Today, I’m sharing an encouragement card that combines two recently-released Mama Elephant stamp sets – “Honey Bunny” and “True Friend.”
I paper-pieced the bunny pair (blue and pink for boy and girl), and they sat on my work table overnight. I kept wondering how to anchor them to the card base without them getting lost. After resting on the problem, I decided to use the Poppystamps window showing a gray, rainy day as a metaphor for a “tough time” that the bunnies would be handling together. The “True Friend” set is fabulous, and I can see using those sentiments, both paired and alone, on a lot of future projects. For the raindrops, I used the stencil I recently created cutting the Crafter’s Workshop Blank Stencil material with the Memory Box “A Little Rain” die (I also used the stencil on this card).
Supplies: Studio Calico patterned paper
This is just so gorgeous!! I love that you have the raindrops behind the window, really brings the ‘bunnies’ alive, as if they are actually waiting for it to stop so they can go and play. Genius!!
Adorable Jean! love them paper pieced, sitting at the window with it raining outside. Definitely Spring-like and so cute with the sentiment!
Jean, this is darling and sweet and perfect for encouragement. I love your metaphor.
