I'd Love Your Vote in the LUV Open Call Contest!

Earlier this month I shared that the LUV Open Call Contest had begun. This is a chance for would-be designers to submit their very own design ideas for new LUV Dream Flat shoes.  The entrants with the most votes from the public & the LUV review panel will get the opportunity to have their designs turned into new LUV Footwear styles sold worldwide.

I've always dreamt of the idea of having a design I made realized into a finished product and have submitted a few of ideas - with particular attention to the kinds of looks that we crafty types like. The contest ends this Monday and it would be fantastic to have some voting support from people who enjoy my creations:)  

So, if you like any or all of my entries, please click on each of their links below and give 'em a like and/or comment on their respective Facebook photo entries on the LUV Footwear page.  I'd really appreciate it!!

And Here They Are:  

For my fellow sewing lovers, I created this button-themed design with an image from my own button stash. Have comfy feet AND coordinate with your projects at the same time!   Click HERE to go vote for it with a like and/or comment: 

If you love sweet treats, please vote for my LUV gummy bear design, by clicking HERE and liking and/or commenting on it.  I promise it's calorie-free!

And if you're a fan of the nautical look, click HERE to like and/or comment as your vote for my sailing-themed design:

P.S. If this last one looks familiar, it's because it was inspired by my 5 Minute Nautical Clutch tutorial!

Voting closes at the end of May 5th, 2014, which is only a few days away.  The chosen winners will be announced May 19th.  It would be wonderful for a chance to see one of these designs become a reality, thanks to voters like you.  

And if you want to try your own hand at designing, there are still a few days to submit your own design entries too, by going to the submission page on the LUV Footwear site.

Thanks in advance for your support and fingers crossed that one of my designs becomes a reality!

LUV Open Call Design Contest & A LUV Footwear Giveaway for You!

Ever wanted to be a designer?  See your designs on an actual product?  Here comes your chance to realize your own designs at the LUV Dream Flat Open Call Design Competition. Plus, I've got a bonus giveaway for a pair of LUV shoes right here at Sew Can Do!  Just keep reading... 

Here's the info: Back in December, I shared that the Little Miss & I had become Brand Ambassadors for LUV Footwear.  LUV Footwear makes fun & fabulous slip-on fabric shoes, called Dream Flats, for toddlers, girls and women.

 

As Brand Ambassadors we share our love of LUV shoes and spread the word about this fabulous footwear.  LUV Dream Flats are super comfortable, washable and great for just about every activity because they are light, but supportive.  They've become our go-to shoes while crafting, exercising, dressing up, playing outside...you get the idea.

And besides feeling great, they also add a splash of extra style with their colorful designs:

Now I'm sharing some big news with you: The LUV Open Call Designer Contest has begun!   

What does this mean?  Would-be designers can submit their very own design ideas for new Dream Flats.  Several talented entrants will offered the opportunity to commercialize their designs into new LUV Footwear styles sold worldwide, be featured on corresponding packaging and spotlighted on the LUV website. Seeing your own design made into a shoe - and everyone will know - how cool is that?!?



How It Works: The Open Call process is simple; just upload your own design or photo for the outer & sole, choose a trim color, fill in the entry form and submit!  No fancy skills or graphic programs are required, so it's easy for anyone with a creative eye to give it a go. I've already entered a few ideas myself:)

You can submit multiple designs through May 5th, 2014.  LUV Footwear will post entries on their social media to be voted on by fans, as well as by the Ambassadors & LUV Team. Four contest winners will be chosen & announced in late May.   Click HERE to go submit your creative shoe design now!
