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!
www.mamaelephant.com


Hello, crafty friends! I’m excited to share my project for Mama Elephant's June 2025 release, which includes the new Bakery Bears and Hi Sweetie clear stamp sets.
I was really excited when Angela Mama Elephant surprised me that my wish came true! Yes! I made a request a while ago on Insta, please make a bakery bear! And today, not only Bakery Bear, but Mama Elephant also releases the Little Agenda Bakery and La Patisserie!   ❤️❤️❤️ 

For this project, I created a friendship card by combining the new Bakery Bears and Hi Sweetie clear stamp set with the new Arch Shop Creative Cuts.


To start, I prepared the card panel by die-cutting the Arch Shop Creative Cuts on white natural cardstock twice and gluing them together, except the ribbon I die-cut on pink papers. I then backed it with B2B Arches Creative Cuts that I die-cut on grid pink paper. Next, I stamped all the images on Copic-friendly paper using Shachihata Ink in Brown Chestnut. After coloring them with Copic markers, I cut them out using the coordinating dies. 


The sprinkled with love is from Hi Sweetie. I also decorate the inside card with a sentiment from the Bakery Bears.

MAMA ELEPHANT - MAY2025 DESIGNER SERIES

Hi, everyone! I'm Vera, and I'm excited to share my latest project with you all! Featuring the "Congrats Graduate" and Journey Ahead stamp set, I've put together some fun cards and tags to celebrate our amazing graduates. With graduation season right around the corner, it’s the perfect time to create something special for the grads in your life! 



To start, I prepared the card panel and tags by die-cutting the Line Detail Frames Creative Cuts. Then, I stamped all the images from the Congrats Graduate set onto Copic-friendly paper using a Shachihata Brown Ink pad. I colored them with Copic markers and cut them out using the coordinating dies. I also stamped the Congrats balloon from the Celebration Balloons stamp set, colored it with Copic markers, and tried to make it look like a foil balloon.




I finished my card by adding the sentiment from the Journey Ahead stamp set that I stamped on black cardstock using the Metallic Silver Ink pad.

Last, it's tags for hanging in a flower bouquet. I have handmade crochet flowers that I ordered from a local handicrafter, and they're perfect for a grad's gift. 




Thank you for joining me. I hope you enjoy today's inspiration!


**Product uses:**
Congrats Graduate stamp & creative cuts 
Journey Ahead stamp (sentiment only)
Celebration Balloons stamp & creative cuts (congrats balloon)

MAMA ELEPHANT - JOURNEY AHEAD STAMP HIGHLIGHTS

 Hello, friends! I'm thrilled to be back to share my card featuring the Journey Ahead stamp set for the final day of Mama Elephant's May 2025 Stamp Highlights. 


Journey Ahead Clear Stamp Set is illustrated by Aida Zamora and it features a group of cute critters riding in a cheerful minibus, ready for their next adventure. The set includes a banner they can hold, perfect for adding encouraging sentiments like “Oh the places you’ll go.” Ideal for graduation, farewell, or just-because cards that celebrate life’s journeys!

I started by stamping all images on Copic Friendly paper with Shachihata Brown Chesnut Ink pad and colored with Copic markers. Below is the color list that I am using for your coloring reference. 


And here is the finish card
