Super quick today. Another fabulous sketch at Freshly Made Sketches and this week’s designer is the lovely Narelle Farrugia. My two boys have been home from college (their fall breaks shared a weekend) and while they were here I had a request to create a birthday card for a friend. Can’t say no to that!!

I had the Meowgical stamp set in my workspace from last week’s card and he told me that I should use it. Specifically, to create a black and white tuxedo that looks like a specific kitty. Oh, and the kitty actually has a little cape that is purple as a costume! I colored over the tabby markings with my Black and T8 Comics and created a tuxedo face with a pen. My “muse” has a black and pink nose so yeah, definitely had to do that!

I chose some papers from the Spooktactular Paper Pack (Honey Bee Stamps). I inked on a little bit of Villainous Potion) to get the purples to match a bit better. When I tried sticking just to the sketch, the kitty was kind of just floating so I added a green circle to help ground him a bit. I thought a little bit of black metallic thread would be a nice touch too. I hope the lad’s friend likes it (but Nate is sure he will).

Hope you’ll have fun with this sketch and that you’ll join us in the gallery. Have a great rest of your week and see you soon!
