Mama Elephant Stamp Highlights Yummy Snacks


 Hello crafty friends. Today is the last day of a stamp Highlights from the Mama Elephant June Release, and today we are featuring the cutest Yummy Snacks. I absolutely adore these cute critters with all the delicious treats and had to use them all on one giant slimline. 

I stamped and colored all of the wonderful large images using bright happy colors. Then, I die cut them all using the coordinating dies. I made the slimline scene by cutting out the Slim Comic Strip  slimline die 3 times, then glued them together. I adhered the die sit strip to a gently inkblended background panel that I splattered with white and iridescent ink. I arranged the images in and around the scene, and finished it off with a heat embossed sentiment strip. I love how the Star candy looks scattered around like confetti. 

I hope you like this nice big scene, and take the time to see the rest of the incredible projects from the Design Team. Thank you for stopping by,

Hello crafty friends. Today, Mama Elephant, is highlighting the beautiful new scripty stamp set called Follow Your Dreams . It’s such a wonderful large size that it fills up the majority of your cardfront and Creative Cuts perfectly cut it out, even the teeny inside pieces that are often an eyesore.


I used gold embossing powder with this stamp set , and layered it above a dreamy blue in blended background that I die cut with the Galactic Cover Plate. I surrounded the day, cut sentiment with some adorable Little Agenda Unicorns , and a rainbow. To finish it off, I stamped one of the inspirational sentiments on the inside of my card.

Mama Elephant Stamp Highlight Boxed Drinks


Hello Crafty friends! I’m back with another Stamp Highlight for Mama Elephant Stamps, and today we are featuring Boxed Drinks. This adorable set has 2 different juice box shapes and several cute critters with fruit, and the coordinating dies ar perfect for making shakers. 


I just loved the little milk carton shaped box so much that I couldn’t help but make a strawberry milk themed card.  I put a pair of cute cows and a hamster up front with some pink strawberries, and arranged everything onto some grassy layers over a bright inkblended sky. I embossed a white sentiment from the set, that I combined with some Lucky Alphas  creative cuts. 


I finished this off with some playful patterned paper and a few little puffy clouds from the Little Agenda Airplanes stamp set. I hope you like this sweet little card and take the time to check out the rest of the talented Design Team projects for more inspiration for the Boxed Drinks Stamp set. Thanks you for stopping by, Davina

This camping themed set is perfect for making outdoorsy scenes. It has so many cute critters and  includes a campfire and tent.

Mama Elephant Stampede

 


Welcome to the Mama Elephant Design Team blog hop!

Our newest release is now live and available for purchase in the store!

I’m so honored to have been invited to join the incredible Mama Elephant Design Team for this term. The June release is full of wonderfully cute illustrations and innovative dies. The card I’m sharing for the Stampede features the new Pop Up Trellis Bloom and the new Banner Greeting dies. 

I loved the idea of creating a window flower box with the pop up portion of this die set. I backed the window pane with a golden inked panel, tucked my garden into my widow box making sure it could all fold flat, and added a sweet pair of garden gnomes from Little Gnome Agenda stamp set.

I adhered my widow upon a brick stenciled background and finished it off with a pink die cut banner from the new Banner Greetings set. I just love the Gnomeo and Juliet vibes the little balcony scene is giving and hope that you enjoy it also. Please hop along to see see all of the incredible inspiration.

Pretty Pink Posh June Release Blog Hop

Hello crafty friends! Davina here with some incredible new productsfrom Pretty Pink Posh. The new June release is bursting with sweet juicy fruit. And not just regular fruit, but super cute stamps, dies, and stencils that will always be perfectly in season! 


Some of my favorite products are the strawberry themed items. I couldn't wait to use the adorable berry carton in the Fresh Berries Stamp Set. I decided to make a lush boxcard using the Scallop Boxcard Die Set and filled it with grassy layers and stamped images. 


Although it’s not very visible in the photos, I used the new Layered Strawberry Stencils to create a dreamy pink and green background for my boxcard. I gently splattered the paper before using gold embossing paste for the seeds. Next, I assembled the boxcard, creating 3 grassy inserts and adding a 4th little layer of grass behind the very front piece. 


I stamped the strawberry strip from the Fruit Borders Stamp Set in layers to make a sort of patterned paper. I die cut the little scalloped panels for the boxcard, and colored it in with shades of pink and green to match my card. Then, I stamped the leaves and basket onto colored cardstock with matching colored ink. I combined those large images with copic colored berries and sweet little bees from the Bee Friends Stamp Set


I tucked my images throughout the layers, and adhered the little bees to acetate strips for a floating whimsical look. Finally, I finished off this cute little card with a heat embossed sentiment from the Fresh Berry Stamp set. I really love this soft pink basket of berries and hope that you do too. Thank you for stopping by and make sure to hop along to see the inspiration from the Design Team,
