MAMA ELEPHANT - JOLLY BALLOONS

Hello! I have a new card to share with you, featuring Mama Elephant's stamp Jolly Balloons. This festive set features mylar-style balloons that spell out holiday favorites like Holly Jolly and FaLaLaLaLa. Perfect for adding a playful, celebratory touch to your holiday cards, party invites, and scrapbook projects, these balloon sentiments bring instant cheer and sparkle to your creations!

I started by stamping the festive words and images from the  Jolly Balloons set using Shachihata Black ink. For coloring, I reached for my Kuretake Gansai Tambi watercolors in Cadmium Red, Yellow Ochre, and Sap Green to give everything that classic holiday vibe. The cute little puppy was colored with Copic markers, while the yellow gift box was done with a Tombow ABT brush marker – 991.

Once the coloring was finished, I used the coordinating Jolly Balloons Creative Cuts to die-cut all the images. For the card base, I layered the In Stitches Cover Creative Cut in the background and added the Five Window Frame Creative Cut as my panel card.

Finally, I assembled all the pieces together, arranging the sentiments “Fa La La La La,” “Holly Jolly,” and “Be Merry” into the windows, along with the little gift box, stars, and the sweet puppy popping out of the present.

I just love how this layout makes each element shine in its own window—clean, festive, and so fun for the holidays!
