CYS- Elephant or Flamingo

Its the 28th, so that means digging through my 'STASH' and creating with older and neglected items in my crafting room. Whoops, looks like I am a day early.....


  I have no clue where I got this stamp set- it is in my envelope of clear stamps that I got rid of all of the outer packaging in an attempt to create storage that was less bulky. I should have made notes on them with stickers.....  Anyway, I used an edge die (not marked with where I got this either), cut off the edge so the layers stay connected and made a one layer card. On the bottom layer, the outer dots were embossed, but not popped out.
  I stamped the image using Nuvo Hybrid ink and colored the image using Prismacolor pencils. I have not gotten them out for ages!
  This is for my mother- she will be 89 in a couple of weeks : )

The CYS group can be located here.  List mom Barb had the brilliant idea- lets use our stash items- with a monthly theme, I am sure finding no shortage of items to use in my creative space for this challenge...!!! Even those in the 'get rid of' pile....... HERE is a link to all of the June cards at Splitcoaststampers for this challenge.

 The group says closed- but we ARE open to new members!

Challenges:
TBD

Thanks for stopping by!
