Stampotique Challenge time!

Snowy Fran by Daniel Torrente for Stampotique
Chilly, French Text, Hearts Cubed by Jo Capper-Sandon for Stampotique
Splatter by Carol's Collection for Stampotique
Ink sprays by Dylusions  

I have decided to put my 'Bah Humbug' attitude to one side for this challenge, because Jo has come up with a really great Christmas challenge for us all this week.... we have been challenged to 'wrap those last minute gifts in a Stampotique way'. Fab challenge!

I drew a pyramid box template onto white card, sprayed with 3 shades of Dylusions inks, and then stamped French Text and Splatter (with Archival inks) to add some pattern and texture. I added a snow-person to each side of the pyramid, and then I gave Snowy Fran a heart hanging off her little twiggy arms LOL! 

Come and join this fun challenge. All the details can be found on the Stampotique Designers Challenge blog. Come and play!

  4. I love the little hearts at the end of the ribbons Kate! What a great touch. As you know I'm a little mad about Christmas and I think this box is glorious, so much attention to detail, and it shows. The red looks really festive against the snow people. I like it LOTS and LOTS! See putting aside the humbugness has proved to be very positive! :) Michelle x
