Stampotique's New Design Team

Hello and welcome to the blog today, I am excited to announce Stampotique's new design team for July 2018 thru June 2019

First I would like to extend a warm good-bye to our existing design team. We are so honored and happy to have such wonderful ladies grace this team and we are always sorry to see them go. We wish them well in their future endeavors.
We also have a fun announcement about changes to our challenge, instead of choosing a TOP 3 for each week of our challenges, we are going to choose 1 lucky winner to be our Stampotique Facebook page group photo. That means one person will have their project be our header photo for our Facebook group at the start of each challenge. (every two weeks a new person will be chosen)
HOW FUN is that?!? You might get a chance to have your work showcased at the top of our page! YAY! 
Make sure to join the challenges in order to be eligible.

This leads us to our new team! We are so excited to have some ladies back and some new ladies joining us. 

We have a large team so take some time and check out some interesting things about our team and come back Wednesday for the new challenge.

Nellie Van Leeuwen 

My name is Nellie van Leeuwen. I am 55 years old. I live in the Netherlands with my husband and our 3 dogs. I'm a real "stamptramp". I wander from one technique, colour or stamp to the other. From cute to vintage, mixed media, whatever. I like to try everything. That's why I chose the nickname "Dutchstamptramp" . I am so very happy that I can prolong my membership of the Stampotique Designteam! I am a designteam member for quit some years now. I simply still love it so much to work with Stampotique stamps from all the different designers! Stampotique stamps really inspire me to create art.

There are no rules in mixed media or art journaling; just love what you do, be messy and have fun, there are no mistakes.

Hello Stampotique Friends,

A dream came true!

Actually, I've always been busy with paper, ink pencils, paint.....

But 5 years ago I discovered stamping and been hooked ever since.

Three years ago I bought my first Stampotique baby "Mwah and Kiss" designed by Jo Capper-Sandon.

In the last 2 years my Stampotique stamps has exploded.
