My niece's birthday is tomorrow and I have been struggling with actually getting up the mojo to make her a card. I don't know if it is because I was sick all weekend, or what, but I was just not feeling it. That is, until I saw the MFT sketch this week AND remembered that I have this ADORABLE elephant stamp that is just perfect for paper piecing. Then, I started to feel it. Isn't that little guy soooo cute?!
Supplies:
Stamps: Wild Rose Studio elephant; YNS "Silly Monsters" sentiment
