Hi All!
I’m using my Mama Elephant Page Huggers again today. I love these cute critters! I stamped them very simply and colored with Copics. You could dress it up a bit by adding glasses to one of them and maybe a heart or two in their hands.
This card is for Courtney, whose nickname is Coco. With the Neat and Tangled Journaling Alphas, the banner fits up to 5 letters comfortably. You could use LOVE for Valentine’s Day, MOM for Mother’s Day, DAD for Father’s Day… you get it.
Here is a close-up of the coloring:
You can use this card for pretty much any occasion where you celebrate a person – birthday, congrats, love, or even thinking of you.
Enjoy the video!

This is such an adorable card. I’m sure both Courtney and Kara will love their cards too. I really liked the way you coloured the bear’s arms. It gave them so much dimension. I can hardly wait to CASE it. This may even end up being the card for my husband’s birthday next week!
