Hooray

This fun little elephant makes a statement on a bold Mango Melody background. Isn’t he adorable in a field of polka dots? Stamps with faces are not really my thing. Weird I know, but the little cuties in the Zoo Globe Stamp Set really caught my eye. Logan and I have been to so many zoos and aquariums over the years that I just couldn’t wait to make some cards with this set. This one is made with a SIP Stamps, Ink and Paper for some #simplestamping.

My Thoughts Are With You

Seriously, when I look at these three bright colors together I don’t really like them, but then when I see them together with paper, inks and the beautiful Distinktive Prized Peony stamp, I love them! So bright and cheery with just enough of each color so none of them are overwhelming.
