Cactus Builder & More

Hi there! Today I’m sharing a couple of projects using some of the April release by Mama Elephant.

Mama Elephant-Grid Planter, It's Okay

My first card featuring the Grid Planter Creative Cut for the background. I die cut the Grid Planter with white cardstock and adhered it onto a Vanilla card base. The adorable images are from the It’s Okay & Little Succulent Agenda sets. For the sentiment I used the So Appreciated set.

Time to Party

Hi there! Today I have a fun birthday card to share using products from the Happy & Joyful release by Simon Says Stamp.

SSS-Time to Party, Lined Background, Reverse Yay You

To begin I stamped the Lined Background Cling stamp with Seafoam ink onto a white panel. I stamped several images from the Time to Party stamp set and used the coordinating dies to cut them out.

SSS-Time to Party, Lined Background, Reverse Yay You

I embossed a sentiment from Time to Party in white onto vellum and die cut it using a Nested Circle Die. I added a coordinating sentiment from the Reverse Yay You sentiment strips with the Sentiment Label dies.

I added a few enamel dots by Concord & 9th for embellishment. This card makes me feel like I was channelling Yana Smakula. Are you feeling that, too? Listen, I am NOT MAD about it! I think I admire her work so much that I am subconsciously channeling her😂 Could be that she, and her country, are always in my thoughts & prayers❤️
