Country Rooster Set

Tweet

Hi again!

I have another style of card to show you that is done with my Rooster Sunrise" stamp set that will be available November 1st at Clear Dollar Stamps.

I used lots of Kraft paper and some Natural Jute String from Really Reasonable Ribbon to top off that "country" feel.

Check out all of the colors of Jute String here. It is a great way to add country charm to any project!

Scroll down to yesterday's post to see a different card done with this stamp set.

Hello Again!

Today I have a card to share that is done with my latest illustration for Clear Dollar Stamps. It is called "Rooster Sunrise" and will be available November 1st.

That pretty ribbon is Really Reasonable Ribbon's Sheer Iridescent Parrot Green.

The background is watercolored on watercolor paper, then I offset a square Nestability cut it out, then popped it up backed by a piece of brown cardstock. Another trick I used on this guy was using a white gel pen for the highlights on his feathers.

Other girls that did a sample with this set are:

CDS Sneak Peek ~'A Cuppa Kitty" ~ Another one of my Illustrations

Tweet

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.
