visual image stamps - caterpillar

Hello

Something completely different for me. I saw this stamp by Visual Image stamps, couldn't resist it. So quirky.
 I bought it along with the Cheshire cat, both inspired by the Alice in Wonderland story.


This sample has been stamped onto a wooden oval plaque and uses the words in the set.

I did a background using real ferns and green Versamagic inkpad as this dries well on the wood.
The caterpillar and words were stamped with a Brilliance inkpad and clear embossed. I coloured with watercolour pencils. The caterpillar was then glazed with glossy accents.
I was really pleased with the finished result.

My second version is stamped onto a 15cm.  Artcuts, wooden heart. Again I used real leaves to do the background.
The saying is one I found on the internet which I thought was quite appropriate.

I used a red and a green, sparkly gell pen,  for some of the colouring on this one, to give it a lovely shimmer.

Thank you for visiting and I hope you enjoyed this stamp as much as I have.
There are other characters on the Visual Image website too, but I particularly liked this one.

Bye for now
