Mama Elephant-June Stampede

Welcome to the Mama Elephant Design Team blog hop!

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


My project features the Garden Frame stamp & die set.Mama Elephant-Garden FrameFor the background I adhered several strips of solid colored cardstock onto a panel and then ran the panel through with one of the Basic Rectangle dies.
Mama Elephant-Garden FrameI colored the Garden Frame with Copics and used the Garden Frame coordinating creative cuts to die cut the window opening for the sentiment. I also used a white gel pen to add a few highlights to the flowers.

    Lauren, what a lovely rainbow background which I know you love but what I love about it is that I could use up beautiful scraps of coloured card stock to create this background too (me being frugal with my craft stash). The frame of flowers is beautiful and the simple sentiment in the centre just completes the design. Gorgeous Lauren as always. :O)
