Hi there! I’m back again with Mama Elephant highlighting the Botanical Hello stamp set.I thought it would be fun to show the contrast of how this image looks when colored with two different mediums. The above card was embossed in clear onto watercolor cardstock and colored using Zig Clean Color Markers & the one below was colored with Copics. Such a fun comparison!
The Zig Clean Color Markers are super fun to color with. I took a light gray Copic marker and added a very subtle shadow along the inside of the “hello” just to make it a little easier to read.I added a thin mat of black cardstock under the white panel to give it some contrast and popped it up onto a white card base.

Mama Elephant-Swashy Letters
January 19, 2017Hi there! I’m back with Mama Elephant highlighting the fun new Swashy Letters stamp set.I used the new Favor Bag – XL Creative Cuts to create a little valentine for my Emma with some Pink Fresh pattern papers. The Swashy Letters are so fun for customizing all kinds of projects.
I added an image from Otterly Adorable set. I tucked a felt heart in the otter’s arms that was die cut using the Otterly Adorable dies.

Mama Elephant-Just a Note
January 18, 2017Hello there! Today I’m joining Mama Elephant as they highlight the Just a Note stamp set along with the Zipper Creative Cut.To create my card I first stamped the large Just a Note sentiment with Memento Tuxedo black ink. Then I embossed the Organic Blooms in clear on the corners of the panel. I stamped one more Organic Bloom onto scratch paper to create a mask that I layed over my embossed blooms and blended in several Mama Elephant pigment inks.
I also embossed a sentiment from Just a Note on my card base and die cut the Zipper Creative Cut in place so that you could reveal the secret message by “zipping” it open. So fun! To finish the card off I die cut the whole panel using the Femme Frames and added a few black splatters with my Gansai Tambi paints.
