Happy Saturday! Popping in here quick today with another card share featuring new stamps and dies from the Mama Elephant March 2021 Release! The Comic Cover Basic Creative Cuts Die is the perfect backdrop for these darling Little Ninja Agenda images. I just love how each opening is perfect for telling little "mini" stories in each opening. I just love the "storyboard" style of both the Comic Cover Basic and Slim Comic Strip.

Today I'm sharing a couple of slimline cards featuring brand new stamps, dies, and stencils from the new release. I've paired these new layering stamps with some of my favorite Pinkfresh Studio inks for these sweet and pretty designs! I love the way the new slimline stencils add soft, subtle patterns to each card's background, and are the perfect backdrops to the Sweet Garden Birds Set, Sweet Garden Blooms Set, and XL Greetings 2!
