Hello again everyone! This is our first Mix it up Monday of the new year on the Doodlebugs blog. I hope your holidays were wonderful and you’re ready to take on new adventures in 2025! Today I’ve got a little scene card to share featuring a combo of Waffle Flower and Mama Elephant goodies.
I started by die cutting various elements from the Waffle Flower die sets – Inquisitive Frogs and Pond with Lily Pads. I used liquid glue to adhere the elements together and a little ink blending on the frog tummy and cattail stems.
Next, I ink blended teal and blue on a white piece of cardstock and splattered it with water. Once that was dry I cut the panel out using the second largest die in the Mama Elephant Mod Heart die set. I love the uneven, imperfect look it has. Using the froggie as a guide, I stamped the water ring image from Waffle Flower’s Pond of You stamp set. Then I started assembling my images with liquid glue. The frog and front lily pad are popped up with foam tape.
I love the sentiments in the Pond of You stamp set but I ran out of room because they are quite large so I went digging for my favorite Mama Elephant frog stamp set – Hello Froggy. I stamped the sentiment with teal ink to blend in a bit with the sky. I popped the panel up on a white card base with foam tape but something just wasn’t quite right yet.
So I pulled the Waffle Flower Pond of You stamps back out and stamped the awesome dragonflies in gray ink across the blank sky. Much better! I love how this turned out!
