7 Kids College Fund Challenge #138: ANYTHING GOES!

Happy Wednesday everyone! Today starts a new challenge on the 7 Kids College Fund Challenge Blog! The theme for the next 2 weeks is: ANYTHING GOES!! 

Just remember to qualify for the Top 3 and Gift Certificate drawing, you must use a stamp carried in the 7 Kids College Fund Store. This challenge will end on NOVEMBER 17th, 12:00pm MST.  

Some of my favorite stamps are from Mama Elephant, and 7 Kids has an amazing selection to choose from! From my card today I used Bear Hugs. This stamp set also has a coordinating die available for purchase so you don't have to cut the stamps out by hand. I stamped the bears on Kraft cardstock. The best part...no coloring! These sets are great for those of you who are intimidated by coloring. :)
