Welcome back to Day 2 of the Mama Elephant Design Team blog hop! We are celebrating 8 years with a fantastic new holiday release along with our amazing friends! So join us with some free goodies and our annual sale!
Hi there! Today I’m excited to join my old pals, Mama Elephant to celebrate their 8th Anniversary! I always have a soft spot for their adorable designs, and I’ve created a couple of projects featuring some of the new, September release.
This first card features the Gingerbread Cookies stamps set. I stamped the images with Memento ink and colored with Copics. For the background I adhered skinny strips using the Quick Stripes Creative Cuts. I LOVE these skinny little stripes.
That’s not all! To celebrate this special Anniversary release, Mama Elephant is giving away ten $25 gift certificates to our store!!! That is 10 winners!!! Winners will be chosen at random from the collective blogs in the 3 day Stampede. You have up to 4 chances to qualify to win! » 1. Leave a comment on this blog post «
Laura, you’ve ONCE AGAIN showed me things I NEED in my stash! LOL LOVE the little Letter Board Creative Cuts Die! HOW ADORABLE is that??? AND you’ve done a BEAUTIFUL JOB with the multi colored stripes background too on the other card with the Gingerbread Men! A SUPER JOB, Laura!!! ;)<3
Wonderful cards. I also have a soft spot for Mama Elephant’s adorable designs. I really love those cookies and your background “stripping” (sorry, I couldn’t resist) is perfect!
Such sweet cards! My mouth is drooling, just looking at that plate of cookies and remembering the joy of baking Christmas cookies with family and friends.
So, so cute. I like the way the soft pastels add to the innocence of the little creatures. I think my favorite is the milk and cookies set. Just adorable!
Happy 8th anniversary MaMa Elephant! Thi releas is so stinkin cute! I loe the pastel take on this usual red and green world. I’m thinkin home schooling has influenced these choices a lot. I just love your cards, gonna go back and find the video if there is one.
What darling cards! Sweet scene with the bunnies on your letter board card, and the gingerbread cookies card is just adorable! Pretty background with the colored stripes!
I always enjoy seeing your creativity. And I love how you always incorporate a rainbow in your projects & the card with the gingerbread people cookies is brilliant!
Awesome, your colouring is fabulous on both designs & those mini stripes are so cute, must look up that die set. Great to see the shaped card & how versatile this month’s release can be after all a stamp set is for life not just for xmas x
Watched your family ink blending on youtube. Funny video (but momma seems stressed 😉). Kevin is a natural—hard to believe it’s his first attempt! I must say, I love your videos from Germany. But I do miss traveling and seeing friends there.
