A hearty welcome to SanDee&amelie's challenge blog!

Please, note, that this challenge blog is not related to any business and run without any profit by people, who do this for your and their own leisure time fun! Our only reward are your encouraging comments and your playing along and sharing steampunk fun and mixed media techniques. We appreciate every single entry and comment so much! Thank you for taking the time!

If you are new to this place, please, know that we are so glad that you stopped by our little steampunk corner!
Whether you are a dedicated tag or card maker, art journaler or mixed media lover - this might be the right place for you!
For more information about the rules and the little "steampunk/industrial twist" we ask of you, please check the "about" stuff and then simply jump in and create!

If you are new to steampunk and not sure if this is "your thing", maybe take a look at our winners gallery on pinterest (use the linking button on our side bar). You will find that we're mainly a mixed media challenge blog with a little twist towards steampunk, industrial and/or vintage. So why not give it a try?

We are looking forward to seeing your fab projects entered to one of our challenges soon!



Hugs,

We are happy to have you here with us, and just want to say how truly amazing your entries have been in our challenge. The team is in awe of the wonderful talent you share with us here! We hope you and your loved ones are well. It's been such a difficult time around the world, that you might feel like we do...the time to create is special and brings us some balance, so we hope you find that time this summer. 

Our SUMMER SPECIAL is a two month challenge, so you have July and August to work on your creations and enter them here. It also means you can enter FIVE times! So, put on your top hat and talk to your steampunk muse and start creating. 

Our theme as usual is...

ANYTHING GOES in Steampunk and Industrial mixed media.

I know you will be inspired by the wonderful projects from our design team, so here we go...

She used a liquor bottle as her base







created this wonderful beach themed tag with some lovely stitching





made a Victorian style jewelry set for an upcoming mystery dinner event. 
She will be playing the chambermaid of the murdered lady 
and swears by the sake of her beloved parents that she is innocent....
well, well...





and I, Maura
