Happy Anniversary Mama Elephant!!
This release is super SPECTACULAR and I was so happy to work with the Cool Penguins stamp set! The set comes with the most adorable penguins getting ready to wrap some holiday gifts. I used the Basic Rectangles die set to create a window opening as these penguin friends are going to wrap their gifts together. I also really adore the sentiment that comes with the stamp set.
I wanted to keep the coloring super simple on this card and used a few light colored Copic markers. My favorite Copics are the ones that end in 0000 and 000 because I can achieve a light almost watercolor look.
Here are the colors I used:
B00, RV02, RV23, YR00, YR000
To finish off the card I wanted to add the star banner from the Sentiments from a Yeti stamp set, its one of my all time favorite stamps. The set also comes with a banner that is oh so cute. I love stars on a background and used the Lots of Stars Creative Cuts die. I ink blended the background with Tattered Rose Distress Oxide Ink and mounted the card front onto a blush colored card base. I like this card so much I do not want to give it away!!! Hope you give this a try.
Little Elf Agenda is next....
I love the Little Agenda Series because you can mix and match them with your other Mama Elephant stamp sets. here I wanted to add a "big" elf from the Christmas Spirit stamp set with the adorable little sleigh. The tiny snowman is from the Me and My Yeti stamp set and the sentiment is from Jingle Greetings.
I colored the images with copic markers and wanted a simple background. I used Distress Oxide ink in Candied Apple and heat embossed the sentiment with white embossing powder. Finally, I used the Lots of Stars Creative Cuts die to make a starry snow storm.
I had a blast making these cards and enjoy the rest of the hop. Scroll down to see the special promotions and links to the other fabulous designers projects!!!
