Welcome Fantastic Stampotique Design Team!

I have used the Stampotique Quail cube for my creation to welcome the new Stampotique design team. What an awesome team. Wow!

I love these Quail birds. They are so sweet and full of character. I love their quiffs as well. The way in which I have used them felt as if they were greeting each other with a French welcome kiss on each cheek. So I created a card using the Welcome sign cut out of the door stamp which I hung above them.

I have recently been playing around with acrylic inks to create my own backgrounds. I am thoroughly enjoying this process.

I liked the card so much I decided to upgrade it and I had the perfect frame in which to place it after distressing and painting and rubbing and painting etc, until I was happy with the look. And because the quails are kissing in welcome I added the Mwah! stamp and added 3 golden kisses by the side, which I gilded

So here is the upgraded card!
