 answer this question:
Since you are already a designer at Basic Grey, who do you think Basic Grey should hire as their next hot designer? Someone in the scrapbooking spotlight today, a brand new face maybe someone right out of art school, or should they just feature your designs because as we heard yesterday,
you have some great ideas?

Nicole Brenna said...

Kelly Massman said...

I think Tim Holtz is a wonderful designer but I also think new faces with fresh ideas is what keeps the industry thriving. There is so much talent in blogland so I think that would be a great place to look. Thanks for the great giveaways.

Pammejo said...

I think a new face should be introduced. Always a lot of creative ladies out there doing some amazing designing.

Lynnette Davis should be hired. I love her style.

A Sarasota said...

I like that fact that you have features women be designers. just like me. Someone not professional but, just an average women that really enjoys using Basic Grey!!!!

Jenny Brannies said...

I think it's fine the way it is. Kelly G. does an awesome job!

Scrapamum said...

I think a new fresh new face would be fabulous!!!! There is so much wonderful talent it would be nice to see a not so well known face!!!

kate blue said...

we def need new talent...I nominate all of us @ candy shoppe DT!

Krystle said...

I love BG doilies! I would love for BG to bring in someone right out of art school with some fresh new ideas to incorporate into BG's steller lineup!

Janine Rachau said...

New talent would be very cool!!

AmesOx said...

Let's see...if I am already a designer at BG and I actually had to work alongside this new designer then I would have to go with Lynnette Davis as well. She would add an eclectic funk to Basic Grey and I think a lot of people would buy all of our designs because we are just awesome like that!

Leah l'Orange said...

the DOILIES! oh, they are FABULOSO!! i love all of the new elements! can't wait to check out Breathless, and i'm ITCHING for the Oliver and Olivia lines!

BG has some amazing designers - if they were looking for a new one to add to the mix, i happen to be hunting for a new job/career right now! ;) OH, wait, i already work for them? okay, then i think it would be fun to pick 'em out of a Blogger pool and have a big reality show based on it!

Shinywen said...

I'm so excited that you're giving away card kits! Not enough attention is given to how us cardmakers use paper and scrapbooking products, I feel. In that vein I would nominate my Flickr friend Veltheimia as a next designer. She makes AMAZING ATCs out of all kinds of paper and embellishments. I'll bet with some Basic Grey and a little encouragement she'd be turning out STUNNING greeting cards.

StampinCathy said...

Love this kit and look at those adorable doilies. Gosh there are so many creative and inspiring crafters that would rock using Baisc Grey. I know anyone from the Unity DT would be amazing. Thanks for a chance.

D said...

I love Roni's work over at http://inkstainswithroni.blogspot.com/. She's an amazing designer and would be a perfect match with Basic Grey.

Tona said...

I would like to see a new face. New usually means fresh & exciting ;)

Miss Jaster said...

I love those greeting card kits, they're some of my fave BG products! They make cute cards, so easy!!!

I think BG should hire Julie Tucker-Wolek, because she's my scrappy hero. She always does new innovative things, and she's so dang HAPPY all the time! :) :) :) :) :)

Darlene S. said...

All of the Basic Grey giveaway prizes have looked YUMMY!!! :)

I think it would be really inspiring to see a new artist on the scene, perhaps with a style that it not commonly used, such as maybe mixed media? There are so many VERY talented scrapper today so choosing just one would be near impossible!

huntla1 said...

Love me some Basic Grey! Do I have containers and pads and packs of Basic Grey? I do! Do I want more? I do. Would I love to win this giveaway? I would. Am I heading over to the store to buy some? I am. Scott, you are killing me!

Jennifer said...

I think they should hire someone outside the scrapbooking industry for a completely fresh take on it!!

Nitasha said...

Hmm...so many worthy designers out here in Scrappyland including the awesome chicas who post here!
But because I love to see fresh new faces and love for new people to have a chance in the spotlight I would say choose a new art student to be the next Basic Grey Star!!!

Kelly said...

My vote would go towards bringing in an unknown... a new, fresh perspective. BG products are original and refreshing, so the designers should be also. Thanks for the chance to win!

ScrappinT said...

I would have to say Donna Salazar should be one of their designers! I love her stuff!

Tina S said...

I think Basic Grey should get Ali Edwards to design some things for them. She's great at making things that look like they've been around forever but could have been created yesterday. Love these lines a lot

Rebecca Keppel said...

I would have a hard time passing the job on to someone else, I would beg and plead for them to feature me :)

Laura Stewart said...

someone totally new!

Lynnette Davis said...

I just gotta say that I'm SO touched to have been mentioned as someone you'd like to see designing for BG. That was a complete and utter surprise to see some of you mention MY name. WOW! Thanks ladies!

Heather (goldiecar) said...

I have an art class that has a couple of kids who do some pretty awesome work with both grafitti and life drawing... Imagine a combination of both!!! It would be cool to have a more edgy look to some pieces that contrast with softer colors, fibers and images...

brenlubrant said...

I would like to see Donna Donaway design something for Basic Grey. I think she is between grunge and vintage. She would be able to create a new exciting line for Basic Grey.

Monica said...

I really adore Kelly Goree's designs but I also think Shannon Tidwell would bring such a whimsical and fun approach to BasicGrey - I love her work.

Unknown said...

I think a new face would be nice. I nominate Jenney McAnnally. You can see her work here:)

I would love to hire interior designer Michael Smith. He has such a great eye for design and color! If he agrees to work for us at Basic Grey, I just might use his design paper as wallpaper! Thanks for a chance to win such amazing products.

Jessica said...

I say Tim Holtz or Marion Smith! You can't go wrong with either of the two. Thanks for the opp!

I think I would like to see Irene Tan, also known as scrapperlicious. design something for Basic Grey. She always has such great ideas, and she is still a new enough face.
