Art Journey is the most specialised but above all the cosiest (online) StampStore in Holland. The Website has 3 different languages and so therefore is accessible for everyone. Service and quality are very important to Louisse for her store. Visit the online webstore through http://www.artjourney.nl and you will see lots and lots of yummie stuff that we crafters really really need (LOL).

Art Journey offers a wide range of goodies for all crafters.
Besides lots and lots of common craft products, they also have their own stamps! How fantastic is that eh???
If you have the opportunity to visit the Store in Sleen (in the Netherlands) then Louise and Liesbeth will be very happy to say Hi to you during a workshop or in the store itself. So don't hesitate and come on over to the online webstore or to the store in Sleen and you will find lots of yummie stuff.

Now for my pics there are only 4 (-:

I bought this at Christmas from Wilko's I altered it before I thought about taking a photo, so I turned it over & put the original bow back in place so you have a rough Idea how it looked before I sanded the birds down to colour them in Promarkers & add the flowers and follage.

This is where I'm challenging:
