MIUCB #50 Anything Goes + Stamping

Hi everyone and welcome back to the Mix It Up Challenge Blog! Thanks to everyone who played with us in last month's "Anything Goes + Layering" challenge! We absolutely loved seeing all your awesome creations! We have one slight change to let you know about - we'll be announcing the previous month's Winner and Top Picks on the 10th of the month going forward, so be sure to check back with us on the 10th to see if you're in the line-up!

And we have one more important announcement about Feedburner going away in a few weeks. 
    1. If you want to be a new email subscriber: Click the big white "Get new posts by email" button over on the right sidebar, type in your email address and click the Subscribe button to get our posts via Follow.It
    2. If you were already getting our posts from Feedburner via email: I have transferred our existing email followers over from Feedburner to Follow.It so if you were an active subscriber then your email address was included. 

In either case above, you should receive an email requesting that you confirm your subscription with the new service. Once you have confirmed your subscription for this challenge blog, click Edit over on the right side to change your delivery setting and scroll down to Output Channels. Note that Newspaper (email) and News Page are set by default and you will need to change this to Single Emails in order to get our individual posts. This is what the screen looks like after the change has been made:



Hope you don't mind all this extra information but when I signed up to follow a friend's blog via Follow.It, I didn't know to do this and I wasn't getting her posts. So I thought I would share the knowledge! ;)

Okay, on to our challenge! Are you ready?! Our theme this month is...
Anything Goes + optional twist of Stamping
(clear/rubber only, no digis)

Our challenges are always Anything Goes but we always offer an OPTIONAL technique twist just to inspire you! It's up to you whether or not you play the twist... just remember the twist is NOT mandatory to play! ;)

The Mixed Up Girls have been busy creating some pretty amazing stuff to get your mojo going! Take a look at these pretties...



Feel free to visit our designers' blogs for full details on their DT inspiration projects and take a moment or three to let them know you love what you see - it would totally make their day! And leave us a comment when you link up... we love reading your comments!

As a reminder, you can enter up to five projects in our challenges! And be sure to check out our sister blogs, Love To Scrap Challenge Blog and Love To Craft Challenge Blog, where you can enter up to five projects as well! We'd love to see you there! And if you've started creating your Christmas projects, join us over at our newest sister blog, Merry Little Christmas Challenge Blog!

This challenge will run all month long, ending at 4:00 PM Mountain Time on the last day of month, so grab your papers, scissors and embellishments, and mix it up with us!

Hugs,
The Mixed Up Girls

I cannot link my card upto your linky. I think there is a problem with Blenza as a number of sites have the issue today.

My card is here https://amandacruxton2.blogspot.com/2021/06/gingerbread-family.html

Hello, I have been having linking trouble in blogland today but looks like it worked! Sorry if anything is duplicated :) The DT projects are all brilliant and varied. Vee xx

Hi Mandy - thanks so much for playing in our challenge this month! Sorry the linky tool wasn't working when you visited but it is working now. We'd appreciate it if you'd come back to enter your project, as leaving a link in a comment is not a guarantee that your project will be seen and considered for winner or top pick honors. Thanks!
