Little Elephant baby cards - GDP206

September 15, 2019
gdp206.jpg

Little 3x3 love notes are the perfect sized card to attach to baby gifts. Such a nice size for a small present and easy to make! It seems like I have so many friends having babies lately. These cards have come in handy!

Funny enough, I used this GDP206 sketch to make these cards. I’m playing along this week instead of designing for the Global Design Project. I was a little late getting my projects posted. OOPS!

Last night to play along. More info on the Global Design Project Blog.

Little Elephant - TGIFC171 - Color Challenge

August 3, 2018

YAY for Friday! We've got a color challenge going on for TGIF Challenges, a little So Saffron, Poppy Parade and Pacific Point. I decided to use these colors to create a child birthday card with the Little Elephant bundle of products. I paired these products with the Balloon Bouquet punch and am super please with the results. This is a fairly simple card and would be easy for you to recreate using any colors.

I created my own patterned paper in the challenge colors using the long border stamp from this set. I needed patterned pieces large enough to punch out a balloon using  the Ballon Bouquet punch. I stamped the board image 3 times and allowed it to overlap a little. Notice the card base?  I used the same stamp image  to create a pattern for the card base in Gray Granite to add a little visual texture.

The background is a simple watercolor block using a lightened version of Pacific Point and applied with an aqua painter. I was hoping to evoke the look of a little bit of sky.

The design team over at TGIF Challenges has loads of inspiration for you using these color. We would love it if you visit and PLAY ALONG with us. Ready? Happy stamping! #TGIFC171

One color wonder - I stamped the little birdie image on coldpress watercolor paper in Golden Glow ink and then pulled that color through the images with a water brush. I love easy technique to quickly add color. Bird image & sentiment are from the Cutest Crew stamp set. #stampinup #cardmaker #cardmaking #cardmakingreels #cutestcrew

Golden Glow. I'm going to try to create a series of one color cards using the new Stampin' Up! InColors. Today I'm showcasing Golden Glow. This new color is a soft warm light gold. It is a calming color and I think it is very a nice addition to the yellows. Those cute bird images are from the 'Cutest Crew' stamp set. Need a reason to make? We have a animal theme @global.design.project #gdp551 Play along with us this week! Looking for more inspiration on this Monday? My Monday Montage friends are sharing a bunch of fun new ideas.

Punches for the win. I needed a graduation card so I used two punches from Stampin’ Up! To create the graduation cap. The cap tassle is created using baker’s twine. Modern Oval & Tailored Tag punch. #useyourstash #graduationcard #cardmakingreels
It's been weeks since I created a card and it felt good to sit down and make something. It's graduation season and cards are needed!  I pulled together a few punches and the Bordered in Beauty bundle to create. This card works for two challenges this

I pulled together a few punches and the Bordered in Beauty bundle to create. This card works for two challenges this week. I'm playing along with @tgifchallenges color challenge using Night of Navy, Granny Apple Green and Smopky Slate. The card layout was inspired by the challenge sketch for @global_design_project #gdp550 #stampinup #cardmaking #graduationcard
