Paper Smooches: Sugar Rush

Summer stamping is so fun! I mixed together a few sets for this fun card. 


I started by stamping and die cutting the cat from Nine Lives and colored him with Copics. The popsicle was stamped and die cut from Sugar Rush. To create the two toned color I masked the edges and the angle with post it tape and then blended in ink. The background was a also blended with a few masks and ink to create the beach scene. The hill was die cut with Stitched Dies and adds more dimension and fun to the card. I finished it with a few embellishments, a sentiment and paper from Crate Paper's Poolside collection.

A very sweet (pun intended!) card! And a wonderfully simple layout that could be used with a variety of sentiments.

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 !
