A VALENTINE MONTH CHALLENGE


Stampotique Challenge! SDC 86

I have never shared here a challenge from a website with which I am not associated, but I have found one that is pretty simple and is a month-long challenge. You can read all the details here and join in the fun. I suggest this challenge for two reasons: one, it involves only colors and a stamp (does not have to be from Stampotique); second, I think the stamps sold on this website are top quality, have character (I have used one of their images on my journal page), and are reasonably priced!


If you have never created anything before, pick some red, pink and white paints, papers and/or inks and have a go at this.  You don't have to create an art journal page.  It can be a scrapbook layout, a card, even altered art!  I have been challenged and created an art journal page which otherwise would most likely not have happened--and, frankly, I like it! Its a "valentine" creation that is not full of mush and love, but of reality!


Thanks for stopping by and much joy to you!

  6. Kay, I look in my inbox everyday with great anticipation for your blog post. You were the one who initially motivated me to try journaling. I am still hesitant, but so much more adventuresome. I have even joined a group of ladies in a nearby town to journal and just "play"! Thank you so much and keep the creative motivation coming!!!!
