Peace, Love, and Joy
Good morning! Jess here with a Christmas card featuring new stamps and dies from Mama Elephant and my all-time favorite Mama Elephant set, Arctic Penguins!
Aren’t those penguins adorable! I thought they’d be perfect to decorate my Christmas tree! I started by stamping the tree from O’ Tiny Tree with copic friendly ink and then I colored the trunk with copic markers. I stamped the greenery with Altenew inks before adding the string of lights. I colored the lights with copic markers, added a glow around each bulb with a very light shade of copic marker, and then covered each light with glossy accents.
Once that dried I stamped the sentiment from Merry Woofmas with Altenew ink and then started working on my penguins from Arctic Penguins. I masked off their ice skates before stamping them on my card panel. I colored their beaks and feet and then added the star to my tallest penguin. I colored the star with copic markers and added spectrum noir sparkle and glossy accents over the star. To ground my scene I die-cut the Union Square Frame Cuts with red cardstock and adhered it over my card panel.
I love combining old and new stamp sets to create new scenes and Mama Elephant’s older sets coordinate PERFECTLY with their new sets! Thanks so much for visiting and have a wonderful day! 🙂
