HERE WE GO!!!!!!!!!!! THE BEGINNING OF THE FROSTED DESIGNS MAY BLOG HOP

Welcome to the Frosted Designs May Blog Hop - the first hop of three that will be hosted over the next three months!!!!!!!!!!!  I am so glad you could join us!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am the SECOND STOP on this blog hop.  You should have come from FROSTED DESIGNS.  There are 6 wonderful and incredibly talented hosts that will inspire you, along with 2 awesome sponsors!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  I am proud and honoured to be on the Design Team at Frosted Designs which is a fantastic scrapbooking challenge blog.  

The first sponsor is Molossi.  They are a  100% Australian owned and operated, with over eight years industry experience and access to the much loved paper craft brands and experts.  Molossi is situated in the Hawkesbury region of New South Wales, and our warehouse is located in Wilberforce and open by appointment only.  Recently, Molossi has branched out into producing their own chipboard designs, as well as being a scrapbooking distributor!!!!!!!  They have been so kind to offer an awesome chipboard hamper, to the value of $30.  

Our second sponsor is the awesome Graphic45.  Graphic 45 is an award-winning scrapbook and paper crafting company. We offer vintage inspired crafting products that capture the flamboyant style of the 1920's and 30's - with vibrant color, irresistible texture and imaginative design to create products with decades-old appeal that's both fresh and familiar. Let our products inspire your next scrapbook layout, card, album or home decor project.
