Hello Friends, Welcome back! All this week I will continue playing along with
Mama Elephant stamps
. I'm super excited and as you can see their stamps are F.U.N. and oh so adorable!!
Before we started I want to let you know that in the next few weeks you will see a total blog makeover here at The Daily Marker. This is been in the works for over a month and I am so excited for you to see in NEW blog!! For those of you who subscribe and are getting a cluster of posts at once in your inbox .... that will change with the new blog :)
Combing my favorite things----- adorable stamp + die cuts + stencils = special card for that someone special. The most adorable bunny is from
this stamp set called, "Honey Bunny". The heart was a leftover from the card in
this post and the perfect
background stencil is a Kelly Purkey product pared with some distress ink.
NOTE: I cut the tail on the "s" and looped it at the bottom of the heart.
You get lots of depth when you color a die cut. It's super easy if you leave it in the paper. The
"Big Thanks" die cut from SSS has so many possibilities and uses PLUS it becomes dramatic when it's center stage on your card.
Keep in mind that you don't need to spend time blending. If you want you can blot some
blending solution with a rag on your coloring and the solution will work it's magic for you. Adding
glossy accents can cover any imperfections that you think you might have.
When you color over the entire area with a light color starting where the darker color meets the lighter color first you will find it blends easier. Please email me if you have any questions :)
See you tomorrow with another card to celebrate Mama Elephants newest release. Check out the other cards on the
Mama Elephant blog here. Thanks for popping in. Hugs, Kathy
