Stampotique ATB


Over at Stampotique this week they have a theme of boxes, so I went for another ATB which stands for Altered Trading Block just in case you were wondering!


I used various shades of blue and purple gelatos to colour the box and the background panels.


Stamped the various Stampotique images onto the square panels and added background stamps using black archival ink. 


Flicked on white paint and added some doodling with the white Posca pen.


Chose a relevant sentiment for the top and added some ink splats.
