Shamrock Sammie

Here's one of the newest stamps at Queen Kat.  It's just in time for St Patrick's day.  Designed by artist Sandra Caldwell, this image is called Shamrock Sammie.  Doesn't he look great with gold paper and gold embellishments?  I used warm grey and dark green copic markers to color him.
Be sure and check out all of the other wonderful stamps from artist Sandra Caldwell at Queen Kat.

Today's prize will be picked by Queen Kat!  Drop by the Queen Kat store and let me know which artist there is your favorite.  I have several at that store that I love!! In addition to Sandra Caldwell, I am a HUGE fan of Myka Jelina, Creepie Studios (Kristi Silvia), Kathy Cyr, Jaz Higgens, Capt Frogger...so many fun artists there....

Cheers, Holley

    Very cute card. The gold really makes the whole thing pop. I love it. Sandra has some really cute stamps. There are alot of wonderful Artists over there....It is really hard to choose my favorite though. I like so many of them. I can tell you my top 2 are Miss Meg and Vicky Mycock. Love those tigers.

    He is great! Sure does get me in the mood for some green beer, well, maybe not (I am not a beer drinker) but I sure can feel it. I also am a Sandra Caldwell fan.

    Hi Holley, that is one laid back leprechaun. What a fun image. Wow, there's a lot of artists and a lot of rubber over at Queen Kat. Lots to like but I pick Carrie Hawks, especially that Bast Goddess. Love those big eyed cats.

    Lovely! Like the gold embellies. I visited each & every artist. Liked many of them, but as I'm not much into coloring, I loved all Crystal Moore's Chakra Medallions,followed by Vikki Douglas' Magical Flowers then Miss Megs Tribal flies. All great for mass stamping.

    St. Paddy's day is my 2nd favorite holiday so I LOVE this image and card! It is so hard when you ask for a favorite because even if I don't like a designers style, I still always learn something from them! But, because you asked (and a chance to with some great stuff, LOL) I will have to say Miss Meg.
