Introducing... TWO new additions to the I Am Roses Design Team family!

It's with great excitement that we announce the addition of 2 new designers to the I Am Roses family!

Please welcome Aliscia and Miranda!!! You will just adore their work and their SUPER sweetness! Be sure to check them out on their Youtube channels and blogs and show them some LOVE.

First up is Aliscia!

Here is a little bit about Aliscia...

My name is Aliscia and I am obsessed and addicted to scrapbooking. My first exposure to this wonderful hobby was shortly after the birth of my first child 7 years ago when I received a memory book from my mom in which to put my photos and other memorabilia. My interest in this hobby sparked even further when my darling hubby was deployed to Afghanistan. Scrapbooking became a way of life for me, it kept me happy, busy and entertained. I love making mini albums, cards and layouts but I think my favorite thing to do is to alter things and to inspire others to explore their creative side. I am very passionate about the arts and look forward to learning more and sharing more with you.

Next up is Miranda!

Here is a little bit about Miranda...

I am a fun loving silly woman with a passion to create! My love is GRUNGE and all things distressed, vintage, and unique! I love to challenge myself with new styles and techniques all of the time. Love to be inspired and to see beauty in every day life! Hope you follow along with my artistic journey! xo

An I Am Roses Design Team Exclusive! How do you store your I Am Roses flowers?

Hi I Am roses lovelies! Today we have something super fun to share with you today! This is our very first I Am Roses design team EXCLUSIVE! Some of your favorite I Am Roses designers open up their craftroom for you and show you how they store their I Am Roses flowers. They have some GREAT ideas to help get you organized and we hope you enjoy the fun video we put together for you!

First some sneak peeks of picture from the designers....

Patricia has the most GORGEOUS shabby chic scraproom... isn't it just heaven?! What makes it so beautiful? All the I Am Roses flowers on all those spectacular projects showcased on her desk! hehe! But really... she has a GREAT way to store her flowers in this very spacious Malm dresser drawer from IKEA...

Leanne stores her I Am Roses in these bins in her Expedit shelf from IKEA. Don't you just love how functional and chic her storage system looks! "Live, Laugh, Love." Definitely LOVE it!

Yvonne stores her I Am Roses "up close and personal" in a drawer in her craft desk. What a fabulous idea to have your flowers at (literally) arms distance from where you are crafting... easy access to I Am Roses is the key to any little crafter's heart! ❤

Jo stores her beautiful, bountiful stash of I Am Roses flowers in these Sterilite plastic stackable drawers. These drawers are so functional and keeps you super organized! Don't you just love how you can peek through the clear drawers so you know what's inside... just open, grab, create! ❤

Andrea stores her I Am Roses flowers in this cube shelf inside baskets and bins. She stores her flowers by color family... Don't you just LOVE how organized this is and so easy to access when you are in the middle of creating a project. ❤

Arlene stores her I Am Roses flowers in this multi-tier drawer system from IKEA.  Each drawer is organized by color family and type of flower. Loose flowers are kept in small clear bins on the top drawer, organized by flower size.

Last but not least, our lovely Juliana stores her I Am Roses flowers in these clear plastic drawers, much like Jo. Super organized and easy to find what she's looking for! ❤ If you ask her, she will tell you that her pink and white drawer is her favorite! hehe!

So there you have it folks! This is how some of your favorite I Am Roses designers store their I Am Roses flowers. ❤

We'd LOVE to hear about how YOU store YOUR I Am Roses flowers. Be sure to share with us! Leave a comment here on this blog post and on our YouTube video. We will be selecting a random winner from the comments early next week. And don't forget to check back here on the blog where we will announce the lucky winner!

May IAR Color Challenge (CLOSED)

Good morning everyone! I hope you guys are ready to kick off the month of May with a Color Challenge. It's that time again for a chance to win some beautiful I Am Roses flowers. So here we go:

*Contest Details/Rules:

• Contest Runs May 7th - May 25th (Ends 11:59pm PST)
• Colors - Purple and/or Teal/Turquoise 
• Theme - Mother's Day (Any project: Card/Layout/Tag/Altered Item/Treat Bag)
• Minimum (2) I Am Roses Products

• Participants will leave a comment to this post and leave a direct link to their project
• Must Subscribe/or be a Follower to the IAR Challenge Blog

We know that not everyone is a fan of purple, so that's why I threw in the color Teal/Turquoise. You can use it as an accent color to help you along if purple is too much of a challenge, but that is why this is called a Color Challenge. We want you to work with colors outside of your comfort zone. To help and inspire you, we have our amazing Design Team and their projects.
