My Message

Hi Everybody! I'm still here...no baby yet. :) Its been a few weeks since I've submitted a card for the Hero Arts challenges so I decided to get at least one more in before the baby comes. This weeks challenge is to create a card with your own message.

I used my Basic Lower Case Letters to create the celebrate message. I may get a little bit more creative in making my own message later this week if I have time but "celebrate" is one of my favorite sentiments so it worked well for this card.

After I created the card I decided it needed a little something extra so I added Diamond Stickles to the buds on the leaves of the tree. Just a little sparkle. :)

Materials: Hero Arts Stamps (Basic Lower Case Alphabet, Creative Trees), Hero Arts Buttons, White Pen, ColorBox Chalk Ink, String, BoBunny Paper, AMuse Paper, PrismaColor Pencils.

Mama Elephant: November Stampede!

Welcome to the Mama Elephant Release Design Team blog hop! You should have arrived here from Geralyn's blog .  The newest release is now live and available for purchase in their store HERE ! The release is another knock out hit! Each stamp set is amazing! Today I'm featuring Cross My Heart and I sneaked in a few of the other sets too! ;) I started my card by die cutting the stitched index card . Then I cut out the window  which is designed to open. (cool, right?) I wanted a frame for my window so I die cut the window again and trimmed the side before adhering it to my index base. Then I backed my window with some cloud patterned paper for my outside sky. Next I stamped and die cut the cats from Purrfect Pair. I have had SO much fun with these cats. After adhering to cats to the window sill, I stamped and fussy cut the heart balloon. I tied some black floss around the balloon and adhere it to the kitten's paw. Finally, I stamped my sentiment. I...

Mama Elephant: October Anniversary Stampede!

It's Mama Elephant Birthday Stampede time!  This is so awesome, right? I'm so excited you've joined me from Stephanie's blog! Today I'm a sharing a lot of stamping goodness! Now that I'm counting, my card uses 4 new Mama Elephant stamp sets ! This card all started with the sentiment. My kids are always buzzing around the house singing and one of their favorite is Everything is Awesome (Lego Movie anyone?). :) I started with a faint pencil line to create AWESOME from the new Block Party Letters . I colored them in with Copics and then did some creative masking and stamping from Happy Everything to add the beginning of the sentiment. Next I stamped the penguin and hat (from the new Artic Penguins ), colored them and die cut them for a perfect cut. The soft, grey striped background was created using the new Boutique Borders . All stamps and dies can be purchased NOW at the Mama Elephant store HERE . Next up? The very talented JJ Bolton !
