Yappy Woofmas! | Mama Elephant September Stampede

September 17, 2018

Hello and welcome to the Mama Elephant #celebrating6years Anniversary Release Stampede! The wait is finally over and I am so excited to share with you my project I made today for the big celebration. Stop by the Mama Elephant online store to see and purchase the entire release! Read until the end for amazing sales and giveaways.

Today’s card I made features Yappy Woofmas! I am totally a dog person so I was super excited to see Mama Elephant came out with a Christmas dog stamp set!

I stamped the images from the Yappy Woofmas stamp set onto Bristol smooth card stock. I colored everything with Zig markers. I didn’t really have a color palette in mind when I started. I just looked up cute puppies on Google and tried different coloring techniques to get a variety of dogs. It was so fun to see the results! After I finished coloring, I die cut everything with coordinating dies.

For the background, I kept it simple and used the new Fancy Door Frame creative cuts. It cuts out a perfect A2 background when you use the entire thing, but the door and the frame can be separated. The door opens and shuts as well but I didn’t utilize this feature today…but I will soon enough! I adhered the frame and door to an A2 cardbase and my background is done!

I adhered the images on with foam tape for dimension and added a few jewels onto the wreath for some fun shine.

For the inside of my card, I built a little scene with more adorable images from Yappy Woofmas. I inked up a little background with Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide then adhere the images with my tape runner. Lastly, I stamped a sentiment from the new and beautiful Scripty Xmas sentiment stamps. I found this sentiment to be a perfect fit with the door in the front.

That’s it for my card. Here’s a quick recap of all the Mama Elephant supplies that I used:

  40. Oh this is just so very sweet! I would like to have that Door Frame die set. How cool is it that the door can also be opened. Very clean & simple card with a certain amount of elegance at the same time.

  43. I love how you kept the colors light and pastel. So many cards have been bold and it is easy to do really deep reds, greens, and blues for holiday cards, but the light colors just gives it a different feel. It’s hard to explain. Love it!

  77. 1- What a super cute card !! I think it’s the good idea to use this Fancy Door Frame die cut as a background even without go with the opening feature. And your puppies are just adorable !! Thanks for the great inspiration. Love, Marjorie
