Hello All!
Today, I have an exciting post! I get to show you another one of my stamp illustrations that will be available for purchase at Clear Dollar Stamps on July 1st. The set is called "A Cup Full of Happiness" and comes with the image plus several different sentiments.
This is such a fun stamp to color. I have done it in several colors to look like all of the kitties in my life. This one looks like my cat Nother, who was the model for the stamp. I will show you another version on Saturday.
I colored the kitty with Prismacolor pencils and watercolor pencils, then paper pieced the cup and saucer. I then added some UTEE to add some shine.
Remember...you can click on any picture to enlarge! ;)
The beautiful ribbon and bow are from Really Reasonable Ribbon.
It is their Olive Wrinkled Ribbon.
Please check out the other girls who are sneak peeking this image today.
