Some exciting news

Hello everyone!
Today, I want to share some super exciting news with you all, which I've been wanting to share since I got to know about it myself. It was SO difficult to keep it within. I'm so very honored and thrilled to be part of the new Lil' Inker Designs Color Team. Thanks Laura, for the wonderful chance to be working among all the talented ladies! :)

For the announcement, go over to the Lil' Inker Designs Blog to meet the new team!


Laura has put together a special assignment team to promote the 2 Cute Ink stamps. We'll be releasing 3 new sets soon, which are adorable and soooo cute!! But that's not all: there will also be a brand new stamp line with a new illustrator and you're going to love them too!
Head over to see the current sets in the Lil' Inker Designs shop.
For lots of inspiration, visit the Lil' Inker Designs Blog, the Facebook page and the flickr gallery!

Now, for all my supportive friends and followers, I think you ROCK! All your comments and kind words keeps me motivating and inspires me to keep creating. So, here's something for you all!
I created a set of cards *fur* you, keeping the same stamp and layout, but all images are colored using various mediums.I used similar colors to color so you can see the difference between each medium.

I used watercolor pencils and Distress Inks + Perfect Pearl on the flowers.


 Colored this image using Prismacolor pencils and blended with odorless mineral spirit.


 This is colored using Copics.

Isn't this little kitty cute? I must also tell you that it's a great quality clear stamp which gives a crisp, clear impression. The first two Pattern papers are from Basic Grey (Indie Bloom) and the third from My Mind's Eye (On the Bright Side)

Thanks for being here to celebrate my happy news!!!:)

PS. I have a challenge at Yvonne's blog - you can win a 15 $ gift coupon for the Lil' Inker Shop too.
