Its time for a new challenge at Stampotique Designer's Challenge blog and the theme is POLKA DOTS!
I decided to use my FLAMINGO stamp to show how, when I designed it, I envisaged she could be used as well as using it as a stand alone image, which will perhaps explain why its so large.
The woodblock mount of the Flamingo measures 3" x 5.5" !!( and so therefore is perfect to carry a number of Stampotique characters on its back. :) Ones that could perhaps look great having a ride are Moon Girl, Stella, Dance Party Break Up, Wicked Witch, Chessy, maybe even Polka Dot Dog (perfect for this challenge but I dont have that stamp sadly) and RELAXIN..(which I used on this occasion. Pretty much anyone can sit on the Flamingo with a bit of clever scissor work :)
I began by using sequin waste as a stencil and blended distress inks through it to add the dots to the background, then piled on the watercolour, finishing with a few dots of white pen and black biro around the drawn frame.
This Polka Dot challenge lasts for two weeks...hope to see you there!! x

Oh my word, I love how you have combined these fabulous images...delightful. Thanks for the inspiration. I now have so many ideas. Fabulous background for this gorgeous duo!
Oh Jo, I love ♥ this.. xxx
Everyone should be able to sit on a flamingo at least once in their life! (I hope that isn't animal cruelty).
Love this, pairing them up seems the perfect marriage.

It's funny you know, because I've always loved your flamingo, but unfortunately I don't have it yet.. Still on my wishlist, at the very first place maybe. Even more now!
Thank you for this wonderful make to my eyes. :) Xx
