Stampotique Challenge 88 - Text All About It


Kim is the hostess this week on the Stampotique designer Challenge, and we are asked to use text on out creation.


I have chosen to use the little monsters from Line up this week, along with a bit of text from an old book.

You can now use any stamps for the Challenges, but only one entry per person for each challenge. Two lucky people will be drawn from all the challenges for February who will win a $30 voucher to spend on Stampotique rubber. So make sure you go over to the Stampotique Designers Challenge Blog to enter.

Stampotique Rubber Stamps are available to buy from Stampotique originals, and in the UK you can buy them from Happy Daze.
