"Anything Goes!" Cardz TV Challenge






Welcome to the "Anything Goes!" Cardz TV Challenge!  I'm so glad you stopped by!  I am so thankful to Mary from Cardz TV for having me on her Design Team for another term.  She is so wonderful and I am blessed to know her.  She is an amazing woman.  I call her Superwoman because she has so many things going on and does a wonderful job.  She has awesome videos that she shares, and her amazing stamp sets that I love so much!  She gave our Design Team a challenge to create a card, layout, or other project and ANYTHING GOES!

For my project, I made these little Post-It note holders.  I used 4 x 6 acrylic picture frames.  I cut the patterned paper to fit the frame.  For the "Good Friends Never Go Out of Style!"sentiment, I used the Cardz TV Stamp set "Good Friends."  For the "a Sweet Hello" I used the "Ticket Talk 2" set.  These are great sets.  ALL of her stamp sets are so wonderful!  The stamp sets spark creativity.   She has come up with a lot of really fun sets.  I hope you have had a chance to stop by and check them out for yourself.   You won't be disappointed.   And let me tell you, from personal use of these stamp sets, they are made from great quality polymer.  I usually use Memento inks on them and when I clean them it comes right off.
                 
I put the sentiment inside on the patterned paper.  Then I put some bling on top of the frame and used ribbon from my stash.  The patterned paper came from different Recollections packs that I had bought at Michaels. I bought the frames from Bennion Crafts and Michaels.  They were under $2.00.  I found the Post-It notes for .99.  These are really inexpensive and really easy to make.  These would make wonderful Christmas gifts or Craft Fair projects.

So now it's your turn!  Just create a card, layout, or any other project, ANYTHING GOES!  This Challenge will be running from July 27th - August 2nd.  When you complete your project, just head on over to Mary's blog and enter your name and project into Mr. Linky.  She will be using random.org to pick a winner.  The winner will be able to choose a set of Cardz TV Stamps.  Easy peasy right?  I hope you join in the fun!  Also, I hope you check out the rest of the Design Team's blogs for more inspiration.

Thanks so much for stopping by!  I really would love to hear from you!

Lots of Hugs,
Laura

  6. Don't you just love making these? Your's are fabulous!!! I made them one year for the grands to give to their teachers. They loved them. The perfect little useful gift. I get my frames at The Dollar Tree for a buck. I love the papers you used and the added bling. I'll have to remember the bling and to add a sentiment for the next ones I make. :)
