I'm so excited I'm just about wiggling!!! Last night Katarina M's gallery introduced me to Plum Purdy Designs which is mainly folk painting patterns but they do have some stamps. Here is Katarina's adorable pizza box. Plum Purdy Snowman Mini Pizza Box Set by KatarinaM at Splitcoaststampers From reading her info I googled the site and got this FREE pattern from ultra talented and generous designer Renee Mullins. Yup, I had to trace it onto watercolor paper with graphite paper and go from there. I wasn't sure I could do it, but I had a great color photo to copy from and am sooooo pleased with how it turned out. It was colored in multimedia--inks, markers, watercolor pencils and embellished with white gel pen. I don't have a camera and my pizza box won't fit in the scanner so I am just uploading the topper .

SO adorable! I have been a LONG time Renee Mullins fan and have many hand-painteds (mostly wood) from her patterns. Her stuff is the best! You'll be addicted!

Really neat , Michele! I love Renee's work. I used to paint and I think I have all her books! I hope she does more in rubber stamps! This guy is so cute! Great coloring!

I too have been a long admirer of hers. I love this guy. Her stamps are wonderful. Maybe if we all bombard her she will start creating more stamps. Love your use of her image. You did a fantastic job. Hope santa brings you a camera. It is so much easier. Hugs...
