Mama Elephant Grand Opening Stampede - Day 2!


Hi everyone, welcome to the second day of Mama Elephant's Grand Opening Stampede!

You should've found your way here from my friend Vanessa Menhorn's blog! To start from the beginning, go to the Mama Elephant blog!

Hope you all thoroughly enjoyed all the inspiration from all the amazing designers yesterday! Aren't they all super duper fabulous?

So we're a little more than half way through the hop and I get to tell you a bit more about Mama Elephant! :)

Mama Elephant was first conceptualized over a year ago but the engines didn't start rolling until I called upon my friend Angela to join me. Angela brings to the table her professional experience as an animation artist and whimsy style. Combine that with my bold and graphic tendencies and you've got a nice little mix going on! We are both SAHMs (stay at home mom) of 2 young girls. Mama Elephant allows us to be WAHMs (work at home mom) -- we feel so blessed to be able to work from home and be with our families -- all while having this outlet to share our creativity. It's funny, because both of us have turned into workaholics! I have stayed up many nights past 2am to work on designs. So addicting! And we all know it's not really work when you're having fun doing what you do!

So there's today's tidbit. And here's today card...



Simple and to the point. I used Trifecta and Good Times. Yup, this is how we do it.

Ready for more? Okay, good! Hop on over to my good friend Savannah O'Gwynn's blog, I'm positive she's got something fun going on there!

PS: Remember to check the Mama Elephant blog tomorrow, Design Team reveal! Any guesses? :)

  23. You should best proud of this stamp line you created! I am blown away by the stamps and the versatility they have. Each log and each designer has shown something completely different, even with the same stamp set. I cannot wait to get my hands on some of your sets and see what I can create! I wish you much success!
