Foam boards are great for mixed media backgrounds, for 3D decorations, but I use them as stamp backgrounds as well, drawing on them with glue gun, and stencils I use endlessly for printing, painting, embossing and molding. Thanks for the hop, great projects in it!
ReplyDeleteI've never used foam board before but I'm getting lots of great ideas from this hop!!
ReplyDeleteI'm thinking of making some fabric covered card holders for the quilt shows where we'll have a booth.
ReplyDeleteFoam boards would be perfect to make artsy boxes to hold my journals!
ReplyDeleteI think I'd like to try a book cover from foamboard and stencil on it with modeling paste.
ReplyDeletegreat giveaway! I'm always open to trying new (to me) products and challenges.Thanks for the chance to win!
ReplyDeleteReally enjoyed the hop. Foam board looks to be more appealing after this hop. I loved seeing all the possibilities. Oh boy now a dvd!!!! whew hew
ReplyDeleteI never would have thought to use foam board for mixed media (I'm new to this anyway). I've only used it for son's school projects and for my vision board. The blog hop has given me lots of ideas. Thanks!

Foam board is perfect for book covers and, because it is light but sturdy, wonderful for mail art.
ReplyDeleteFoam nirvana! One of my favorite ways to use foam board is for greeting cards. They give the recipient a little piece of art that's more likely to be treasured.
ReplyDeleteI have never used foam board so clearly I have new adventures in exploring ahead!

You want me to tell you how I would use the foam board if I won it but it would probably be easier to say what I WOULDN'T use it for! SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO many things come to mind on how I would use it...books, as a "canvas", making puzzles for the grandkids, mobiles, home décor pieces, decorative ornaments, making organizers, portable doodle canvas and oh so many other things! As the ever so famous Buzz Lightyear says, "To infinity and beyond!" That is how many possibilities there are for using this awesome foam board in my opinion! Thanks for having so many great hops and for introducing me to such great companies!!!
ReplyDeleteI have never used it either (common theme, lol). But NOW I will!
ReplyDeletei havent used it and sure would love your dvd. thank you both for the prizes and chance to win. xoxo
ReplyDeleteSo many wonderful creative ideas from these designers - love their ideas. I would most likely use the Foam Board for handmade bookmaking but making pencil/pen/marker/everything holder is something i could really use too! Would love to win the DVD too!
ReplyDeleteI would make brush containers similar to Carolyn's. Also, various sizes for my MANY sets of colored markers. I'd decorate the containers with your beautiful stencils and acrylic paint. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteMinitures!!!! With Christmas approaching there are many other gifts/crafts myself and daughters can make, also the DVD would set us up for unlimited ideas!!!
ReplyDeleteI love the idea of using it to make stamps, like Judy Shea did!
ReplyDeleteI love all the great art and ideas in the hop and I want to try so many things like Carolyn's brush holders and the Truth card holders. And, of course, for mixed media art! Thanks for this great group of talented artists and would love, love to win.
ReplyDeleteAs a speech therapist for preschoolers, I use foamboard for all kinds of different art projects and displays. I love the idea of making a small journal I can gift that would also allow me to experiment with new stencils/techniques!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the chance to win!
ReplyDeleteGreat hop!
ReplyDeleteSuch inspiration and variety!! :)
Love the idea of using the stencils as a base for zentangles.
ReplyDeleteGreat inspiration. I think I would use the board for a book binding front and back for journal pages. I do like the paint brush/pencil holder idea too. Thanks for the chance to win.
ReplyDeleteI don't know what I'd use the boards for....I am going to check out the new web site now for some ideas. I did enjoy Mary Beth's use with doodling. thanks for the chance to win.
ReplyDeleteI would stencil directly onto the foam board, doodle, color and create ornaments
ReplyDeleteI would love to create some books (like Maria did on her blog), using the stencils to create wonderful designs on the covers. Then I'd try stenciling directly on some of the foam boards to create art for my home.....oh, my mind is running wild with ideas! Wonderful giveaway!
