New Mama Elephant Dragons!
Hi friends! Happy Tuesday! Thanks so much for stopping by our blog today! I’m super thrilled to welcome very special guest Anna Kossakovskaya to our blog today! She made this very darling card using the brand new Me and My Dragon clear stamps and dies as well as Dragon Wishes stamps and dies, and the Kingdom Trio for a background! Read on for more details and enjoy!
Hello everyone, I am so excited to share with you my new card where I played with the newest Mama Elephant products. I was so inspired by Me and My Dragons stamp set – they are super cute! And I decided to create the card with the clear front panel, where you can see the inner side of the card through this transparent panel.
I started with stamping the dragons and the tiny lady in Memento Tuxedo Black ink, coloring all images with Copic markers and die cutting with the matching dies. I then die cut the silhouettes of mountains, ancient city and the ground with the new Mama Elephant’s Kingdom Trio die.
I blended the mountains and city with Hickory Smoke Distress ink, the ground with Mowed Lawn and Tea Dye Distress inks, and then sprinkled them all with the water. After this, I adhered all details (landscape and characters) to the transparency with the glue or the foam tape. I only left one dragon to place it inside of the card. As the sentiment, I used ‘hello’ die cut of the red glitter foam.
To create the inside panel of the card, I blended with Tumbled Glass Distress ink through Mini Clouds Edges stencil. And I added some mountain silhouettes using the die cut negative and Hickory Smoke Distress ink. And adhered there the last dragon.

Studio Monday with Nina-Marie: Decorated Tea Bags
Hello crafters, it’s Nina-Marie here with you! Welcome back to a brand new National Craft Month edition of Studio Monday! Because March is National Craft Month, we are focusing on making super-easy, DIY projects with some of your cardmaking or scrapbooking supplies. Today’s project is how to make decorated tea bags! These are perfect for creating as gifts for friends or family members.
I love the images from Altenew’s Tea Time stamp set; aren’t they cute? The artsy, hand drawn style of them inspired me to break out my watercolors and do some loose watercoloring, which is my favorite way to watercolor. You don’t have to use this set however to make these tea bags; if you have a favorite set of images (in any theme), that would be awesome too!
The tags are from Pretty Pink Posh’s Mini Tag die set; I loved the size of these dies, and they fit really well with the images from Tea Time.
Here are some close up shots of the finished tags…
I hope you will check out the video to see how I made these cuties! Thanks for tuning in with me today… I will be back again next week with a new tutorial for you!
