Stampotique Challenge: Funny Halloween

Happy Halloween, everyone! How exited, this is my first time to host a challenge. Okay... I hope you like a Halloween themed challenge, even if it's a bit last-minute ;-) Personally I thought this years Halloween couldn't be skipped on the Stampotique Challenge blog. There are so many fun Stampotique stamps that can be used for this theme. I challenge you to make something funny this Halloween. I really can't wait to see what you come up with! :-D

Stampotique Challenge: CASE

This week it is CASE (Copy And Steal Everything) at Stampotique. You can choose a DT member and make something in their style or make something like a DT member once did. Don't forget to give the person credit when you CASE them :-)
I chose Jane and used this technique for my card. It's the negative image of a template. I don't want to waste the beautiful spray ink on my templates, so I always use it on something else, double fun of one spraying :-)

Scraps

I love scraps. I rarely throw a failed background away. They can be used in other pages, like I did here and here. Or when I don't have much time but want to play, turn in something fun and simple, like these ATC's :-D

Stamps used:

Little Hoo-hoo

Rainy Day

Dylusions

The Ink Queen herself is challenging us on the Facebook page The Dyan Reaveley Society of Art Journaling! to use orange, a Dylusions spider stamp and the words "New Beginnings".

Art Journal Pages and Stampotique Challenge: Background

I made this background with a technique I learned at Kate's workshop, it's a really messy look and I love it :-D

These pages I made in my journal about the workshop and are also really inspired by the lovely Kate.

Inky Year Journal workshop by Kate Crane

Yesterday I had an awesome day at De Craftorij (Dutch Scrap and Mixed-Media store). I was participating in Kate Crane's Inky Year Journal workshop. It was such a fun workshop and a really cool journal to make. Here are some pictures of the journal.

I decided to make this just a fun journal for beautiful pictures of my son. It still need some journaling and finishing touches. I'm going to make a real year journal for 2013, with tabs for all the months.

Here a picture of Kate and me, such a great and sweet teacher. She was handling a class full of Dutchies full of sucker (from the M&M's) very well ;-)

Stampotique Challenge: Scrap It!

It's Jo's turn to host a challenge at Stampotique. She decided on something that she usually avoid- using photographs along side stamping. This challenge theme can incorporate your photographs in anyway possible either on a page, inside a journal, on a canvas, a mini book, an altered item...anything you wish, just as long as you are using stamping somewhere too.
So I'm not a scrapper, but love to learn/try it. Let me know what you think.
