It's all about the Squares


Over at Stampotique this week Val is asking for squares.  I masked off a buff coloured tag and painted green lines over the uncovered areas.  I've never used Claudine Hellmuth studio paint before but it really is nice.  I picked up the landscape green out the half price basket at AftH.  I stamped my new Stampotique 'oh tree' stamp in black Stazon.  I stamped the row of faces, cut them out and hung them on the tree.


I added a bit of red pepper and a coating of rock candy distress stickles.

This Stampotique tree is so amazing - and your decorations are fab! Oh.. and I don't mind at all being mixed up with Buttons - she's amazing! And those shared first four letters are bound to cause trouble at this time of the night!!

ooh i do like this and what a fab stamp that is. Love the squared effect - a bit like the alcohol ink tartan I was doing.
