We can sure be carried away with these two love birds by <a href="http://mycasestudies.blogspot.com/2014/12/cherish.html">Maureen</a>! She stamped a pair of penguins from <a href="http://mamaelephant.com/products/artic-penguins">Arctic Penguins</a> and gave them a balloon from <a href="http://mamaelephant.com/products/party-kit">Party Kit</a>. She also put them on a hill by using <a href="http://mamaelephant.com/products/remember-december">Landscape Trio</a> and stamped a sentiment from <a href="http://mamaelephant.com/products/remember-december">Remember December</a>. </div>

Love is certainly in the air during the holidays when we get together with friends and family. It is also certainly wonderful when it is spent with "thee one!" We hope to get another early start in making those cards for the ones we love. Please join us in December's Challenge with your heart filled. </div>

Hi All! Welcome to Mama Elephant's August Challenge. We have been seeing a lot of watercolor projects all over the place and they are just so fabulous! We have also tested and love the new <a href="http://mamaelephant.com/products/zig-kuretake-gansai-tambi-36-color-set">Gansai Tambi Watercolor set</a> from Kuretake which comes in 36 gorgeous colors! Since we love the classic dreamy watercolor look and we are always in a need for birthday cards, this will be a great challenge for you!</div>

Welcome to the new Mama Elephant and me challenge blog! ME and me? M&M? We can have so much fun just with the word play! :) This blog will be dedicated to monthly challenges featuring YOUR creativity along with fellow ME fans all around the world!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I know we all love our crafty goods, so let's really put them to use! I hope this blog will challenge you to stretch yourself and your stamps! I always think it's fun to see how one challenge can spark so many different creations. Mama Elephant will be here to provide that jump start with different challenges that will make you use your ME stamps and perhaps find and perfect your personal styles while at it! Over the course of time, I hope you create a collection of cards that you'll be proud of because you made it! We decided to call it Mama Elephant and me because it's all about Mama Elephant and you!</div>
