Wow, 30 entries! This was a POP-ular challenge! Lol...couldn't help it! It was so fun to see so many fabulous layouts with so much dimension!
Well the random generator has come up with a winner and it is......PezKat! Whoo hoo! I'll be sending you a $5 ACOT gift card shortly!
Thanks to everyone for playing and check out my July challenge which I will be posting!


It's June and Father's Day is just around the corner so we're going to focus on pop...but the scrapbooking kind!
This month your challenge is to create a page using dimensional pop dots to "pop" embellishments off the page.

I love using pop dots and they are a standard in my stash with the foam ones being my favorite. And if you don't have any, my friend Betsy shared a great idea, making your own foam dots using foam sheets and your Xyron!

I pop dotted the butterflies from this Graphic 45 paper to make them "fly" off the page!

Here are the rules:

*This is for paper projects, they can be layouts, cards, or projects. In an effort to open this up to more cherries, I will also accept hybrid. What I would love to see is a digi layout with something then popped onto it. Any size, which means it could be a mini layout, a card, as long as you pop dot an element onto it.

*You can enter more than once! I will select a random winner from all the entries so the more you enter the more chances you have to win!

*All entries are due by June 30th.

*Post your entry here and list where and how you used pop dots.

The prize.....a $5 gift certificate to ACOT!

Another great challenge. Not that this helps much because they don't really make them like that anymore, but I'll share my 'tip' in that I've never bought pop dots but I kept all the extra rubber you used to have to cut off rubber stamps before mounting them and I use that instead! I have a little baggie full (and really don't own that many stamp sets, lol) which I'm sure will last me a long time, mostly because I forget about it, lol!

I also love all the twists everyone is including this month!

Great challenge! I cut out the waves at the bottom, and popped them using foam adhesive.
Here is mine:

I made this card using pop dots to raise the "thank you" sentiment. I'm sure I'll be adding more to this challenge as the month goes on because I add dimension to almost everything I do when I make cards or layouts. Thanks for the fun challenge.

Can digital play? We can make things pop too, with shadowing.
