Clowns- funny or scary???

What do you think? I think they're kinda scary, but a bit funny at the same time, which is why it sort of fits to make this Stampotique boy into a clown, complete with red nose and clown hat.


The challenge at the Stampotique Designer's Challenge blog is humorous birthday. I hope this qualifies......I suppose it depends on your stance on clowns, I guess!


He's coloured with Promarkers and the background is one my son made by dripping spray inks. I wrote the Happy Birthday in to fit the space on the cat's back.

I'm also entering this into the Play Date Cafe challenge where the colours are 

Slime Green.....Frightful Fuschia...
Putrid Purple...Black as Night

  4. Yah - if they're wielding a machete, I'm going to plump for the scarey opinion. Otherwise I think general clown scareyness is bred into girls somehow and it makes me cross. There, a bad tempered opinion, huh! Meanwhile - I love the card!!
