Do judge a book by it's cover!

Hello all and welcome to our latest challenge! 

It's Lula here as the host this month. Reading books has been my favourite activity  
ever  since and I am also addicted to altering ordinary items surrounding us.

That is why for this challenge I'd like you to alter any book cover.

Creating an altered cover is something anyone can do because your only limitation is your own imagination. 

You can use any type of books from children's books, magazines or user manuals to art journals.

We look forward to seeing how you interpret this theme.

As always you can use any mediums, materials  etc. just don't forget to use stamping and/or stenciling and join us in the fun!

April Challenge Trash to Treasure

Hello ! It's Autumn here and I'm your host for the April challenge. Don't we all love a good upcycled project?  This month at Stamps and Stencils we'd love to see how you take something that you'd normally discard and give it new life in your art.  Whether it's glamorizing boxes, turning Styrofoam into stamps, diecutting your packaging, or another idea you have.  Bring on your best mixed media repurposing!  We can't wait to see what you come up!  Don't forget to use stamps or stencils in your project.

Take a look at the design team's fabulous Trash to Treasure projects to get you going.  All details of the projects can be found on the artist's blogs, so click away!

Cec creatively altered some floppy disks.

Branka chose to alter a vintage spoon.

Ruth altered a tiny sweet tin.

Rachel altered a Ferrero Rocher chocolates box.

Sue saved a presentation box from work that was headed for the bin.

Toni says, "It's surprising what you can do with tea bags and tomato paste tubes!"

Autumn altered the cover of her cardboard junk journal and added a juice can lid.

So now it's over to you !
