Elmo is one of the easiest Sesame Street characters to make into a card.
I used the 113468 Scallop Circle Bigz Die for his head,
the 122125 3" Circle Original Die, cut in half, for his mouth,
the 119860 1 3/8" Circle Punch for the white part of his eyes,
the 119868 1" Circle Punch for the black part of his eyes and for his nose.
Our youngest grandgirl loves Elmo. Even though her second b-day party was a Rainbow theme, I had to make her an Elmo card. She opened the envelope and immedately said "Elmo". And she stared and stared at it. That was so fun to watch! If you want to make an Elmo card, let me know. I have some tips I can share with you.
Here are two samples from Leadership using the 125520 Take It to Heart stamp set. This stamp set is in the Occasions Mini Catalog. It coordinates with the 125599 Hearts Collection Framelits Dies, which cut the heart shapes using the 113439 Big Shot Die Cutting Machine.
This card also features the 125596 Fashionable Hearts Embosslits Die and the 125595 Adorning Accents Edgelits Dies.
If you are a quilter, then the new 125597 Dresden Designs Bigz L Die in the Occasions mini catalog is for you! Check out this awesome video from Stampin Up! This Die can also be used for papercrafting projects.
I'm loving my creative time using the 125525 Apothecary Art Stamp Set and 125598 Framelits Labels Collection from the Occasions Mini Catalog. Creating has gone to a new level with a coordinating stamp set to go with the Framelits. There are six different size shapes that can be layered or used individually in the Framelits. I was quite surprised how sturdy the Framelits are when they are put through the Big Shot.
