Mama Elephant April Stampede
April 15, 2013
Welcome to the Mama Elephant April Design Team blog hop! Our March release is now live and available for purchase in the store: www.mamaelephant.com.
For the Stampede, I used both Central Park and Bling together. This is definitely one of my favorite cards for this release ♥
I blended four colors together onto the cardstock to create a romantic sunset background. I then stamped the cityscape (love!), fussy cut it and adhered it onto the card base with foam tape.
To celebrate the new release, Mama Elephant is giving away 3 gift certificates worth $20.00 each to 3 lucky people! Winners will be chosen at random from the collective blogs in the Stampede. Winners will be announced on the blog on Friday, April 19th.
