    I too love Mama Elephant. I often wonder where people come up with the names for their sites like Mama Elephant.
    You’re coloring is spot on. Oh wait, you missed a spot! LOL I love how you added some sparkles to it. Do you ever feel that glitter is so much fun until you get some on your tablecloth and it’s such a pain to get it off? I hate that! I have one of those lint rollers somewhere for that, I just wish there was a better way to do it. I always feel that while the roller cleans it up, you’re wasting that glitter because you can’t get it back in the bottle or jar. If I was smart like some of the people on Shark Tank, I would invent a glitter container where the glitter went just where you wanted it and there was a way to not waste any of it. Note to self: Get on that idea today. LOL I love Stickles but a whole bunch of my bottles are clogged. There should be a way to have no clog bottles. I guess I have a lot of creating to do to solve these problems!
    I think Mama Elephant makes some adorable stamps and yours are some of them. My mom & my sister knit so I love the knitting sheep. I may have to get that one and use it on them.
    Again, another adorable and nicely colored stamp and future card. I just love what you do but I’m afraid that if I keep telling you, your head is going to be THIS BIG. LOL

  13. Cindy C. says

    November 10, 2016 at 11:01 am

    Thank you Mama Elephant!! Thank you Kathy, really fun scene!!

  14. Marianne says

    November 10, 2016 at 11:06 am

    Yep! I need more time too! Just took a 1 hour nap or so I thought, and woke up 2 hours later. DH had more surgery a few weeks ago (minor this time), but it does mean I need to take over some of his normal tasks, such as walking the dog. It seems there’s even more surgery in the near future since the bowel check-ups revealed a nasty spot on DH’s lung. .. At least we seem to have caught it in time (once again).
    Cute scene BTW.
    Hugs, Marianne x

    • Kathy Racoosin says

      November 13, 2016 at 12:40 pm

  20. Lisa T says

    Agree completely Mama Elephant are hard to not love! They do cute brilliantly and then they can also do elegant – I have the Winter Wonderland set (along with many others) and it is one of my all time favourites. Your colouring of Pix is gorgeous, great combination and the trees look great with that little hint of blue/green. Super!

  21. Jean Bullock says

    November 10, 2016 at 12:50 pm

    Hi Kathy!
    First of all, thank you for a chance to win this super cute stamp set from Mama Elephant! I have never tried their stamps, but they are so precious!

    I love how you colored these! You didn’t stamp it all by masking it all first. That’s a big time saver! Just stamping them on plain cardstock, not worrying about going out of tge lines is a great trick for me! My hands seem to shake when i’m near the edges of the stamp lines!

    This card is so cute!

    He-IS-Able!
