Mama Elephant Stampede!



Welcome to the Mama Elephant Release Design Team blog hop!

The newest release is now live and available for purchase in the store!
www.mamaelephant.com


I created a card with three of the new stamp sets. It features Freestyle Florals plus stamps from Zenith Borders and Bear Hugs. 


I started by die cutting a white mat from Femme Frames. Next, I stamped the flowers and leaves from Freestyle Florals in several colors of pigment ink. I sponged a few coordinating colors around the edges. Next I die cut a tag from Tags a Lot. I didn't need the entire tag so I used the Femme Frames die again to trim off the top which added the stitched border. 


I stamped the sentiment from Bear Hugs and the branches from Femme Frames. The card was finished with my favorite background from Zenith Borders.

This is a knock out release. I know you'll love it!

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 !
