so succulent {mama elephant stampede}




Welcome to the Mama Elephant Release Design Team blog hop!

The newest release is now live and available for purchase in the store!

www.mamaelephant.com

Thank you all so much for the sweet comments and reactions to Potted Pretties so far! I am over the moon, and can't wait to see you create with it!

I used Potted Pretties and Sketchy Letters to create this punny card:

so succulent {mama elephant stampede}

FYI: I checked. a cactus can be considered part of the succulent family. who knew? haha. it made my card work.

I gave my sweet cactus a little bow, added a tiny hearted speech bubble, and framed her out with delicate sprigs.

so succulent {mama elephant stampede}

I hope you like her!
