Original Stamp Illustration: Turtledove from Song of Solomon

turtle-dove-framed

This is the first of (hopefully) a few digital stamps I’m making for Valentines day. As you may know, Song of Solomon is a love story and it is full of allegories. Think of this verse as a description of the passion between King Solomon and his new bride. I’ll let your imagination take it from there.

I added a little whimsy with the turtle shell in place of the wing and the fun girlish font.

It was stamped in Photoshop on a digital distressed white “paper” and then printed out on cardstock. I then colored it with Copics.

Next I cut a frame with my Cricut, using a design from Stretch Your Imagination. I used Coredinations cardstock, distressed it, then backed it with a Basic Grey distressed white (which matches the digital paper in the illustration.)

I would love to hear feedback on my first digital stamp design!

    I love your digital stamps, not sure how you make them or what it actually is. But they are fantastic…all of them.
