Peachy Keen June Sneak Peeks Day 2

Welcome back for our second day of circus fun!
Today, we’re bringing you samples of our creations made with the Elephant Parade and It’s Showtime stamp sets.   Images in these two great sets invoke all the excitement of the circus.  From the cutest elephants you’ve EVER seen to tickets and big top tents, along with some great coordinating sentiments, these sets will be GREAT as you plan, prepare and create your Summer projects!

One of my FAV things about the Circus is the elephants! They're so cute and such gentle giants!
So of course, I HAD to make this card with that adorable elephant!  LOL!





I used the Elephant Parade stamp set for this card
The card is a 5X5 and I only used 1 pattern paper. I cut the border and flower with my Cameo and the mat is cut using the Jaded Blossom Layered Frame and Journal Die. I used my sewing machine to stitch around the blue mat and added some twine around the border strip and in the center of the flower.
I colored the elephant with Copic markers and then used my white gel pen to add all the "speckles". I also stamped the sentiment from this set. 
PRIZE ALERT
For your chance to win the stamp sets being showcased tonight,  just leave a comment.  Want even more chances to win?   Be sure to leave comments on the PKS Blog, as well as our designer blogs and you”ll get one entry for each comment!  Winner will be announced in tomorrow’s sneak peek blog post onThe Peachy Keen Stamps Blog.
