    Creative Challenge - Final result by Nikki Cogley, Theme: Owl, group 4

    Thank you so much for setting up the creative challenge and allowing me to take part. I really enjoyed the theme as I'm secretly in love with owls. Having a theme and the deadline and being able to see all the other groups and their creative process really gave me a boost and the motivation needed to get back to crafting and creating.

    Creative Challenge - Final result by Malin Zedigh, Theme: Owl, group 4

    Creative Challenge was a very good way for me to push myself to be creative in my free time again.Having a very creative and demanding job, my own projects outside of work often get forgotten. This was an opportunity to reign in the work-portion of life a little and actually spare time, energy and creativity for my own project.

    Creative Challenge - Final result by Maria Dahl, Theme: Owl, group 4

    First of all I would like to thank Petra and Fredrik for a fantastic well organized and cozy competition! When I saw the first participants and their creations, I became very interested and curious, they seemed to have so much fun. So when there were places left to participate myself, I had to take a chance even though I have never done this.

    Creative Challenge - Final result by Hanna Gunséus, Theme: Hare, group 3

    Listen! I think i might know who’s been eating from the birch trees in Helsinglight forest. Did you ever hear about the time hop hare? The legend tells that it was the fastest hare there ever were, so fast it eventually managed to run faster than time itself! But just as surely as decisively as the sun sets every evening, time can only go forward and so the time hop hare was stuck in the future!

    Creative Challenge - Final result by Clara Lindberg, Theme: Hare, group 3

    So, I rarely finish my own projects. With too much time and too many ideas you just get lost in all the bog of potential. So, the most fun part about this challenge was to, well, challenge that! Not the competition aspect itself, but to challenge yourself in using a (for me) new material, a set theme and a deadline.
