New Arrival Elephants with Deborah

New Arrival Elephants with Deborah

Hello all, Crew Member Deborah Hellman here to share with you a super cute baby card using the New Arrival Elephants Stamp Set and the Oh Baby Baby! Pattern Paper.

For this card, I first selected my patterned paper. The Oh Baby, Baby! Patterned Paper Pad has such cute papers, it was hard to pick only a couple. I will definitely need to make some additional cards.

Next, I sketched out a cute design that would give me some vertical lines with some added shapes for interest.  I rummaged through my stash of dies until I found a couple of cute shapes and a vertical border that fit my vision.

Once I had the shapes cut and the layout complete, I stamped out the cute elephant and selected my Copic marker colors. I always swatch the markers out to make sure I like the combination and blends.

Copic Marker Colors Used:
R:000, 00, 30, 81, 85  RV000  W:0, 1, 2, 3

When I stamped the sentiment, I knew the alignment would be a little tight. So, I cut the shape first, then placed the die cut back in my stamping platform with the negative to hold it in place. This method allows me to make sure the sentiment is centered and fits my shape (see photo below).

Finally, I added a few embellishments  and a bow to draw your eye around the card and complete this sweet card.
