Believe it or not this is the first time I’ve played with this gorgeous Mama Elephant set since buying it several weeks ago!  I know – shocking!  I just wish there were more hours in the day!  At least I’ve managed to ink it up now!  I used some woodgrain cardstock from Simon Says Stamp and added some stitched detail using one of the AHHH-MAZING new dies from the latest Avery Elle release!  I coloured the little critters from the Three Amigo’s set and attempted to add texture using Nichol Magouirk‘s (and several others) dot technique – I love how it worked – particularly on the raccoon!

Me friends

 

I used a little Avery Elle Linen ink under the critters to ground them and stamped the little greetings onto their flash cards (adorable)!

So now it’s YOUR turn, Happy Crafting

A new video – pop up tutorial

Hey there. A few weeks ago I shared a card for the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge using some gorgeous Mama Elephant stamp sets and Doodlebug supplies. As promised, I made a video and it’s up on the Simon Says Stamp blog today.

And here’s a reminder of the card:

I had so much fun creating this card – as soon as I saw the In My Heart stamp set from Mama Elephant, I immediately envisioned this little girl popping up out of the cupcake (from Carnival Cupcakes, also by Mama Elephant).  I had to practice a few times to get it right but once I had figured out the logistics it all came together perfectly!  I thought the Doodlebug Springtime paper pad with all of it’s gorgeous happy colours and patterns would be perfect to use on this card and of course the sprinkles are just the icing on the cake (literally!!!).  Just pull up the candle and out she pops – love it!
