You don't have to be an artist to do a little creative embellishment for a stamp set. Case in point: this great stamp of a cat tangled up Christmas lights - all drawn in a loose sketchy style.

If there was ever an example of something anybody can draw to further a great idea, it's gotta be this stamp's Christmas lights, right?

My sentiment was really sticking out like a sore thumb until I decided to draw a few squiggly lines with some tiny rectangles followed by some ovals. Upon looking at it further, I realize that I stopped too early, perhaps. I could/should have drawn that strand right down to the cat's tangle. 

So go for it! Draw a simple "addition" to a stamp set and see if you don't feel right sharp!

Thanks for stopping and have a blessed day!
