Unforgettable jungle birthday | Mama Elephant

Hello there! I am back with an interactive card! Yeah! I tried the new 'wiper surprise' die from Mama Elephant and gathered some lesson' learned ;-)

So first I diecut a piece of white cardstock with the wiper surprise die and folded it along the scorelines. I used scattered straw and dried marigold distress oxide inks to blend some color. Then I stamped the on of the beautiful 'wild meadow' borders with Memento tuxedo black ink and colored it in with green Copic markers. I also colored some images from 'little bunny agenda' and 'little monkey agenda' with Copics.

I used the wiper surprise die on the wild meadow border (but the other way round) and then I trimmed down the ink blended cardstock because the wild meadow border is a bit smaller and I didn't want the cardstock to be larger.

 I used the small straight interactive die from the siper surprise set on this card. So I colored in an additional monkey from 'stackable cuties' and and adhered it on the wiper piece.

Lesson's learned: Due to the narrow front (wild meadow) only the small wiper piece was possible all the other would have shine through. In addition, it is a bit harder to fold the monkey away because it get stuck on the narrow meadow border. If it was higher it would be much easier but I like the result anyway :)

I stamped the sentiment from 'Ella & friends' with green ink and added a little balloon from stackable cuties also in green. Then I adhered all the other images and the front piece to the card.

Here is also a small photostory for you:

Sorry for my reaction |MFT Stamps

Hello everyone! The 'cute chemists' set from MFT stamps is so adorable, I love the different sentiments included in the set. Since I am not so used to coloring with colored pencils I challenged myself to use Prismacolors on today's card.

First I created the fun background by sprinkling some Nuvo shimmer powders on watercolor cardstock and adding water to it. I love to let it air dry because I think it looks more natural this way. Isn't it awesome how the powder reacts with the water? Perfect for this card :-)

I used the second largest of the 'single stitch line tag-corner rectangle frames' to diecut the paper. I also diecut 4 white frames with the die which I stacked together.

With two stamps included in the cute chemists set I created the background on a white cardbasis. I used a grey ink for it and colored in some of the hearts with Prismacolor colored pencils.

I stamped the sweet chemist and colored it with the same medium. After diecutting him I could assemble the card. I adhered all the pieces onto the white cardbase and added the sentiment on a strip of white cardstock which I adhered with foam tape.

To wrap things up I created another short photo story you can watch here:
