Hi there! I’m back with Mama Elephant highlighting the adorable Me and My Yeti stamp set along with the coordinating dies.
This set is so fun and certainly one of the most popular sets from their newest release! For the background I masked off a hill & blended distress inks onto distress cardstock with flicks of water. I stamped all the images with Memento Tuxedo ink and colored them with Copics.
I also added a few images along with the sentiment from the Sentiments from a Yeti set. I love how the coordinating die partially cuts out the yeti’s arms so that you can tuck all sorts of fun things in there. Lots of options for many occasions!
Check out the Mama Elephant blog to see more inspiration by the design team using this fun new set. Thanks so much for stopping by!

STAMPtember® with Mama Elephant
September 12, 2017
Hello! Are you ready for the next STAMPtember® exclusive? It’s adorably awesome!!! The next collaboration set is designed by Mama Elephant for Simon Says Stamp called Rain or Shine and I’m in love.
I am giddy over how fantastic the Mama Elephant images work with the Lawn Fawn Scalloped Box Card Pop-up die. It was like they were meant to be together!
I also used the hills dies from the Shadow Box Card die to add some grassy hills for my critters to stand on. The box is made out of Lemon Chiffon cardstock and then hill out of Green Apple.
I stamped the images with Memento and colored them with Copics. I blended Picked Raspberry & Mustard Seed onto distress cardstock for the accent panels and stamped the sentiment with Versafine Onyx black ink.
Make sure and check out the Simon Says Stamp blog for more information on this adorably sweet STAMPtember® exclusive by Mama Elephant. Thanks so much for stopping by!

Mama Elephant-Little Girl Agenda
August 10, 2017Hi there! Today I’m sharing this project over on the Mama Elephant blog featuring the sweet Little Girl Agenda set.
To begin I stamped the Little Girl Agenda images with Memento ink and colored them with Copics. Then I used the coordinating Little Girl Agenda creative cuts to die cut the images out.
I used one of the Frame Tags-Chelsea creative cuts to create the opening on Soft Stone cardstock.
For the sentiment I use one of the Trio Winow Cover creative cuts with several colors of cardstock and popped them up onto the window panel.
Sending you big, colorful hugs today! Thanks so much for stopping by!

Mama Elephant-Little Boy Agenda
August 5, 2017Hi there! Laura here and today I’m sharing another project featuring the adorable Little Boy Agenda stamp set along with the coordinating Little Boy Agenda Creative Cuts.
To begin I stamped several images using the Little Boy Agenda set with Memento ink, colored them with Copics and used the coordinating Little Boy Agenda Creative Cuts to die cut them out. I also used one of the Mini Tags Creative Cuts to die cut six colorful little tags.
For the background I blended distress inks onto bristol paper, and then I flicked on some water and diluted distress inks with a wet brush.
I popped up the cute images onto the Mini Tags and then onto the ink blended panel.
I love how the Mini Tags sort of frame the images as well as adding color. To finish it off I stamped a sentiment in the middle from Sunday Sentiments.
These sweet little faces from Little Boy Agenda never cease to melt my heart. Thanks so much for stopping by!

Mama Elephant-Favor Bag Accessory-Halloween
July 27, 2017Hi there! Today I’m sharing these cute little Halloween favor bags over the Mama Elephant blog featuring the Favor Bag Accessory-Halloween Creative Cuts.
To add some detail to the favor bags I used a few borders stamps and stamped them onto colored cardstock. I used Trifecta on the cream cardstock, Boutique Borders on the lime cardstock and Basic Borders for the purple cardstock.
After stamping the borders onto the colored cardstock I used the Favor Bag-XL Creative Cut and adhered the bags with score tape.
I added adorable faces to each bag using the Favor Bag Accessory-Halloween Creative Cuts. I created a mummy for this first one, adding googly eyes for fun.
Never realized how cute a little green vampire could be on a cream triangle favor bag:) These were so fun to make!
And lastly, a gray ghost one a purple striped favor bag.
I added some little tags using the Plushoween stamp set and the circle die from the Framed Tags-Chelsea Creative Cuts.
These little favors are definitely too cute to spook:) Thanks so much for stopping by!

Mama Elephant-Plushoween
July 18, 2017Hi there! Today I’m sharing this project over on the Mama Elephant blog featuring the adorable Plushoween set. I combined it with the Gable Box die to make a festive little favor perfect for Halloween.
To begin I stamped the images with Memento black ink and then colored them with Copics. Using the coordinating Plushoween dies I die cut each image out.
Then I die cut the Gable Box and stamped the spider web images from Plushoween all over with Versamark ink for a tone on tone background pattern. I love purple & orange for Halloween.
I also used one of the frame dies from the Gable Box die set to make a window opening for my sentiment. I added some Lawn Fawn twine and it’s all ready to fill with some candy:)
Such a sweet little pumpkin bear! Thanks so much for stopping by!

Special Spooky Stampede
July 15, 2017
Welcome to the Mama Elephant Design Team blog hop!
Our newest release is now live and available for purchase in the store!

I made three “spooky” little mini cards using the Favor Bag Accessories-Halloween & Pumpkin Creative Cuts.
I mean, I know it’s the middle of July, and I’m not even a huge Halloween type of gal, but I gotta admit, these are spooky sweet, don’t ya think? Not sure which one I think is cuter. Probably the mummy kitty:)
I blended distress inks on bristol paper for the faces of the pumpkin & Drakula and also flicked some water. I also added white dots to the eyes using a gelly roll pen.
My daughter did not approve of me putting rosie cheeks on Dracula, but I liked it and sometimes you just gotta agree to disagree. I do think the mummy kitty stole the show, though. Did I ever tell you that when I was little I had a big, black cat named October for a pet? I did, and he was the best cat ever. He absolutely loved to eat cantaloupe. That’s a story for another day.


To celebrate the new release, Mama Elephant is picking 3 winners to win their choice of stamp set! Winners will be chosen at random from the collective blogs in the Stampede. You have up to 4 chances to qualify to win!

Mermaid Kisses
June 29, 2017Hi there! Today I’m sharing this project over on the Mama Elephant blog featuring the adorable Mermaid Kisses set.
For the background I used the Hillside Cover-Creative Cut. I die cut it onto Bristol paper and blended several distress inks followed by some flicks of water. This is my first time testing out the Bristol paper. Why oh why did I wait so long? It is absolutely amazing to blend on and the flicks of water show up beautifully, too.
All the images were stamped with Memento ink and colored with Copics. Then I used the Mermaid Kisses-Creative Cuts to die cut them out and popped them up with foam tape.
I embossed a sentiment from Happy Mail in white onto a black strip of cardstock. These images are so darn cute!
Thanks so much for stopping by!
