August Creative Challenge- Anything Goes

Hi!
Welcome to our monthly blog challenge!
A big thank you to everyone who joined in last month's challenge. We had lots of very creative entries, and I will be announcing the winner of July's challenge in the next couple of days.
This month the challenge theme is Anything Goes.
You can interpret it any way you like, as long as there is rubber stamping in it.

To join in with this challenge (we are limiting the challenge entries to 3 per person), is simple; all we would like you to do is, make a piece of artwork, making sure that you include the theme and some rubber stamping. Pop back here to link up using the Inklinkz at the bottom of this post, so that we can see what you've made and then, leave us a comment to let us know you have joined in with the challenge.
 As always, there will be candy for one randomly picked entrant - the winner will receive a stamp of their choice from The Artistic Stamper
In addition, you can enter the same challenge on Facebook!  
To join us on just go to our new Facebook group, and send us a request to join.. 
There will be a prize for the Facebook challenge, as well as the blog challenge!
And don't forget....if you use The Artistic Stamper stamps on your entry, you will entered into the draw, twice!
Here is some creativity for you from the Creative Team to help you get started....




Still experimenting Gelli Plate backgrounds with The Artistic Stamper's stamps, and adding people stamps on these to make different framed pictures, I made this one with the bamboo background, and then stamped Franswar as a person :



Recycled art from cardboard and matchsticks, using PaperArtsy paints, the large light bulb and 



 I created a postcard, using PaperArtsy paints as a background, then  adding Kat's Mini Houses as beach huts, and shells from Seaside Plate #1. I coloured the beach houses in with Tombo Dual brush pens.Finally a little bit of glitter to make it pop! 


 
Had a bit of fun with this one, I used a Large Matchbox, some thin card to cover, Artistic Stamper Masks, Designs by Georgina Masks, cogs background stamp, Tick Tock flowers and Phineas stamp.  All colouring is done with Distress Ink


We hope that you will join in this month's challenge, and also join us on Facebook too, and we look forward to seeing your creations. Don't forget to add a comment when you have posted your entry.
Have a creative month
Jennie
