Hello Friends, How are you? I hope you don’t mind if I have a super quick post today.
Another day of not… so… good…. light… for… photography. These little girls from My Favorite Things are fun stamps to collect. I have some from a few years back and they are always adorable and super easy to color. This particular one is called, “Cupcake Day”
If you don’t know how to color pleats and folds (I am raising my hand) I draw a pattern to give the textiles interest.
I thought you might want to know that Purple Onion is having their Anniversary sale. Who doesn’t love a good sale right especially when it’s absolutely adorable stamps. Check it out here.
Have a great day and see you tomorrow. Hugs, Kathy
P.S. If you want to share what your creating go to DAY 1 and scroll to the bottom of the post. You will find a blue Inlinkz tab to link up your coloring.
(If you are new to the challenge or want to know more about it click here.)

I, too, love the MFT images. I have quite a few in my stamp collection. You are so correct…they are loads of fun to color. I also like to paper piece them.
Have a great day.

I’m always amazed by the way you add dimension and detail to stamps with your coloring. Love it.
Marykay says
Cute pic.
I also want to let you know that I am not going to get anything done for the next couple hours. Summertime is always busy time for me as I like being outside in the yard planting flowers pulling weed away from my flowers, watering dead heading seed collecting. Needless to say it takes away from my crafting, coloring, journaling. Also I lose track of my fav blogs and yours is one of them. I’m going to have to sit here and go through all 20 something days you have going on.
I always enjoy your videos as well.
Well I should have known a 30 day challenge was coming up.
But anyway thanks for all your great inspiration.
I have a hammock that is fixin to be put up somewhere outside and I’m gonna stock up on bug spray grab glass of sun made tea box up the markers and spend an evening in the stories of the pages in a coloring book. Never ever too old to color. Love it. Sorry for long comment. Been a while thanks

Your cupcake girl is adorable and beautifully colored! I am raising my hand with you! I love your tip to add patterns–will definitely try it! Thank you for sharing the tip!
Roxy says
So cute love the pattern on her lovely dress:)
BunnyD says
I’m with you Kathy! A pattern distracts folks from noticing there’s no fancy folds on my colouring too sometimes! Besides, it’s an excuse to add more colours!
Have you heard of any colouring books that can handle watercolour besides the Painterly Days ones? I’d love to use my watercolour pencils and water-filled paintbrush on the go like I do with my regular pencil crayons.
KT Fit Kitty says
Sweet is right! She’s adorable!
Nora says

Teresa Doyle says

Gail Plaskiewicz says
I love this stamp! I may have to check it out as I can never seem to have enough birthday anything but hey, it’s probably just me. I made a birthday card today for my ex dance teacher. We went to high school together but we didn’t become friends until dance. I even babysit her kids! Actually, I already had a card made and I had Happy Birthday washi tape so I put Happy on top of the front of the card and Birthday on the bottom and mailed it out! I love when that happens! You make a card and then find a use for it. Now I need to make one for my mom & my niece. Can I borrow your stamp? LOL
I really like the way you colored it. Everything looks so smooth and seamless. Great job!
Dot Freel says
I love the way you colored her dress and all of it!
Beverly Jordan says
I love how you colored her apron so beautifully!!
Billie A says
I love the MFT PI images.. I love what you did to the dress. I have to start thinking out side of the box. I do on some things like giving it plaids or dots but to do a whole panel on a dress is an awesome idea. Always loving what you do and those special little techniques. Thanks
Vandana Rastogi says
Wow! Such an amazing idea to modify yous stamps.
As always, thanks so much for inspiring us Kathy 🙂
Lisa T says
Yes who needs folds when you can add lovely patterns and fill them in like that!! They are really cute these little girls and so adaptable. Love your sweet colouring Xx

Wow, the shading you did on that cupcake is amazing. The whole thing is beautiful, but the little details really bring it to life.
