Mama Elephant Stamp Highlights Little Capybara Agenda

 Hello crafty friends. Today we continue the Stamp Highlights for Mama Elephants latest release. Today we are featuring the Little Capybara Agenda stamps and dies.

 


The agenda sets are always my favorite as I love adding a ton of little images to my cards. I used the Six Window cover plate for the base of this card, that I inkblended and backed with printed tropical paper. Then, I created a grounded layer to set the scene. I used the cutie capybaras and added some tropical leaves from The Wild Roar stamps as accessories. I then added some little grass and more capybaras to each window. 


I finished up this card with a banner across the bottom stamped with one of the sentiments from the Capybara Christmas stamp set. I hope you take the time to check out all of the Design Teams inspiration for this cute set. And thank you for stopping by,

Mama Elephant Stamp Highlight Holiday Huggers

 Hello crafty friends! As the Mama Elephant Stamp Highlights continue, today we are featuring Holiday Huggers Stamps and Creative Cuts. This adorable set is especially cute with the chubby little critters and all of the items they can “hug”. The die set is great because it cuts out the hands to let the accessories tuck under.


I wanted to use all of the images from the set on my card. So I used the Comic Cover CC for the layout. I backed the frame with some teal holiday paper, and arranged a critter in arch section. I adhered some contrasting paper in the center space and popped up a fancy embossed sentiments from the Make it Merry stamp set.  


I finished this card off with some sparkly green jewels. I hope that you take the time to check out all of the inspiration from the Design Team. Thank you for stopping by,

Mama Elephant Stamp Highlight Decorate the Tree

Hello friends. We are continuing the Mama Elephant Stamp Highlights for their 11th anniversary release. Today we are featuring the stamp set Decorate the Tree and creative cuts. I adore this set so much. The big tree is wonderful for surrounding with the cute characters and adding the garlands. 


I stamped my images and colored with copic markers before cutting out with the coordinating dies. While planning my scene, I decided on some festive foiled paper as the background. I cut a snowy hillside to layer on the bottom half, and used the new large Marquee Letters creative cuts to spell out Jolly on the bottom with gold glitter cardstock. 


I thoughtfully arranged my colored images as the focus of my scene and added small white highlights and glittery Wink of Stella to some of the images. To finish this off, I added two word bubbles from Let’s Chat Creative Cuts and the tiny typed sentiments are from an old set called Let’s Go Caroling. 

Please head over to the Mama Elephant Blog to see all of the incredible inspiration from the Design Team. Thank you for stopping by, Davina

Mama Elephant Stamp Highlight Wonders of Winter

Hello crafty friends! Mama Elephant is celebrating their 11th anniversary and today we are featuring the Wonders of Winter  Stamps and Creative Cuts. This background stamp set is especially lovely to help create the background of any scene. It features some snowy hillsides, a trio of birch tree trunks, and a little cabin on a hill. 

I wanted to make a winter pond scene, and I thought the snowy hillside would be perfect to create a snowbank. I stamped the snowy hillside and colored it with COPIC markers. After die cutting, I rotated it upside down and layered it over an aqua inked panel that I would as my pond. I gently inked the new sky portion, then splattered with aqua ink. Next, I heat embossed the birch trees with white embossing powder on kraft cardstock and layered the die cut tree trunks over my inked pond. 

I stamped some adorable critters from the Snow Friends stamp set and arranged them onto the scene after heat embossing a holiday sentiment from the same sentiment into the sky. I centered my scene onto some plaid paper and finished it off with a few glittery snowflakes and a pair of little fluffy clouds. 

I think this set is very versatile and I hope that you head over to the Mama Elephant blog and Instagram feed too see the incredible inspiration from the entire Design Team.

Mama Elephant Stamp Highlight Capybara Christmas


Hello crafty friends. I’m so happy to be a part of Mama Elephants spectacular 11th birthday celebration release. Today we are kicking off the stamp highlights with the Capybara Christmas  stamps and Creative Cuts (CC). I really think this set is so cute and I especially love that they are themed with Christmas accessories making them perfect for fun and playful  holiday cards.



 I combined these adorable images with the new Sweet Shop Frame CC that has the sweetest tiny scallop edge detail, a candy mint and a set of tags. I also added a layered bow from the Mini Bow Box CC set. 

After stamping out the images I colored everything with COPIC markers and cut out using the coordinating Creative Cuts. I added small white highlights then adhered them onto my Sweet Shop frame that I cut out twice and glued together. I arranged the images towards the bottoms so my embossed sentiment would be visible. Then I added my pink inkblended bow. I finished this off by layering over some bright plaid-like patterned paper and adding few star sequins.
