      No, the Prima stamp is the background text. The cat stamps are by a company called Hunky Dory - I found this set on ebay (uk)

    My sister would love the cat stamp. I hope there are some left! At first I thought the watercolor was a paste because it went on so smooth. Thanks for all your great videos!

    I searched eBay and rubber stamp sites and can not find that stamp. Can you help at all?

      Sorry I can't, I bought the stamp set some time ago, perhaps it's now discontinued - If I see it again though, I'll let you know :-)

    Rachel, I've missed you! Thank you so much for sharing your amazing talent. You have inspired me since I found you on YT. I have watched most of your videos several times and used to catch your live Ustream shows when I could. You convinced me I could be creative and for that I am eternally grateful. It opened up a whole new world for me. Thank you and have a great day. -mary

    PS: Like a lot of others, I'm now searching for that adorable set of cat stamps. I love my Tigger girl and am always on the lookout for cute kitty stamps. =^..^=

    Love your tag (the colors are so vibrant). l too would love to find the cat and tree stamp-no luck Googling it. I can't image such a cute stamp would be discontinued.

    Those cat stamps are no longer being created. :( Can't even find them for sale using google. Checked ebay in the States and UK. Nope. Will have to lie in wait for them to pop up because I MUST have them. I LOVE this tag. Just absolutely love it. I have cats, my aunt has cats... we need to make some fun things with these stamps!!!
