Adorable Mama Elephant!!

Hey everyone!

Hope everyone is doing well...

I have a bunch of cards to share with you today.

I ADORE Mama Elephant! They manufacture one of the cutest designs ever! I was SO happy that Shalini thought of getting these darlings to the store!

All the cards I share today use two stamp sets from Mama Elephant-

Make a Wish and Bountiful Blessings.

The very tiny flowers and leaves in the Bountiful blessings set were too irresistible to ignore. I had to make two cards using those beauties.

To make this card, I randomly stamped the flowers of different sizes in different colors, then stamped the leaves and flower clusters and finally some tiny, super cute hearts. Framed the sentiment stamped on a piece of PP on a black card stock piece.


For the second card, I stamped the tiny flowers and leaves randomly in different colors and made a background. Isn't that pretty?

Stamped the sentiment on a piece of patterned paper and layered it on a piece of black cardstock to make it stand out.

The next three cards are messy! Or should we say 'artsy'? ;) 

I inked the top part of the water color card stock panel with Peacock feathers, Dusty Concord and Picked Raspberry distress inks. and sprayed lot of water and let the water flow down. I dried the water with my 'Heat it!' tool. Stamped the beautiful, bold sentiment. The tiny stars in the set are so inviting that I had to stamp them in different colors!


The last two cards are almost the same involving simple emboss resist technique. I heat embossed the sentiment in clear (on the violet card) and white (on the pink card)  After heat setting, sponged the same Peacock Feathers, Dusty Concord and Picked Raspberry distress inks and sprayed water. Took colors from the distress ink pads with my water brush and colored in the loops of the letters. I then stamped the stars in different colors (added ink splatters on the last card)  and they are are done!




I hope you are inspired enough to make something this weekend. If you create something using the showcased stamp sets, be sure to leave a link to your blog post in the comments and I'll come visit you to see what you have created! :)

Take care everyone! Bye for now!
