Christmas in July #8 - Mama Elephant Cool Penguins

Hello!

I am back for day 8 of my personal #christmasinjuly2025 cardmaking challenge. I used products from Mama Elephant to make this fun card.

I started by using the Spellbinders Scallop and Stitched Edge Ovals dies and my Sizzix Big Shot and magic mat to cut an oval from Bee Inspired Watercolor paper. I then used my MISTI and the Mama Elephant Cool Penguins stamp set to stamp an adorable penguin and sentiment on the panel using Altenew Obsidian Pigment Ink.

After the ink dried, I used a number 2 round brush and Grabie watercolor paints to paint the scene. Specific colors:

• Grey

• Black

• Orange

• Alizarin Red

• Dark Green

Once the paint was dry, I found a fun patterned paper in my stash and glued everything to a white A2 card base using Art Glitter Glue.

That's it! I hope you enjoyed the card and are inspired to create.

Happy crafting!
