2021!

...happy we got here...

Let`s see what the future brings.

Don`t panic, stay calm, don`t take anything for granted, don`t take yourself too seriously!

We have to laugh and enjoy the moment and we have to believe that everything will be " fine" again!

I made this page will my Stampotique stamps, joining the current SDC 365 .

Cant help myself from loving those weird faces ; Leeta,, Kopf and Jillian.

I stamped the background with the Squares from Terri Richardson, decorated the heads with the hats from Penney&Torrente and painted with different Distress oxides and inks. 

Dies are all from the swedish company Gummiapan.

Wish you all another wonderful January!

SDC 286 Nature

The latest challenge at Stampotique is all about nature.

I made this picture thinking about the beautiful leaves falling this time of the year. I also thought about friendship and how important it is to spend qualitity time together. The days get shorter, colder and darker and I love this cosy time with my friends when we all have to get closer to keep warm...

I used my beloved Stampotique stamps;

1. Magda`s reindeer
2. Magda`s Mr Owl
3. Penney-Torrente`s Dog Cube
4. Penney-Torrente`s Two Sticks

... and a clear stamp from WOW, called Flights of fancy .

Happy autumn to you all!

SDC281 - background love

Last week Stampotique Designers Challenge asked for backgrounds and here is my take on the theme.

 My favorite background stamp right now is the "French journal page" by France Papillon. I just love the clean lines.
I also added some washi tape to underline poor  Twinkie `s struggle as Daniels  tree hopper goes crazy in the back..

Not a lot of colors this time , just the way I like it right now...

Celebration for SDC 277

Cant help myself - just LOVE these images!

SDC 152 and Q&L challenge in one go

The DT at Stampotique Design Team challenge asks for something sentimental this week. So I combined it with the Q&L challenge, where the word this fortnight is either proud or vintage,

I used 2 gorgeous stampotique stamps (by Magda Polakow and Jill Penney) together with another "de stempelwinkel" stamp. The background is gesso, paper, texture paste and distress inks.

The words "be with someone who is proud to have you"  - found on Pinterest...

Hope you like the page!
