STAMPlorations and Freshly Made Sketches


Hello there!  Freshly Made Sketches have reached their 200th challenge, and STAMPlorations is one of the many sponsors for the challenge.  I've created this snazzy little number from some of the images in my newest set, The Bee's Knees Party Dresses, which you'll be seeing plenty more of in the coming weeks - this is just a taster ;)

Here's the sketch for the challenge.  I flipped the sketch so that the smaller section was at the bottom, and stamped the DNA stripe stamp across the bottom of my card panel using a palette of Distress Inks in blues.  Then I stamped the images to create the tailor's dummy and dress, sloshed some colour on and added lots of splatters.  I repeated the DNA stripe pattern around the base card to tie the two layers together.


You really don't want to miss this milestone challenge, because there are so many sponsors!  And that means lots of opportunities to win!  Get on over there to see all the fabulous inspiration, then get creating :)
