Hi everyone! Purple Onion Stamps recently had a new release of some Julian Charlton images, and they are so fun! I created this “thinking of you” card for a sweet friend of mine. I think we all have a lot on our minds right now, and with so much unknown, all of our friends could use this card in their mailbox.
I started by coloring the image with Copic markers. How sweet is that elephant?! I then masked the image and ink blended over it with Distress Inks (Wilted Violet, Faded Jeans, and Chipped Sapphire).
Want to know a secret? I accidentally mis-stamped my sentiment, and because it is a red rubber stamp it was impossible to realign…. so that is why I cut a cute sentiment banner 😉 Remember- there are no mistakes in cardmaking and you can usually find a creative “fix” for oopsies!
Lastly, I used some black Ranger Enamel Accents here and there for an accent.
I already popped this in the mail to my sweet friend, I hope she gets it soon 🙂
love the elephant monkey team and this card. Reminded me how much I love Purple Onion so I shopped their sale. : )

Wonderful — really cute and the messages are all really spot-on.
A real winner. LOVE Purple Onion’s stuff.
Love elephants. This one is darling.
