Make Your Mark

A lovely client of mine, Carol, for whom I've done color consultation for throughout her many renovation projects as well as site specific artwork for her home; approached me to create a stamp for creating personalized cards and gift tags. This was to be a gift for her friend, Jayne. I also happen to know Jayne really well too. Funny enough, she recommended me to Carol as a color consultant. The image was to be a portrait of Jayne's dog Stella.

She sent me a photo of Stella;

I did a drawing that could be translated into a one color rubber stamp:

Carol then sent the image off to a maker on Etsy. This lady has a shop where she sells her handmade rubber stamps either from designs that you send her or her own.

This is how the stamp looks on card:
