Happy Mix it up Monday everyone! This is Amanda from Twiddler's Nook with some seriously monstrous birthday wishes! These new Mama Elephant monsters are adorable and are going to be so fun to color in all the different colorways over time. I'm absolutely smitten!

After stamping and coloring these cuties, I used the coordinating dies to cut them out. Then I switched to my background because it was going to need time to dry.

For that I used the Pretty Pink Posh Layered Candles stencil set. I inked them up at a gradient angle for the base candle shape, then added the flames, then for the detail layer, I inked up the same colors again but after that I wiped the stencil off and added a layer of glossy gel over the top for some dimension that kept the color underneath. Once the glossy gel was dry, I added a little copic marker to the flames for some extra dimension there too.

For my sentiment, I cut the Pretty Pink Posh Wish Big dies from white cardstock 3 times and used liquid glue to adhere the layers together. Then I stamped and heat embossed a sentiment from the Mama Elephant Monster Hugs set my images came from and cut it out with a Pretty Pink Posh Sentiment Strip die.

Next I just adhered all my layers together. The stenciled panel went on a card base with liquid glue, then my wish big sentiment the same way. Then I added the images and embossed sentiment strip with foam squares and strips.
For finishing touches I just added black glaze pen to the monster eyes and a little white gel pen highlight to the balloon.
I appreciate you sharing your time with me. Have a fabulous day!
