For my cousin Dolores who is having a kidney removed due cancer, I couldn't believe how much this cool stamp resembled Dolores and her sister Rosemary when they were little girls. It is a woodmount stamp from Cool
Cat & Kitten Products and can be found at Catnews.org which helps feed and shelter homeless cats. I use dsp for bg and shiny gold paper from JoAnns for the frame, cut with a nestie.. I started out with chalks, went to colored pencils and ended up brushing ove all colors with blending pen and diluted inks.. tried to sponge blue then vintage photo to make the image look antiqued. the flowers are made with punches.

This is such a beautiful vintage image of the little girl with the kitten. You have coloured it in such lovely soft colours - gives it a aged look. So very pretty.

This is just precious! That portrait is so sweet...I'm sure your cousin will love getting a card that resembles her as a child. Your framing is lovely.
