Sneak Peeks Start Today!


This is the first of the sneak peeks for the JessicaLynn Original stamps that will be released on February 1st. I'm so excited to be a part of this and, starting today, can share with you my creations. I was sent the Yorkie stamp set to play with and I'm having a "doggone" good time. There will be a HUGE launch of 10 new sets, so please bookmark JessicaLynn Original and visit often, particularly on February 1st. There will be special deals to be had and I don't want you to miss out on anything.

We don't have Target stores up here in Canada and one of my Shackie friends, Teresa, sent me some of these cute little mailboxes. I decided that one of the first things I would do with my JessicaLynn stamps would be to make a mailbox for this Little Princess to receive her own mail. This is a close-up view of the front. I used the gorgeous new paper from Basic Grey called Two Scoops. I love the colours and designs so much I bought two packs. And, they serve this Princess well. This set reminds me so much of my sister's dog. Sassy is not a Yorkie, but she is a Princess and is definitely treated as such.

I used my Copic markers for colouring this image. I don't have a dog, only a cat, so maybe the ears shouldn't be quite this pink, but I'm going to see if I can find someone with a Yorkie to study their colours. But, then again, these are fun images and don't necessarily have to be coloured in a realistic manner. Besides, Princesses can do anything they want, right?

Barb, adorable! Very cute stamp, and you did a great job altering this little mailbox. I wouldn't worry too much about Yorkie coloring; I think of these designs being whimsical which gives total creative license to the artist. Thanks for sharing this great project!
