Mama Elephant Merry Mail

I started my card by planning out where I wanted the elements to go and worked out I could fit Santa writing in the sky with the sentiment and an elf parachuting down as well as a few pieces of mail floating around too. With the plan in mind, I used the Clouds For Days stencil from Simon Says Stamp and Surf Blue ink to blend a cloudy sky background. I then stamped the ‘merry’ skywriting in Versafine Onyx Black ink and a few snowflakes again in Surf Blue ink.

With the background planned out, I turned to the sweet images in the Merry Mail set and stamped Santa, the elf and the mail in Intense Black ink and coloured with Copic Markers before adding a few Stickles accents.

I added the characters to the background with foam adhesive and then mounted the panel to a white card base. I scribbled a red marker on a scrap of card and stamped the coordinating greeting from the Merry Mail set in clear embossing ink before white heat embossing. I then added this sentiment piece to the card with more foam adhesive and finally added a sprinkling of sequins.
