Mama Elephant Stamp Highlight | Playful Pups Trio of Cards (video)

Today the Mama Elephant Design Team is showcasing the new Playful Pups Stamp Set, Playful Pups Creative Cuts Dies, and Grassy Trio Creative Cuts Dies. I created a trio of polaroid framed up cards with these adorable stamped puppies! The Polaroid Fun Creative Cuts Dies make the perfect little mini framed up scenes!

I used the large A2 sized cross-stitch frame from the Sew Fancy Creative Cuts dies to die cut the background from smooth white cardstock. 

For the polaroid frame, I die cut one frame from smooth white cardstock and one from SSS Black Cardstock using the Polaroid Fun Creative Cuts Dies. I die cut second frames from the white cardstock and die cut the squares using the Grassy Trio Creative Cuts Dies.

On the white square from the inside of the frame I applied Mermaid Lagoon Distress Ink with the Mini Ink Blending Tool and dripped water over the surface for a distressed look. For the grassy borders, I applied Shabby Shutters Distress Ink and Mowed Lawn Distress Ink. 

I stamped the puppies and accessories from the Playful Pups Stamp Set with MFT Black Licorice Hybrid Ink and colored in the images with Copic Markers. I die cut the images with the coordinating Playful Pups Creative Cuts Dies.

I stamped the greetings from the Playful Pups Stamp Set on the bottom of each polaroid frame with MFT Black Licorice Hybrid Ink and stamped paw prints on the frames and backgrounds using MFT Wild Cherry Hybrid Ink.

I assembled the scenes in the polaroid frames and "taped up" the frames with washi tape to finish the cards.
