Baby Elephant

I love this sweet baby elephant from Eureka Stamps.  This card fits 3 challenges:  Eureka Stamps Challenge - Baby or Pregnancy Card,  CASual Fridays - to stamp of dp and CAS on Sundays - Pastel Pretties.

 
The elephant was stamped on dp then colored with Tombow Irojiten pencils and white gel pen added to his tusks and toe nails.  The b-a-b-y was stamped on the same dp.  Spellbinders dies used for the banner and the circles, circle punch used on the letters.  A piece of green washi tape and light blue baker's twine was added to anchor the baby banner.  Popped the elephant up on foam tabs by Tombow.

Celebrate

Using the color challenge from The Play Date Café

 
and the Double Washi Challenge from the Washi Up Challenge
 
 
 This is based on Julie Ebersole's card from Ellen Hutson's The Classroom.  Used washi tape to make the single chevron and a different patterned washi tape for the strip on the bottom.  Stamped the star with Palette Raspberry Fizz and cut it out and stamped the sentiment in the same ink and punched out with the word window punch.

Quilted Baby Animals

Playing in a couple of challenges:  Eureka Stamps Challenge - Animal Catwalk and Tombow Blog monthly challenge of tic-tac-toe.

 
For the tic-tac-toe I used Tombow Foam Tabs, Mono Multi glue and Power Tabs.  The baby animals stamp is by Eureka and colored with Touch Twin Markers, cut out, then embossed with an embossing folder for texture.  Adhered onto die cut ovals with Foam Tabs.  Punched heart and glitter on elephant's toenails and little heart on giraffe adhered with Mono Multi.  Added a couple of strips of washi tape across the base layer.  Adhered the animals on the layered ovals to the background layer with Power Tabs.
 
Thanks for dropping in!
