SDC100: Anything Goes


Happy Hump Day!  Thanks for stopping by this week and checking out what our challenge is here, we hope to see you playing along!

This is Kim here and I'm excited to get to hostess this week as it's our 100th challenge.  This week is super easy for you all-ANYTHING GOES.  I find myself creating a lot for the wonderful design teams I'm a part of but once in awhile I just like to play a bit and create for no reason at all other than to participate in some of my favorite color, sketch or theme challenges.

So create with ANYTHING in mind this week and can't wait to see!

SDC99: Summertime


Carol is our hostess this week and she's requiring some "sunshine":

"I love the summer time. I love to spend time outdoors especially in the garden where you can sit surrounded by the sights and colours of summer. I used this as my thoughts for this weeks challenge. Whether its the bright summer colours that inspire you, the flowers or just the general lazy feeling you can get from an afternoon in the garden, take this summer and make it into your own work of art.  Carol x

SDC98: Pink & Turquoise



Polly is our hostess this week and here's her challenge:

I love Pink, whether it's a bright fushcia pink or a pretty rose pink - and teamed up with Turquoise well, they sure do make a bold statement!! This colour combination creates a bright, cheerful and a beautiful feminine palette that also reminds me of the 1980's and what a fab decade that was for music!! So break out the pinks, turquoises and not forgetting a splash of black and white and join in with this weeks challenge.

We are starting a new challenge month, so please make sure you link up to the new link here.

SDC97: Trimmed Stamped Images


‘Don’t you just love all the details on Stampotique stamps? The best way to realize just how detailed they are is… by trimming them! And that’s our challenge this week: I’d like you to use (at least) 3 trimmed stamped images!

Up to you to use 3 times the same image or 3 different ones, to use them on a tag, a card, an altered object,…  I hope you find this as relaxing as I do!

P.S.: sometimes you need to cheat a bit to get all the details. You can for instance cut off some details when trimming and make them visible again by stamping directly on your piece and sticking the trimmed image on top of the stamped image.’

Sarinda's favorites for last week's challenge are:
(please e-mail khowardga@gmail.com if you would like the favorites badge for your blog)

First off I have to say there are so many that I wanted to choose. You made my job very hard to do. With that you all did an amazing job with mixing techniques and creative 3D projects. Congrats to all of you talented artists.

You did a great job keeping me entertained... I love the painted puddle under "Twinkie" with the hand drawn raindrops. Then to the sentiment... "Anyone who says sunshine brings happiness, has never danced in the rain." Well this just melted my heart.

Claudine- you inspired me to pull out the Gelli Plate and Play & Play. I love the textures you were able to get and your colors are so much fun.

Heidi- I just fell in love with your head flowers that just had me coming back for more. Truly Stampotique Style-!

Again- Thank you all for joining the SDC95 Challenge and I love seeing all your wonderful creations.

Please do me a favor and face the brilliance of your most wonderful creations and dwell on your dreams.

SDC95: April Showers bring May Flowers


Hello Sarinda here and I am hosting today's Stampotique Designer Challenge 
"April Showers Bring May Flowers". 

Springtime is in the air and I can feel it in my bones and on a cellular level. Excitement really. I am challenging you to create something Spring like. This conjures  different  images for each of us. It can be anything from rain, puddles, rainbows, clouds, mud puddles, boots, umbrella and a coat. You get my point. I hope you will have a fun, creative time with the challenge and I look forward to seeing all your wonderful creations. Happy Spring.
Much Love and Kindness.
Sarinda
