Lots O' Birthday

Happy Thursday everyone! I'm on a roll with Birthday cards and only have a few more to make. Both of these cards took me under an hour to make thanks to some fun animal stamps that provided all the inspiration I needed.

I used two new products in this card that I love love love! The owl stamp I picked up at AMuse back when I had my class a few months ago. Aren't they the cutest? I also used the new Fiskars border punch. Scallop borders are still my favorite but this new punch is simply fabulous!

Materials: Hero Arts Stamp (Raindrop Background), AMuse Stamps (Happy Birthday MA, Owl Buddies), Fiskars Border Punch, Hero Arts Buttons, PrismaColor Pencils.

I had fun with several patterns on this card. I've been in to thin strips of paper and setiments on tabs lately, can you tell? :)

Materials: Hero Arts Stamps (Sending Happy Thoughts, Live it Up, Raindrop Background, Screen Shadow), Hero Arts button, PrismaColor Pencils, ColorBox Chalk Ink.

Thanks for stopping by! Have a great day!

Mama Elephant March Stampede!

Welcome to the Mama Elephant Release Design Team blog hop! Our newest release is now live and available for purchase in the store! www.mamaelephant.com I am so excited to share the new stamp set Ella & Friends with you! There are so many fun images to choose from in this set that all centers around the BEST elephant stamp ever. ;) I started my scene by stamping the elephant, then I masked in the bunny and bubble blower. Finally, I stamped the bubbles, puddle and splashes. I was SO fun to create. I colored the images with Copics and added a little ink to complete my scene. I trimmed it down to fit inside of the Instalove Creative Cuts and stamped the sentiment. I know you'll agree that stamping this set is super fun but first...
