A quick cute rock out!

Hi everybody,

Jill here, and this week, I've got a quick & cute card suitable for any budding rockstars...

Using Mama Elephant's Rocks and Paws.

I started by die-cutting a circle from masking paper, and ink blending through it, in yellow, to create my 'spotlight'.  I then stamped out this awesome little puppy and a couple of speakers, coloured them using colour pencils, and fussy-cut.  I'm pretty obsessed with my little doggy, so used him as inspiration :) 

This set is so much fun.  You get six different doggies, all of which are sooooo cute...and even this little David Bowie inspired lightening bolt to add on to them if you so wish, which of course...I do!  

I added a semi-circle of black card, and a strip of silver to build up a stage and adhered in place.

I decided to use a sentiment built-up from Mama Elephant's Monster Jam set as it just fit so perfectly, so stamped that straight onto my card in black.  I added a few little splatters of watered down black ink across my panel, and popped my little scene on top using foam tape.  

I finished by embellishing with a scattering of gems coz you know...rockstar haha!

I really hope you like, as always, everything used is linked below.

See you next week.

Get your rocks off!

Hi everybody,

Jill here, and this week, I am rocking out!

Using the amazing new Rock and Paws set from Mama Elephant.

I love it when a company releases something so different, so fun, and so me!  And this definitely ticks all those boxes...dogs with guitars, rocking out...what more could you possibly ask for?  I, literally, could not wait to ink these bad boys up!

I started by inking up my background to create what is meant to be a spotlight on a stage, blending yellows towards the centre and greys and blacks around the outer edges.  I then stamped out these cool guys from the Rock and Paws set, coloured with my Copics, and fussy-cut.  The Rock and Paws set is from Mama Elephant's latest release, and if you haven't already checked it out - you really must.  I mean come on...one of the cute puppies even has Kiss make-up on haha.  So, so brilliant!

I gave my keyboard player a red sparkly keyboard and matching glasses, and my guitarist got a matching red sparkly guitar using some Sakura sparkle pens.  I added a couple of pieces of grey and black card to the bottom to create a stage, cut the whole panel out using Lawn Fawn's Cross Stitched Rectangles, and built up my little doggy band on top!  I stamped out and coloured a couple of speakers to add to my scene (coz all good gigs need a decent sound system), and added the little 'Rock On' sentiment from the same set.  I completed my sentiment, 'Rock on, it's your birthday', using Lawn Fawn's 'Year Six' set (I use this one tiny stamp set so many times to finish of a sentiment - worth the few pound just for that alone let alone the uber cute shellfish in there!).  I added  a slick of Glossy Accents to my keyboard players glasses and my singer's microphone, and finished my card off with a scattering of sparkles.

I really hope you like it, and as always, everything I used is linked below.

See you next week, and until then...rock on!
