It was a hard decision and I'm sad to go, but with my new job I don't have a lot of free time and so much I want to do. And what a good way to end this awesome time, by hosting my last challenge:<br />
Every stamper has a little Frankenstein in them. Give a stamp without wings a pair of them. Have fun creating!!<br />

This time it's hosted by Kathi:<br />
My spirit animal must be a magpie as I am attracted to all things that shine,
shimmer, or glitter. My challenge for you is to create a project that literally shines!<br />
<br />
Not really an easy one for me, but I think my card turned out okay. I used Mega Flakes and also some Perfect Pearls (although you can't see it very well on the photo). Further I used Dylusions sprays and MFT Die-Namics.<br />
<br />

This challenge is hosted by Arwen and I had such fun with this one:<br />
I love to combine designs together. This time I want to see something funny. Combines a human body with an animal head. I am looking forward to your creations.<div>
I used a regular matchbox and with the insert you can switch Toby's head :-)</div>

We have a new challenge for you, hosted by Sam:<br />
I included polka dots in a previous challenge and everyone who took part seemed to have such fun, I thought we could revisit them :) Have fun!<div>
And I certainly did. This card is made with the Gelli Plate in a new favorite color combo of mine. And again I used this awesome stamp from Kate Crane, he is just the cutest. The text was computer generated.<br /><span style="background-color: #fafafc; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, san-serif, Roboto; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px;"><br /></span>

First I choose a color scheme and pick different mediums with these colors. That could be stains, acrylics, ink pads, sprays, neo colors and acrylic inks. I also use a lot of stamps and stencils. Than I just play :-)<br />

This week's challenge is hosted by Magda:<br />
I like using shapes in my projects especially circles. They can give interesting effects on projects depends in what way they are used. I would love to see circles on your creations. How you will use them, depends on your imagination.<br />

Happy Stampotique Day!!! This week the challenge is hosted by Arwen:<br />
Anyone can do a square card. I like unusual creations and would like to see other card types this week. Enjoy the implementation and I'm curious about your art works.<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I kept it simple with a folded tag card and a cute little envelope. The tag and postage stamp are made with TH dies. The envelope is made with the WRMK Envelope Punch board. All are sprayed with Dylusions.</div>

I can't believe it's been two weeks since I last blogged. But today I'm here with a new challenge for you hosted by me:<br />
<div>
At first I was a bit afraid of these intense neon colors, but after using them I really began to love them. They give your work such a nice "pop". I challenge you to use at least one neon color. Can't wait to see your eye popping work :-)</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I did another Mark Making page and used some neon orange acrylics, ink, sprays, stencils and a lot of stamps.</div>

This art journal page was made with the Gelli Plate and I used a new Stampotique stamp from our new designer Kate Crane. Love her, she is such an inspiration.<br />

This week the challenge is hosted by France:<br />
<b>We often expect cards on our birthday. How about surprising someone with an unbirthday card? With or without Alice in Wonderland inspiration, make a happy unbirthday card!</b><div>
<i><br /></i>I already had an idea in mind which stamps I wanted to use, but had no color inspiration. So for this challenge I did another color search on google (love google hihi) and choose this colors as Alice in Wonderland. Not my typical color scheme, but I like it. I used Dylusions, Distress Stain Spray, Distress Ink Pads and MFT Die-Namics.<span style="background-color: #fafafc; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, san-serif, Roboto; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px;"><i><br /></i></span>

Each week they give an art challenge and an journal prompt to inspire you. I bought a Dylusions journal as they suggested, but didn't use it till recently. Maybe it was my fear of working in a bound journal. I always felt, that if one page was a failure, my whole book was one. Since Life Book I became more confident, if I don't like it I just change it, you always have gesso ;-) So I started, and so far so good. I don't use DLP anymore for documenting my life, I use my Midori planner for this and combine it with Life Book.<br />

She stimulates the advanced to make their own Red and so I tried. I think she came out lovely. But I sooo love the style from Marieke, just have to make another one someday ;-) It's so cool to make a painting that really tells a story, I don't do that much.<br />
Like I said, she teaches you to look for your own Red and Big Bad Wolf (or you can copy her) and she goes step by step through the process of making this painting. And she makes the best videos I have seen, just eye candy and fun to watch.<br />

A new challenge brought to you by Sue:<br />
<b>Ever since I was small I've loved the colour yellow and the rest of the citrus colours. They are just so fresh and always make me feel happy. So this week I want you to use citrus colours and spread the happiness!</b><br />
<b><br /></b>
I googled a color scheme and decided to work with this one. Really love a color challenge, maybe because colors makes me happy too :-D I used my fingers on my Gelli Plate and made a journal page.<br />

Such an awesome teacher <3<div>
This year I will do the Life Book lessons on a smaller size paper and put them in my (Midori) journal. I loved the Documented Life Project last year and I'm combining their format with Life Book. So the tip-ins are the Life Book lessons and inside I will put photos and ephemera of that week.</div>
