loudly and willingly admit that.  I love the star bursts that come with this kit.  They are some of my favorites.


These tags both had Christmas/winter type sayings on the bottom of them.  I knew I could still use them by just tucking those parts under my photos!  Brilliant!  Like I said, I love how versatile this kit is.

Now is THE time to pop on over to the Frosted Designs Online Store.  The kits are on sale along with other great products.  There are also lots of new CHA products coming too.  So make sure you stop on over and fill up your cart!  I just placed my order last night and cannot wait to play with my new goodies.
